Serviio ps45/21/2023 ![]() but I found its browse menus limiting and no better than any other media server. I was initially looking for a NAS-installable server and was already fond of MC but started looking at serviio becuase it's available on a NAS. From my experience of serviio and its developers during its early stages, I think you will get better response from MC staff and user community, and also you get weekly releases of MC with bug fixes and new features, whereas with serviio the updates are not very regular. Other than that, I don't know much about servoio, but if you describe to us what you'd like to do and what you expect from a DLNA server then we might be able to point you to specific things that MC does instead of trying to second-guess what serviio does and why one might be better than the other!ħ. It will also perform 5 better then serviio I guess, as it has a TV interface and remote apps and means you don't have to use a primitive interface that might be built into a TV, or a generic remote DLNA app. Last time I looked at serviio, it had limited and pre-defined browse structures and limited tagging management, whereas MC is completely flexible and customisable in that regard. JriverMC will certainly do 3, 4, 5 and 6, and it does them extremely well. Points 1 and 2 are subjective and I don't know what hardware you've got. There may be other things, but those are the major things off the top of my head! whether it has its own browsing interface, e.g. whether it incorporates metadata tagging/scraping tools if you need it to do thatĥ. whether it will allow you to categorise your media as you wish and specify/customise your browse menusĤ. whether it will transcode files as necessary depending on your particular rendering devicesģ. whether it will run on the hardware you want it to run onĢ. ![]() If you are only looking for a DLNA server then the things I guess which will define whether one is any better than another for your own purposes are:ġ. ![]() As mentioned above, JRiver MC is a complete "media management and play" tool, Serviio is only a DLNA server which is a small part of what MC does.
