If so, how would I go about doing this?.

Is it actually possible to play a video natively in the OS (in an app like VLC) before the entire video is stored on the local disk, either in storage or in cache?.

Is there an alternative to Kodi that works on all major OS's, where the files are instantly available and the caching system works like YouTube, Netflix, where only a small portion of the file is cached at once?.

On their website, it says that it only caches up to ~60MB at a time, meaning you can start watching/listening instantly, and the file doesn't need to be cached in its entirety. On desktop or mobile, it's useless! But, as far as functionality, the way it retrieves files is perfect. The closest I've got to making this work is with Kodi, but the interface is horrible on anything other than a TV. This is very inconvenient for me, as I have a rather slow internet connection, monthly transfer limits, and you have to wait until the file has been cached before you can watch. This defeats the whole purpose of having the files saved to the cloud, as every time you want to watch a video, the entire file has to be cached.

These sound great in prinicple, but the issue with all of them is that the entire file has to be cached first before you can watch/listen. These apps mount your cloud storage as a network drive and allow you to store files on the cloud and have "instant" access. The solutions I have come across so far are: I would like these files to be available instantly from any of my devices.

So, this seems to be an issue that many people are having, and so many forum posts say that PlexCloud is the solution, but it isn't available anymore, so I want to find another way.Įssentially, I would like to free up space on my local machine, offloading my movies and music to the cloud. It shows you a list of cloud storage services you can connect to and once you are connected, they are displayed at the left-hand side.TL:DR - How can I stream content (specifically music and videos) from a Cloud Storage solution, like Google Drive without having the entire file cached first? My goal is to create a Netflix/YouTube-esque experience with my movie/music library. The user interface is simple to understand. When you have downloaded the application, you will be presented with the CloudMounter window.

Using CloudMounterĪ personal license for CloudMonter retails at $29.99+VAT, but you can try it out for 14 days free of charge (as always, I recommend trialling software before handing over any money to make sure it does what you need). Hard drives seem a better option at this time given the pricing of cloud storage, but I love the idea of mapping Dropbox as a local drive particularly as I have so much unusued storage to use on Dropbox. In the short term, I don’t think Dropbox/CloudMounter is the right solution for me for archiving old YouTube videos. I use Google Drive and Microsoft OneDrive occasionally and use Amazon S3 for server backups, but its CloudMounter’s support for Dropbox that peaked my interest as I have been using the premium version of Dropbox for years and I am currently only using around 10% of my 1TB allocation.
