I use a RaspberryPi that runs Raspbian and mount my file server&#x27;s UPnP media directory using djmount.  Then start videos on my TV using the OMX Remote app from Android devices (OMX Remote plays videos using the omxplayer app on the RPi). I had to increase the gpu memory on the RaspberryPI so that all my videos would play and once in a while kill omxplayer processes but other then that it works fine.  And you go this route, you could still install Kodi if you need the plugins.
