Can I suggest that if anybody does look at the UPNP/DLNA server that the
configuration is pulled out as either a cfg file or some other user
manageable settings ? Despite DLNA being a "standard" there are a whole
bunch of tricks and variations required to get servers working with
devices. As an example, here are the profile variations needed in Serviio.

Alternative approach is to make the integration of third party servers
easy. I personally use Serviio and Mythlink for a pretty usable system.
Only downside is Serviio keeps its own database, and needs a cron job to
keep it up to date.

   If its going to be a single non-user configurable version, make it for
the Sony Internet TVs coz thats what I have [ Only joking ]
