My most used app

I absolutely love this app. I have a NAS that contains thousands of video files in varying qualities that are all avaliable on the go from my mac, iPad, or iPhone. I love the ability to transcode to whatever bitrate i need to based on my connection speed. The servetome app is running on my desktop with a quad core i7 930 processor and can transcode even my 1080p videos (however it really needs to be on the same network as remotely accessing it is simply too slow for my upload speeds in my apartment). However i still can access the videos in a lower transcoded quality over 3G, which is great when i connect it to my pico projector on the go.

The one problem I experience as of late is that 720p MKV files are frequently causing a loop of sorts where 30 seconds will play and then the video will start over with a really nasty overlay. The only way around this Ive found is to force the bitrate on the recieving device down to about 320 kbps. Im not sure why only the latest iteration of the server software casuses this, but all the benefits this app provides still affords it a full 5 star rating from me.
