Summary | 0010254: DLNA: We should consider introducing DLNA profiles | ||||
Description | As more and more devices support DLNA and MIME Types are rather not standardized and/or not completely followed by manufacturers to add support for some popular but not standardized formats like FLAC, MKV, WAV, AVI I noticed that some DLNA Servers include common profiles that allow servers to correctly serve Mime Types for problematic devices. Structure should be rather simple INI file Structure containing 5 Sections: ----- [DLNA_Profile] Version=0.0.0.1 ReleaseDate= Title=Oppo BDP-93 UserAgent=OPPO PLAYER [UPNP_AUDIO] mp3=audio/mpeg flac=audio/x-flac ... [UPNP_VIDEO] mkv=video/x-matroska asx=video/x-ms-asf ... [UPNP_PLAYLIST] pls=audio/x-scpls m3u=audio/mpegurl asx=video/x-ms-asf ... [UPNP_TEXT] srt=text/srt sub=text/sub ... ------ We can also do that in XML structure There should be several changes to UI by adding ability to Force Profile on Allowed Device | ||||

|
NOTE: that would also allow users/manufacturers to test profiles and/or create newone along with publishing it on Addons site as MMIP |
|
Note that I hardcoded several DLNA profiles directly in UPnP.dll (e.g. for xBox, PS3, WMP, Samsung TV, ...), but I believe that it can remain as hardcoded and done automatically (based on user-agent header) without a user ineraction, because it is too technical for users anyway. Resolving for now... |
|
Change to suspended, for now hardcoded are enough, but we should reconsider if we want to approach to manufacturers/MMW OEMs and developers of third party clients to create/test their own profiles (eg. Like Device profiles in Mambo releases). |
|
Reminder sent to: jiri, rusty Sent reminder for later triage. |
|
Note: have saw some rumors that some custom UPnP clients wil be released for LG Smart TVs that will have own profiles as they will playback non natively supported formats. |
