Serviio DLNA media server software hits public release

Serviio is a free Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) media server that has been developed and launched by one Petr Nejedly, a young wizz-kid developer in the Home Server and Home Media enthusiast community. Petr explains on his blog what the DLNA media server can do for you in your home: "Serviio is a free DLNA compatible media server. It allows you to stream your media files (music, video or images) to any DLNA-certified renderer device (e.g. a TV set, games console) on your home network. Serviio uses a priority-based metadata extraction so that you can choose what metadata should describe your media files (e.g. audio track name, DVD cover, TV series and episodes names, etc.). These include metadata embedded into the media files themselves, locally stored metadata files and metadata that can be obtained online. With this powerful tool you will be able to build your Serviio media library easily and effectively. Based on Java technology, Subsonic runs on most platforms, including Windows, Mac and Linux. Features include: - DLNA 1.5 compatible UPnP media server - Streams audio, video (SD & HD) and image files in their native format (no transcoding in the current version) - Automatically udpates the media library when you add/update/remove a media file or a metadata file - Wide array of library browsing options - Supports different renderer profiles - Extracts metadata of your media files the way you want it, incl. embedded metadata tags, - Local metadata files, online metadata sources - Supports video thumbnails - Available for Windows, Linux and Mac His software combines all walks of media- music, video and images, into one neat and tidy product - and with the first public release out now, media enthusiasts with a Home server should definitely check this out!
