quote:It will be good to have a media/network closet, but you're not going to be able to share Roku/AppleTV between multiple TVs. I mean it might be possible if you jump through hoops, but to me it seems silly because either multiple TVs will have to show the same show, or one TV will use the device and the others won't be able to at the same time. You would also have to deal with the range of the remote if the TV you're watching is too far from the media closet.
Also if I buy a neat piece of hardware such as a Roku, Apple TV, etc. it could hopefully be shared by multiple TVs.
If your concern is clutter around the TVs, just get Roku sticks, or get the regular boxes and velcro them to the back of your TVs. They're small.

sticks for the non-4K tvs, boxes for the 4K tvs.
with a house that big, the cost of these is insignificant.

Good point. We use the Roku in our master bedroom every day so they are super useful. We use our DVD player a few times a year probably. We use Directv pretty much daily as well.
It will be me, my wife and daughter living in the house. So probably we'll never need more than 1 DVD player and 3 DirecTv boxes going at any one time. Is it doable to keeps these in the rack system as a central location?
