Question about metadata

Hi

I just got serviio up and running on my thecus nas. I can play my files on my Samsung tv, that is all good :-)

My question is now. When i choose metadata form online providers, what can i expect to see on my Samsung. All i see now is a very small thumbnail of the movie, can i get more than that or is that not possible with dlna?
Thx for answer :-)

Brian

PS: If i include xmbc nfo and tell to use that as meta data, the files dosent show on tv?

Re: Question about metadata

Yep, TVs usually don't display any additional metadata.

I have the same issue so... I think it's a TV DLNA client side limit that not support the retrieving of metadata thumbnail.. right??

Re: Question about metadata

the spec allows for all sorts of metadata, Serviio sends some of it, but most clients ignore it
