Hi all,
Just thought I would share my experiences with DLNA servers and write up a bit of a guide to get one working.
A DLNA server allows you to stream media from a computer to any DLNA enabled device such as a PS3, PVR device, modern TV etc. For me it was a lot easier than moving my content via a USB device.
I have a Samsung BD-e8500 PVR.
I have a machine that does everything, it's my router, WirelessAP(s), NAS, etc. and I've set up a DLNA server on it, but it's not being seen by any DLNA compliant devices (DLNA apps on Android Tablet or a WDTV Live).
I just bought a TV with DLNA support.
I already have a machine dedicated to file server (with 8 disks) and I would love to use this machine as DLNA server if possible.
Are there any usable Linux implementations of DLNA?
So I was reading an article on the verge about Xbox updates and apparently it supports DLNA now? With this functionality is my TV basically airplay compatible? What apps do you guys use for DLNA content pushing? Can I stream YouTube to the TV? I've never been a fan of MHL or HDMI, mini HDMI, etc or whatev

Argh, I’ve been watching all my videos over my network for years, now what do I do?
Seems like a backwards move, as even my new TV can now play video off my dlna server.
Is there a way to stream the live output of the soundcard from our 12.04.1 LTS amd64 desktop to a DLNA-compliant external device in our network?
Using the minidlna application, you can turn any Linux machine into a DLNA server in a matter of minutes.
I've just attempted to turn my PC into a DLNA server for the first time. My phone can see my PC in the list of "Nearby devices," but it takes an absolute age (about 3 minutes) to load my songs (about 4,700) and when I try to play a song, it just sends me to the playlist screen rather than actually playing it.
Is it likely to be the phone or the PC that's being really slow here?
