stills/screenshots video's/library

Postby pbecks1963 » Tue Oct 09, 2012 12:50 am

Hello y'all,

I am think off setting up an amahi server for streaming video's to my xbox. I am already doing this via my windows pc but want to try it with Amahi.

Now, what i am looking for is a way to have a nice menu on my xbox with screenshots/stills of all videos/tv-series that i have on my harddisks. So i want to be able to add a picture in the menu for every vid...

Is that possible? How?

(not looking for dvd-cover's! Just a picture that i choose/grabbed myself from the movie/vid..)

Recommend you try the Amahi DLNA app.

http://www.amahi.org/apps/dlna

It streams music, video, and pictures to any media capable device. I can access my media via Android phone, Tablet, BluRay player, and PCs.

Possible or that could be an old video. I do not have an xBox to validate. There are a few different media servers in Amahi that might work. Go to the apps section on the Amahi web site and check them out.
