and currently im downloading VLC player via apt-get install vlc which means i will be able to play my media files just like i would on my regular pc. after mounting, im able to access the files on the drive via file manager. which is surprising because its running off a usb port directly on the pi and not a powered usb hub. Ok, after doing some more work i was able to get my hard drive to auto mount. I want to have my raspberry pi as the small computer it is and still be able to have it be a self contained media centre. ive mounted the hard drive i think, and i still need to set it up to automount, but after that im lost, all the tutorials that i have found are all about setting it up as XBMC server that is linked to a main pc that has all the files on it. Im very new to all this, and i want to know if its possibly to have my raspberry pi play movies and such that i have stored on a WD My passport 500GB External Hard Drive.
