aesop, a simple media player.

A huge work in progress, but basically a very tiny competitor to Kodi. I've had

issues with Kodi on more than capable hardware for years, so I've given up and

done it myself.

Current features

================

 - Web based, no need to struggle with a keyboard or an IR remote.

 - FAST. Can load up hundreds of items in a second or two, not minutes like

   other media players.

 - Massive concurrency. On my terrible internet connection, I can scan

   about 2500 items a minute as opposed to the 50-100 I can do with Kodi. Keep

   in mind there's a lot of metadata Kodi colllects that aesop does not, so

   this isn't too surprising, but Kodi doesn't have any concurrency so it's

   still a win.

 - Tiny codebase, for those that like simplicity/want to hack it to do what

   they want.

Planned features

================

 - UPnP server that also doesn't suck (I have the basis for this going now)

 - Deluge/RSS integration

 - NFS/FTP/CIFS support

 - A lot of reworking the UI (I'm not a frontend person, I'm sorry)
