Contents: 1 Description 2 Dependencies 3 Installation 4 Firewall Description: UPnP/DLNA Plugin for Video Disk Recorder This Plugins extends the VDR with the possibility to act as an UPnP/DLNA Media Server (DMS). It will serve VDR's contents in the network to any UPnP-AV and DLNA capable devices. The plugin requires a valid network connection with a IPv4 address. It will find its settings automatically by default. In this case, the first network device in the network device list with a valid IPv4 address and port 49152 will be used for connections. You can change this behavior either by setting the command line options or by editing the setup via the VDRs setup page. Dependencies: This plugin is tested with and requires the following libraries to work: libupnp-1.6.6 The UPnP SDK libsqlite-3.6 SQLite 3 Database libtntnet-2.0 TNTnet library web server libtntdb-1.1.1 TNTdb library database connector boost::spirit Grammar parser boost::function Boost function library boost::bind Boost bind library The boost libraries are usually available in a packed version, so that only a single installation is required.
