Biggest missing feature for parents
Posted: 02 Nov 2017, 11:18
Anyone with kids wanting to use MrMC (or any other Media Centre) has to deal with the same problem which is that all the children’s movies, series and songs will mix with the other content.
And like most parents I have no time to mark all the content that arrives onto my NAS from multiple sources and media...
I know there is the profiles feature, but having to sign out and back in several times a day is not practical. Especially for young kids and people like my wife who want things as easy as possible or will resist using it..
**Because of this parents of younger kids these (and other) difficulties:**
* parents cannot have their kids in charge of the remote because they will have access to content not safe for their age group.
*Your own neatly managed collections get littered with kids stuff which sucks monkey b@lls.
*Some filtering functions become useless
*Ranking lists like “Party Mode” or “Top 100” are unusable due to the kids music & videos..
— This is a big reason to pay for Netflix, which made the wise decision to include a Kids Mode.
**Request:**
Do you guys have plans to implement something to support the same common use-case?
I’ve been waiting for such a Netflix-like solution feature for almost 7 years (when I became a father for he first time), so it would really be wonderful to see this getting some attention.
