It works with Smart TVs (Samsung, LG, Sony via DLNA/UPnP), Chromecast devices, BubbleUPnP, and GMediaRender. No need to copy files to a USB drive or set up a media server. Just select your file, pick your device, and play. Supports auto-discovery, transcoding for incompatible formats, external and embedded subtitles, seek support, and both GUI and CLI modes.
