DLNA UPnP Controller and Linux - pointer2null - 25-08-12

Any linux experts played around with this?


Basically have mediatomb running as a server, have a WDTV box that is a DLNA renderer. Windoze 7 has a "play to" function that sends the stream to the renderer. Sort of works ok, but I've been trying to find a linux (red hat/fedora) equivalent. There are loads of servers and clients by the bucket load, but no controllers (at least none for fedora that seem to work).

:rollin  Guess not then.
Mediatomb = cardborad box with your records in
DLNA Renderer = record player
UPnP Controller = On/Off switch on record player

I did at least understand the question... but prefer my Unix to be hidden behind OS X.
So I'm no help either. Big Grin

I use a Mac: iPad and iMac (but not the phone oddly) which marks me out as a bit of dunce in computer terms I guess?

Joined the list - see how it goes.
If there are no answers I'll have to look at the UPnP API and make my own  :'(

I used mediatomb but then tried and preffered twonky. It reencodes on the fly so i could watch mkv files on my dlna enabled TV.  Now using boxee and it sees my Linux box as a smb share or could also see it as upnp. No experience with wdtv though, or fedora. I like my Linux brown
