Could be my favorite

Works like a charm.
Only thing i would like to see is the possibility to add a WebDAV server.

As good as it gets

I use 8player as controller, a remote between my NAS and AV receiver.

With DLNA a lot of functionality depends on the server and the player as well which can get problematic for controllers like 8player, but 8player keeps working well with both. I have tried a lot of DLNA controllers and the ones that were good disappeared. 8player is good and still gets updated once in a while. What I like most about it compared to others is that I can have 8player open on my iPad side by side with the app of my player. It’s also nice that it has an AppleTV app, although I don’t use that much.

It has not the most beautiful interface but it serves it’s purpose. Navigation through content is responsive but could be a bit better designed. I recently found the options to change icons and background which makes it a bit less ugly.

I once contacted support for what I thought was a bug (which was a bug in the Twonky server after all), their response was quick and kind.

For now I’ll stick with this app. But I hope it will get a decent update on the interface.

I use the pro version now and am very happy with it. Money well spend.
