Does anyone know of a FOSS media streaming server that has a plugin for Kodi and apps for Android, Linux, and Windows?
Should work over the internet, not just LAN.

@Hyolobrika My solution is to just dump media files in /var/www/. Is there a reason people make it more complicated?

@swiley It would be nice to be able to play them on the big screen using apps like Kodi.

@Hyolobrika Your "big screen" doesn't have a web browser?

@swiley Fair enough. But web browsers are usually bloat though.

@Hyolobrika Any OS with "apps" probably won't let you remove them and any OS that would can probably just run mplayer.

@swiley It depends on the app. My Android phone lets me remove most apps.

@Hyolobrika I doubt it lets you remove webkit though. The "browser" app is just a wrapper for that.

@swiley It would also be nice to have lots of different views for the data. Say, a tag view as well as a hierarchical category view. Do you know any low-JS webapps that can do that?

@Hyolobrika You could probably write an awk one-liner to generate an html index for that easily enough.
