BX580 video metadata question

Hi All ... I'm trying out this product to see if the metadata capability will provide me with movie and TV series episode descriptions. I have it installed, and the metadata service is retrieving cover art and providing actor, director, etc categories I can use.

What I'd really like is to be able to see the summary descriptions of my video files. I'm using an Xbox 360 as an extender to Media Center and Media Browser, and it does a fantastic job of displaying all this. Problem is the Xbox can be finicky about the files it can plan, and I'm finding the LG player is much better at playback. Thanks!

ok :s what actualy is your question?

Can I get movie descriptions from my LG player interface? I know it would never be this sophisticated, but this is an example of what I get from the Xbox setup: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3322/334 ... 6f86b9.jpg

i dont know have u tried asking on the LG forums ? or even MR Google ?

I've Googled my brains out, and I'll try LG.

Is what I'm asking possible on blu-ray players in general? Or is this something available only on dedicated media players?

generaly no its not, but i cant comment for LG as i have never seen their DLNA interface, although i will warn you that LG DLNA support is shockingly bad and your better off going down samsung, sony or Panasonic routes, but i know for fact you cant get that info on panasonic or samsung, and from memory i dont think you can on sony either and they are the 3 top brands for DLNA.

OK thanks. Looks like I'm out of luck.
