I'm not very familiar with the Roku API, but it would be great if you could add a display for various media information currently playing on the Roku (perhaps one for video apps and one for music apps). Something similar to what's included in some of the Blu-Ray players would be useful, especially if I'm playing music and the display is either off or in another room.

We have raised this to Roku many times over the years.

According to this thread, there may be hope on the horizon "within 3 months":

Certainly, were Roku to add additional metadata, we would be all over it.

Thank you.

Any news from Roku? If not, maybe reach out to Roku management?
