I have Kodi installed now, I will probably test OSMC later today, are there any other programs similar to them that I could test?
What I am mostly interested in:
- fullscreen mode (dark mode / theme preferably, even if I would have to make it manually somehow)
- option to navigate my drive or external drive
- xbox controller support
- subtitles support
What I want to accomplish is quite simple, every now and then I want to play a movie from my pc on my tv (connected via hdmi) and I don’t want to use mouse or keyboard while watching it to pause or turn the volume up a notch.
Kodi is kinda okay for all that but it feels a little wonky and pretty often makes a mess with my files, creating duplicates or ghost files on lists…
Thanks for any help!
I am not that super interested in this because the hdmi connection stays anyway for playing some games…
I was reading about jellyfin and it would be great for me like 8 years ago, when I was still in my data hoarding phase.
What I am looking for now is more like Player + Library + Xbox controller as input on top of that. Oh… and subtitles support would be great.
