I use Archos video player on a firetv and connect to my miniDLNA instance. Archos gives you all of the movie posters, imdb descriptions, actor info etc etc. my dvr recordings are also served from minidlna which allows archos to pop up “new episodes!” on recently added series episodes

What is the benefit of this being a server side function?

Remote access and a single library of truth across multiple clients - keeping track of what’s been watched and when. There’s other bits, but that’s the most important.

Am I the only one in this thread doesn't regularly fall asleep or get distracted watching a show/movie? Multiple times a week in having to fight to find which episode or where in the movie I was. This is painful with the atrociously slow uis of every app I use.

Archos flys and this is in the face of Amazon's Fire OS which is not the fastest UI at all.
