And every time it was calling artworks from fanart site, which was dynamically updated in the. but in reality that menu doesn't existed in my server setup. in documentation they shown a checkbox to download everything in local. Like i don't want the backdrop, posters, etc to fetch from internet all the time. I found emby documentation is rather confusing and misguiding - many menu item listed in 'official documentation' are missing in actual install. ( In distant future, if i think of a dedicated server only for media. Really liked the overall presentation and the way media is presented in TV. Given emby a try as well, it not free - 14 days trial in fireTv. Metadata - its just big posters, which its automatically picking from the same location as my media, making a nice video wall - i can live with. ( i never wanted my server to do any kind of transcoding and destroy audio/video quality anyways). Almost everything is passed to the hardware for pure quality.

I'm really surprised by this playback quality of this player, the ability to pass-through is amazing.

Im settling with vimu for fire tv for time being. There was a time I had used Kodi extensively with numerous addons for streaming live tv etc when I was in US but now with advent of so many easy to use (of course illegal) streaming apps and most of the desi kodi addons dead, people I guess shifted to these apps.Ĭlick to expand.indeed, infuse is the one of the best dlna player available out there. I did try Kodi but I only tried with jellyfin server and not UpnP or so and felt it was overkill for my usage. I have also great things about Infuse on Apple TV. Infuse on iOS / iPad is great, but buying pro is super duper expensive at like 7000-8000 Rupees. I am now having Raspberry Pi 4 and using it as Jellyfin server and on Firestick I use Jellyfin's own app and on my iPad, I use infuse pro (sideloaded) and I also now have all metadata etc. Earlier, I used VLC on my firestick to access my pen drive which was connected to wifi router so I was essentially using UPnP / Samba / Something. I wanted exactly what you are asking, just that I wanted the watched / continue playing / next up etc information to sync across devices (iOS / Android).
