Why?
- amitport 5y agoEvery feature seems simple by itself, but considering the overall scope and the maintenance effort, you will need dozends of people working full time on this. (I worked at such a very for profit media tech company)
- stjohnswarts 5y agoBecause people want a massive piece of software for free and "expect it". I mean we would all love to have what you typed out there but it would be a massive effort and not likely to happen anytime soon. Jellyfin and Calibre do a lot of what you have there but probably not even the majority of it and certainly not flawlessly
- patrickk 5y agoThe scope gets bloated and the app unfocused. Most people wouldn’t read eBooks or comics from a big screen interface for example, but use a dedicated app for that. Keeping a cinema app primarily focused on video means it is leaner and meaner for the majority use case.
