uPnP Media Server with llink.
January 16th, 2010 | by RoarinPenguin |Let’s start this new year by referencing an excellent system I happened to find on the Internet to perform uPnP server functionality on my Linux system.
The name of the thing is LLink and although I haven’t exploited at full yet, it looks VERY promising.
Some features:
- Parses various video containers: vob, avi, ts, mkv, tp, mov, m2ts, evo.
- Streams any file type the NMT player can handle: mp3, flac, jpeg, png etc.
- Can play straight from rar files: no more need to unrar your media. (Comes with special unrar-3.7.8-seek.)
- SSDP / UPnP discovery support (although minimal).
- Skin support: make your own html templates or choose from pre-built.
- Simple iMDb querying to look up media information for Jukebox skins.
- Both HD and SD skins available.
- Light, tiny and clean code for Unix, OsX and Windows.
- Paginating: support to send listings in pages, with tags for Next/Prev.
- PlayAll cgi tag, and PlayAllFrom.
- External subtitles: subtitle files can be consolidated in one directory.
- libdvdnav support (and libdvdcss): provides basic playback of DVD .iso and .img files and from DVD drives.
- UDF 2.50 BD5-ISO support: provides basic playback of Bluray and HD-DVD.
