Panasonic TV (TH-L50ET60A) and .wtv files
Hi there,
Brand new user here - I came across Serviio after a google search because I was looking for a solution to stream wtv (that's Windows Media Center recorded tv files) format files from my desktop PC to my Panasonic TV. The Viera side of it can't play wtv files natively; so I was hoping to find a solution that would do the necessary transcoding on the fly - and Serviio looked like it might be the answer. Have got it all set up dead easily and I'm pleased to say the wtv files will now play on the tv perfectly! Whatever transcoding needs to be done to make the TV happy seems to be happening automatically, which is wonderful.
However, the metadata for each wtv file seems to be missing - what I mean by that is all the tv recordings appear in a single list; there's no sorting/grouping by series, there's no info/synopsis on each show, there's no date showing up for each of the recordings, etc... That sort of thing. Just a long flat list of filenames really.
So, I was wondering, is there anything I can do to help get the metadata across into the Viera/TV side of the world?
Many thanks!
