Yes, it will definately be possible. Out of the box it should kind of work OK, but won't be great. If you get one please let me know how it works.

I'm planning on spending some time developing an updated TV UI to be used across Android TV boxes, Google TV, Android TV and possibly Amazon Fire TV.

My phone is a Galaxy Note II running Android 4.4.2. My main Serviio server is on WinXP (but seldom-used instances also on Win7 and Linux). What I do now is find a video to watch using ServiiGo, but launch it using the DLNA feature built into the TV or BD player. I'd rather just tap "Play" in ServiiGo.

If I browse my Serviio videos with ServiiGo and press its Play button, I'm offered several video apps, two of which have the capability to play the video on my devices (2 Sony BD players, a Sony TV and a Samsung TV): BubbleUPnP and "Video Player" (which is either an Android app or Samsung app?).

The problem is that for both of these programs, the video stops playing on the TV if I exit the app and exit ServiiGo, turn off the phone, leave the house, etc. I would like to be able to exit and have the video keep playing. This implies that I also don't care to have the phone app be able to control the TV in any way (pause, RWD, etc) once the playback is started.

It's important of course that Serviio sees the TV or BD player as the renderer, and uses its profile to decide its capabilities and whether transcoding is required, etc.

I thought the above was called "casting", but I've seen discussions of "casting" that involve continued control of the TV with the app. There's nothing wrong with that extra capability, as long as it's not _required_ to keep the app running for the duration of the video playback.

I'm not sure if I'm describing an enhancement to ServiiGo, or if I just don't have the right playback video app installed on my phone.

Is it possible to allow viewing images that are already cached when there is no internet?

I was in a plane and I wanted to show some pictures of my kids to my friend that was flying with me but when I try to opening the App, it did not allowed me to view any images. The work around was to use another app and navigate to the cached folder where ServiioGo stores the images. It would have been nice if ServiioGo still able to function when there is no internet (able to show images that are cached when there is no internet)
