Upnp Server Best solution ??? - davicool - 2012-06-03
Hello,
After much research and attempts comparisons between Linux UPnP server (ushare = installation failed, MediaTomb = unstable and errors with accented characters, minidlna = I'm not sure that it meets my needs, etc..) I decide to ask for your help.
Look, I've installed and configured in a HTPC XBMCBuntu and I am very satisfied, except one thing: the UPnP server.
Indeed, it offers no means of customization (or so I have not found how) and do not support either the dissemination of playlists or folder trees.
I am looking for a DLNA / UPnP that is complementary.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Twonky? Costs money, not that much, and works well. Not sure about playlists, as I really don't use it that much. To be honest UPnP and DLNA are very limited in scope, which severely limits what they can do on the server side.

Try Universal Media Server

I use it to play on a variety of devices around the home. WDTV Live Hub, PS3.

I use serviio to share via upnp. Best I've used on Linux, although to be honest I don't use it that often.

Why not try mindlna before you decide it does not meet your requirements? I have used MediaTomb a few years ago with my PS3, but it seems to be discontinued now. I am now using minidlna to server my audio to my receiver. Works wonderfully. Don't need it for video though, I have NFS for that.
