MSKX,

OK, thanks.

Yeah I’d rather not be too reliant on my (limited) command line skills!

Hopefully the Pi4 with 8gb is comfortable enough with a slightly heavier distro.

MSKX,

It will be living in the home office pretty close to a monitor, so I’m happy enough to plug it in and use a screen to set everything up. But hopefully once it’s up and running, I’ll rarely need to use a screen and can check on the apps via a browser on my laptop/tablet/phone.

In any case, I’ll check out the VNC option linked above, thanks.

I guess it probably makes sense to start with Raspbian then and see how that goes first.

I’ve also heard about OSMC, which is media player centric distro. Although given I am not actually using this thing as a front end (at least for now), that might be a waste.

MSKX,

Thanks, will look that up.

MSKX,

Awesome! Thanks for that.

MSKX,

Out of curiosity, what hardware are you using?
