Hi, I just got a Synology 918+ NAS. I'm trying various options to show all my movies on TV shows on it. Basically, I'd like to have the old-style Windows Media Server interface, e.g.. I have all my films sorted carefully in different folders and would like to navigate using these folders. Simp0lified example: Movies folder Folder.jpg (indicating movies) Comedy folder Folder.jpg (indicating Comedy) Comedy Movie 1.avi Comedy Movie 1.jpg Comedy Movie 2.avi Comedy Movie 2.jpg Action folder Folder.jpg (indicating action) Action Movie 1.avi Action Movie 1.jpg Action Movie 2.avi Action Movie 2.jpg I have the latest WebOS installed. When I try to use the built-in video-photos DLNA player it doesn't show the folder.jpg for each folder, the folders just have a generic icon. Then the film icons (e.g. "action movie 1.jpg") are truncated at the top & bottom,with pretty poor quality. But at least I can navigate by folder. My next try was to use Plex. It shows each films icon beautifully and some info from the internet (nice to have, but I don't really need). But it doesn't show the folder icons, in fact it doesn't show folders at all, everything seems to be lumped into one big pile. I tried various profiles in the Synology DSM Media Server for the TVs. Can anyone recommend some media server that behaves like to old Windows Media Server? Seems Kodi isn't running on WebOS.
