[QUOTE="jaiume, post: 89179, member: 21222"] Just had a more interesting idea with uPNP, and I may be a bit green wrt RTSP, anyway... From what I understand, RTSP will allow a client to (play a) stream from a server, and even control how that stream is played (Pause, rewind, fast-forward etc). However choosing the stream is not within the scope of its capabilities. Imagine if the TVServer had a 'virtual' uPNP directory structure, so instead of just serving up different meta-data on files that it had stored, it instead served up meta-data about the TV channels it had available to stream! Imagine being able to choose a channel just by browsing what looks like (to the uPNP device) a standard uPNP hierachy, or even being able to browse channels by genre, based on what the EPG says is currently on! That would open the TVServer up to every video capable uPNP device out there. Jaiume [/QUOTE]
