Good idea. i will look into that.<br>

What type of remote are you using? I have not done much to support other <br>
than the basic keys. I don't know the best way to test this. There are <br>
"android remote" apps for a phone but they also seem to only have the <br>
basic keys.<br>

Another good suggestion - I will take a look.<br>

I have no plans to implement that. I don't know if those stats are <br>
available from exoplayer. Also above comment about remote applies.<br>

The android TV boxes seem to be optimized for hevc when using 4k. h264 <br>
with 4k does not work that well, especially in extreme conditions. At <br>
any rate, I am only supporting what exoplayer supports.<br>

The skew in the launcher icon was so that if you have both mythfrontend <br>
and leanfront installed you can see which is which. Perhaps there is a <br>
better way to indicate it, but I am no expert at creating graphics.<br>

The mythbackend api is short on methods related to videos. There are no <br>
api calls for scanning videos, deleting videos or setting video <br>
bookmarks. At some point I will look inot adding those to the backend, <br>
but until then, leanfront cannot support those things.<br>
