Linux DLNA / UPNP Music player

baldy3105 · 10-23-2017, 12:27 PM

Hi all,

Can anyone suggest a music player with the ability to access a DLNA / UPNP server that isn't fundamentally broken?

I use Serviio as my server. All android devices I have work perfectly. Smart TV's, work perfectly. Working Linux clients? Nada.

Cheers

Pete

i see the same problem; however, i don't have a need for such a client.
either i mount the directories directly via nfs or sshfs, or i can use a web interface (does serviio have one?).
a small wrapper script around a lightweight browser => your first "cloud app"!

Kodi does work, but I found video lagging.

Coherence?

Seems to be dead. DLNA is history. I found better to setup samba shares.

i've been using libresonic.
somewhat bloated, but it does what i want and decent android apps are available.
