My experience

I'm using Serviio with a Samsung C6000 TV. I've tried mediatomb and minidlna so far, but they were not really being actively developed anymore. And of course I had some compatibility issues with the DLNA server and my TV. So I found Serviio, and so far, I'm liking it. The support for Series titles is really handy and eases navigation on the Samsung a lot.

Only question I have: please open-source it! Why do we need to decompile JARs to see ugly, uncommented code if we could have the real deal It would also be easier to contribute. I see a lot of feature requests, and some users might wanna take a shot at implementing it (myself included).

erm the fact its all in jars has nothing to do with ' open source ' the jars are just archives nothing more winrar opens them just like any other archive and then ur free to edit.

Yep, but the jars contain compiled java code instead of the sources..

yep and that for a reason to stop people stealing the code and even if they did decompile it they would be in breach of the GPL and open to prosicution.

Just to clarify: Serviio is not under GPL, it has it's own EULA (which I'm sure you all read when you installed the SW ) under which you CAN decompile Serviio for your own use (and the other libraries mostly too, check their licences). If you come up with some great code and want to share, feel free to send it to me and I'll see if it can be incorporated into the release.
