    I have a tech question.

    So I want to put all (or most) of my dvd and blu-rays on my Tv so that I can just play what I want when I want. What should I use to do this, an external hard drive?

    You need to rip them onto your PC/external into AVI , MKV, or what have you. You can find free apps or trials....just google DVD ripper/burner. Then dump onto your TV from the hard drive. Make sure you know what types of video files your TV can play.

    So I rip them onto an external drive, connect that drive to my tv via HDMI, and play from there?

    Yep, there are 2 versions of the WD TV live. One streams from a networked drive and one has a drive built in. They are on amazon.

    My name was supposed to be French fries with mayo but I was drunk when I signed up.

    You can also just call me "Dick".

    We have a winner, I think?

    That is exactly what I was looking for that I never knew existed. Thank you so much.
