I want to use my raspberry pi 2 as movie / TV serie player. But instead of streaming content I want it to load the stuff from my USB hdd. I don't want it to download information of it but use the information from my USB hdd (so every file will be downloaden and added to the hdd manually through a PC) And then display those files in a list Like on netflix and popcorntime and when u press it you see information of the movie/episode also if possible being able to enable/disable subtitle before starting to watch.

I Have wifi on the pi and I want it to download Movies overnight wich I will place correctly on the hdd and add cover and info later with my pc.

Is there any clear tutorial for this? Havent been able to find one so far :(

If you are using raspbian check out kodi if you haven't already. Install it by sudo apt-get install kodi. And set it to autostart.

or try openELEC or OSMC from here

Edit:

  • Detailed instruction on installing kodi can be found here or here.

  • Since you already have ssh installed by default you can use filezilla or fireftp addon for firefox to transfer files from PC.

  • You can also check the quick start guide for kodi here
