Mac mini suggestion

[cablegooru81]

Hello thanks in advance for any info, I'm currently a PC person and have several
IOS devices and thinking about getting a Mac mini to put in my living room as a media server basically. What I am wanting to know is will the Mac mini be able to support/play/stream a 1080p bluray file IE I am starting to backup some bluray movies onto my backup drive and the PC will play them it's just a little jittery. Not really have budget saved up to go for MacBook Pro yet and curious on what the mini can handle.

Thanks for your input

Yes I use my pc to rip the blueray movies to my external hard drive in a mkv format. Not really sure what format the mini will handle. Thanks
