Hi

Firstly thanks for the server, it is fantastic and really just work.

My feature request comprise multiple elements which hopefully come together and provide a really functional addtion on the PRO version - I would be keen to pay. This really works hand in hand with 'serviidroid' on the phone but would work just as well with a web based managemenet console;

1. This is all premised on serviio being able to stream to multiple devices concurrently
2. Group DLNA devices together so that the multi device stream can be initiated against the group
3. Display what is currently playing on all devices (including what is playing to a GROUP - identified/initiated in point 2)
4. Allow for the initiation of a stream (audio online or offline or for that matter any media) from the server (Initiation is ideally from 'serviidroid' or web based management interface)
5. Control volume on streamed content

Reason for doing from 'serviidroid' or management console is;
1. Disconnect mangement device and stream continues
2. Install DLNA speakers in the house and provide full remote control

Hope you like the idea.

There is already apps for this, but only properly works for music and pictures.
You can also control the volume of each renderer and the album artwork appears on your phone

If your on Android, i personaly use Sony Network Audio Remote, even though it says Sony devices, it works with all my DNLA devices
Theres actually a few similar apps like MediaHouse, yeah would be cool if serviidroid can do this
Theres also few similar apps for iOS
