Serviio

I love Serviio! I've been looking for a way to play movies on my TV from my computer since early last month. Finally I found something. It's easy to use and plays all of the extensions. Thank you for a great application/server.

I think it would be great if I had a way to keep my son from accidentally playing R rated stuff though. Maybe ask for a PIN or something before something a certain rated film would play.

That should be a client side feature rather than serviio, as serviio just offers the files to be played and the client then determins how that file is played.

Something like that has been requested already: https://bitbucket.org/xnejp03/serviio/i ... r-profiles
I gather you'd select a profile in the console and you'd get a subset of the files.

as for me for parental control I prefer to use ActyMac DutyWatch ( www.actymac.com ) ...
