UPnP / DLNA Media Server for MediaPortal 2 (1 Viewer)

@henso
Could you also apply this https://github.com/MediaPortal/MediaPortal-2/commit/07aca0828723f86ce21dc634601a732b58b32982 commit to the FFMPegLib branch?
https://github.com/MediaPortal/MediaPortal-2/tree/EXP_FFMpegLib

The reason is that I would like to get these branches into the Main version of MP2. So that there is no need to massively patch MP2 if you want to use the MediaServer or MP2Extended.

@morpheus_xx I'm trying to work out how playlists should be enumerated. Is there a wrapper function? Or is it IMediaLibrary::GetPlaylists to get them all (the container in MediaServer paradigm), IMediaLibrary::ExportPlaylist to get the media item IDs (the container's children) and do a per ID lookup (the children's children)?

To be honest: no idea . I've not touched this code part yet. This was one of the parts that Albert implemented at last.

@FreakyJ any ideas? If not I'll just wing it. Sorry did I say "wing it"? I of course mean "implement it using the carefully thought out pseudo code above".

I found this while working on the WifiRemote code:

List<PlaylistInformationData> playLists = ServerPlaylists.GetPlaylists().ToList();

I am using this on the client side, maybe it helps?! I hope I got you right. But the Playlists are also a mistery to me. They behave very different from all the other media items >_> IMO Playlists should be just an own MediaAspect...

We already did that (sort of) - https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/multiple-mias-solution-2.127378/page-2#post-1108490

@Lehmden
You mentioned so often that you would like to have new build of the DLNA MediaServer so I thought I would provide you with one^^
Use this installer: http://tinyurl.com/qgufrrc
(this is the MP2Ext installer because the DLNA Server and MP2Ext are using the same Transcoding Plugin + other changes in this branch^^ to many to recall them all )

The issues you encountered the last time were mainly due to the Transcoding Service and are hopefully fixed now. I would suggest to make a backup of you DB because this build adds new MediaAspects. So a Reimport is also required to fill the DB with the needed information.

Just in Time as I today have setup a fresh Windows on my HTPC. I now even did not have MP2 installed at all... Is it compatible with latest Weekly?

Edit.. Ok, no.. But then I need to know if it includes the latest SlimTV Client improvements, Morpheus did lately.. The schedules planing is indeed even more important to me than the DLNA server...
