Serviio

Would it be possible for Serviio to include a DLNA controller built in similar to the windows "play to" context menu entry.

The play to is surprisingly useful when browsing your own files without having to load up another app, but one big downside is that play to only works with media native to windows media player, you wont get anything for media like flac or mkv and so on. UPnP/DLNA controllers are also incredibly rare on the desktop whether it be windows, osx or ubuntu, very few applications have support built in while they are a dime a dozen on phones.

A Serviio context menu available from right clicking on any media file Serviio supports could list any DLNA digital media renderers that you could push the media to.

It's a pro feature I wouldn't mind paying for.

My Philips Streamium NP2900 device works with Serviio as it should.

But I am also missing the feature to use the web browser to control DLNA renderers.
That would be a great enhancement - it would be worth an investment as alternatives are hard to find on the desktop.

I have added a ticket so that it's recorded
