I would if it had most of the features that Plex does.

It does.

It doesn't work on Samsung TVs, I tried

Can you browse web on your tv? That would work.

I was curious and tried that on my Samsung TV from 2016, it loads a grey background and does nothing

Maybe, I put it into dev mode to install the app, but it seems that it's not functional in the current version

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Oh, I meant browse to the webpage like you would on a computer. Is there not a browser available? I've only got dumb tvs, so sorry I can't be of more help.

Ok.

So it has a dedicated music app?
It has music filtering?
Good 4k/x265 performance?
Has a third party (or built in) utility that shows me streaming usage?
Allows me to limit remote users to streaming from a single IP address at a time?
Let’s me watch something together with another remote user?
Has an app for most any device (like Plex or Emby) that does NOT require sideloading?
Has built in native DVR steaming/recording support?
