Have Your Say: What is the the #1 feature you want for the next version of Mezzmo?

[Paul]

Hi Mezzmo community,

We are now discussing what features we should next add into Mezzmo. We have a list of possible features, but we really need to know from you.

What features or improvements do you want to see in the next version of Mezzmo? What is the #1 feature that is missing from Mezzmo today? If you are not a Mezzmo user, what is stopping you from using Mezzmo?

Let us know your thoughts. Don't be shy in telling us the good, the bad & the ugly . It will make sure that we create Mezzmo as you want it to be.

Many thanks from the Mezzmo development team!

(BTW: We also just asked the same question on our Facebook page - https://www.facebook.com/Mezzmo.DLNA.Server)

I would like to see Mezzmo for Network Attached Storage (NAS), Western Digital, Synology, QNAP, Netgear. Currently NAS users are compelled to use PLEX.

Many thanks for your feedback! We are still collecting users' suggestions both here and on our Facebook page. Your ideas will help us decide our priorities for new features & platforms.

I'd like to have a bit more power in smart playlists, in particular the ability to have the ability to mix and match ANY and ALL statements. For example I'd like to be able to set a rule like "(Condition A AND Condition B) OR (condition C AND Condition D)" - or alternatively "(Condition A OR Condition B) AND (condition C OR Condition D)"

Honestly your software is so good that there aren't any major requirements missing. It took me quite a while to come up with a list of enhancements to make great software even better.

Here's a ranked order wish list:

1. NVIDIA support for transcoding. IQS limits Mezzmo to Intel processors for hardware based transcoding. AMD is back in the CPU game.
2. Enable to Kodi Add-on to pull a list of videos when you click on a specific actor / actress in the info tab. Right now it doesn't return anything.
3. Live stream capture scheduler. The ability to capture a live stream on a scheduled basis, into a predefined format and save to a predefined location.
4. W3C web server logging. I know we can use a reverse proxy and similar but Mezzmo logging in a standard web format would be beneficial.
5. Playlist export function into standard playlist formats. This would be for playlist backups, sharing with hardware based media players (i.e. car audio, phones etc..)
6. Headless version of Mezzmo where we can remotely administer Mezmo without being on the console server.

I think having greater control over URL video times would be great. For example, you can get a starting point on YouTube videos by right clicking and selecting [Copy video URL at current time]. The feature I would like to see is being able to end the video at a specific playing time. This would enable us to end the video without all the annoying gibberish at the end.

A great example of this would be ALL Peter Hollens' videos. The video here, O come, O come, Emmanuel, is 6:38 but the song is only 4:28. That example, chosen at random, has over two minutes of him talking. Wouldn't it be nice to eliminate it?

#1 - This
#2 - nVidia support for transcoding.
#3 - The ability to export my library information as an Excel spreadsheet or html file

1. Of course, here is my request to add this feature

2. I would like ability an option to lock artists photo change and album covers. If we accidentally changed something in the settings, we lose our settings (Covers and Artist photos) when we refresh the library. Such a lock would be a safeguard against the accidental loss of our arduous configuration.

There is currently a feature to lock the properties of a file in Mezzmo so that Maintenance will not overwrite the current metadata, in the properties of a file there is a lock icon which you can click to enable this.

„There is currently a feature to lock the properties of a file in Mezzmo so that Maintenance will not overwrite the current metadata, in the properties of a file there is a lock icon which you can click to enable this.”

Yes, there is an option, but it only blocks the ability to change the file's properties.

I was thinking about blocking the Artist's photo change on the active play list. Something like at the screen.
