[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 7987"] I did and while it would work fine, the license isn't compatible with the GPL so we can't use it as part of the official MediaPortal distribution. I've also looked at the MS uPnP stack in WinXP, but got frustrated with it and gave up (someone else may have better luck). I agree that UPnP is really gaining momentum for networked media devices. Seems that there are a few open source .NET based UPnP projects already underway that we will be able to roll into MP - Andrea above being one of them. It's probably worth waiting a little while and seeing if any general solutions mature before we try implementing a specific one in MP. Speaking of reinventing the wheel, I started writing my own UPnP stack for a laugh. I've implemented (hacked) SSDP and some parts of the MediaServer (mainly just "browse" in the ContentDirectory). This weekend I'll probably do the ConnectionManager. If I finish it (and it works!) before any of the general solutions are available, the I might put it into a MP plugin as a proof of concept.
