My current Mac mini is an old first gen that I use to store media that I watch on my Xbox 360. I'm considering upgrading to a new one, installing Plex, and using it as a HTPC instead of the Xbox. I have a couple of questions:
1) Can use an Apple remote (the one that comes with an ATV) to control Plex running on a Mac mini?
2) Will a universal remote work to control the Mac mini at all? For instance, can a Logitech Harmony be used to launch and then control Plex without requiring the use of a keyboard/mouse?
3) Am I correct in my understanding that I can use Plex to store media files on my Mac mini at home and then warch them on my MacBook Pro or iPhone when I am away from home?
