I have 16TB NAS dedicated to storing TV shows. It is just a cabinet with ryzen 2600 and no graphics card. I have installed openmediavault in it to access it via smb to other devices. I am an absolute noob in setting up a server. Please tell me how I should go on about turning it into a media consumption machine.

P. S: I usually use VLC on android and MPV on linux to consume the media.

    DDNS takes about the same amount of time to get running these days, something like Caddy + DuckDNS goes together pretty easy. Even for purely personal use, I use DDNS for media access and save the VPN for share access and admin work.

    Either way works though.

      I have DSlite on my home internet connection, which makes DDNS pretty much impossible. OP should check for that.
