uShare / GeexBox

http://ushare.geexbox.org

uShare is a UPnP (TM) A/V & DLNA Media Server. It implements the server component that provides UPnP media devices with information on available multimedia files. uShare uses the built-in http server of libupnp to stream the files to clients.

GeeXboX uShare is able to provide access to both images, videos, music or playlists files (see below for a complete file format support list). It does not act as an UPnP Media Adaptor and thus, can't transcode streams to fit the client requirements.

uShare is written in C for the GeeXboX project. It is designed to provide access to multimedia contents to GeeXboX but can of course be used by any other UPnP client device. It should compile and run on any modern POSIX compatible system such as Linux.

uShare is free software - it is licensed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL).

When compiling is successful, start uShare:

ushare -n ushare -p 49153 -c /var/Daten -x -i eth4

(The 2nd 'ushare' is the name of the server displayed on the device; -x means: Xbox360-Profile; eth4 is my eth0)

When all is working, the Server is called with:
