Here is some random information about DLNA open source projects:
- 5DLNA and UPnP libraries and middleware
UPnP media servers
Here is a list of UPnP media servers for Windows, Linux, MAC and Python:(some links obtained from http://ps3mods.blogspot.com/2007/05/upnp-media-servers-for-windows-mac.html)
Unique DLNA/UPnP video player Subtitles support (. NEW. you can also open local SRT files) Resumes and bookmarks synchronized between your devices Best experience with Emby server (DLNA profiles included). More features are being prepared. Currently fully supports only video playback, support for background audio and image galleries are planned. NOTICE. More. I don't have any other DLNA 'certified' hardware but I do have a fast wireless network and a Mac. SURELY there's a nice bit of software available to turn my mac into a DLNA client!?! Googling turns up lots and lots of DLNA server solutions, mainly hinged around streaming from macs to PS3s and Xboxes but no clients.
- Ability to make your Chromecast an UPnP/DLNA renderer for broad compatibility with UPnP/DLNA control software Ability to fix some issues in UPnP/DLNA Media Servers by creating proxies It can run on any machine of your local network where Java 7 or higher is available (Java 8+ recommended).
- It's dead easy to set up, there are beautiful, usable clients for all of the desktop and mobile OSes and game consoles, it speaks standard DLNA, and you can share your server's library with other Plex users (e.g. Family members). Plex itself is free; you get some advantages by purchasing a subscription and subsidizing development.
