So you can share MythTV media files to any UPnP client (a so called "UPnP AV MediaServer ControlPoint" device) on your local-network, as long as the UPnP client is not behind a firewall or you have opened the ports for UPnP in your firewall (1900 UDP and 6543 TCP).

A DMP (Digital Media Player) typically only implements a UPnP AV MediaServer ControlPoint, to be able to play files from UPnP AV MediaServers.įor a more detailed explanation see Developers Notes on UPnP. There are typically three types of UPnP AV (Audio/Video) device control protocols (also called profiles) "UPnP AV MediaServer" whose sole purpose is to share content, "UPnP AV MediaRenderer" which renders content and exposes an interface to control the playback, and a "UPnP AV MediaServer ControlPoint" which can detect/find "UPnP AV MediaServers" and browse them to read media from them. The UPnP architecture supports zero-configuration, which implies no need for manual configuration on the user's end. The goals of UPnP are to allow UPnP devices on a network to detect each other and connect seamlessly, and to simplify the implementation of networks in the home (data sharing, communications, and entertainment) and corporate environments. Universal Plug and Play is a set of computer network protocols from the UPnP Forum. ![]()
