I have installed OMV on a Raspberry Pi and I can see the files on it using My Files on my phone. However, when I click on a file to view/play it (mp4) My Files wants to first download the file to my phone.

 

Is there a way to view/play the file without first downloading it?




 I'm supposed to respect my elders, but it's getting harder and harder for me to find one now.

Have you tried VLC? It supports local network connections, so if it can see you OMV, I assume it would be able to stream from it.
