The fusion between the Minitel and the Raspberry is like milk and cereals: it's works perfectly!
It is very simple to understand: the Minitel have a serial socket, so with the Raspi, you plug a FTDI and voilà.
With this, I've been able to build a project to control the Logitec Media Server;
It's not much for now, but with time, it'll grow !

Interesting project, I hope your media server application will grow as you wish ! As an alternative to USB FTDI, you can connect to uart with some level shift. You could make it wireless as well using ssh or bluetooth with my board #MINITEL + ESP32 ;)
