View file names instead of movie name

I would like to have the option in Serviio Console to show file names for movies instead of movie name.
Preferable also to have the option to turn on/off showing file extension.

Option to turn off "auto play next"

If the next video automatically plays, thats down to your TV etc... and nothing to do with Serviio.

If you want to see your movies with their original file names, why don't you use the folder view?

See your TV manual, with my Bravia the default was auto, on the settings i could change it.

filenames with file extensions
Filenames with extensions does show in the "Folder" catergory
Sony Bravia 2010 52NX803 - Sony PS3 - Xbox 360
Serviio running on QNAP NAS 639 Pro - 1.6 Intel Dual Core - 2GB RAM and QNAP NAS 121 - 2Ghz ARM Marvell - 1GB RAM
Console using ServiiDroid for Android, ServiiMetro and ServiiWP for Windows Phone and WebUI for iOS

It is NOT up to my TV to decide if next movie/episode plays - my TV does not communicate with Serviio. It is a built in function that it automatically plays the next.

Yes, I can use the folder view, but choosing for example Series is a much better way if the series are in different folders.

I don't understand what the TV has to do with this. My TV is as dumb as a monitor or a speaker: it just shows what is outputted from the computer.

Oh I thought you were using a DLNA client that we built into your TV seeing as you didn't say otherwise. Are you using MediaBrowser on your PC's web browser then?
