Using Alexa to watch videos
Hi,
I have been using Serviio now for a couple of years and love it.
I recently upgraded to 2.0 Pro version to open Serviio via Alexa.
I want to play my box set of Friends which comes in sub folders of series, i.e series 1, series 2, series 3 via Alexa/Serviio.
I can play an episode via Alexa but then I see there is a limitation in the serviio docs which states that it can only play one file from a folder so I have used ffmpeg to encode all files into one huge mp4 file to see if that would keep playing which obviously it does but then everytime I want to watch Friends again it goes back to the start of this huge file rather than carry on where it left off playing, is there any way to ask Serviio to carry on playing in the position it stopped playing?
Regards
