Bring out the server app for the Xbox One X. That would be sweet.

Lack of Auto framerate and HD audio bitstream are the main reasons why I don’t use it as a “daily driver”.
Forced subtitles support would be nice as well.

  3. Better direct play media support
  4. More subtitle options
  5. Better responsivness of interface and UI performance polishing
  6. Theme music

@ilovric Theme music is already available in the app. You can enable it in the app settings, under Main → Play Theme Music. Could you clarify what you mean by more subtitle options? Everything else is on our roadmap :slight_smile:

36

@Moussa Oh I see, I disabled it in the beginning as volume was too loud and somehow missed it when testing all other options. What I was having in mind is to control volume of background theme music, that would be great. As for subtitle options I was thinking about options for color and style, nothing more. Happy to hear all other features are not overlooked and that they are on roadmap. :slight_smile: Looking forward to test and see all the improvements on this platform as Xbox one (s variant mostly) has lots of potential for media center hub.

Thanks!

Are we ever going to get proper FFD and RWD functionality back?

The skipping is fine but on my media/Logitech remote I used to be able to use either option and fast forwarding is sorely missed
