Coherence - DLNA/UPnP framework for the digital living

Project description

Coherence is a framework written in Python,
providing a variety of UPnP MediaServer and UPnP MediaRenderer implementations
for instant use. It includes an UPnP ControlPoint, which is accessible via
D-Bus too. Furthermore it enables your application to participate in
digital living networks, at the moment primarily the DLNA/UPnP universe.

Its objective and demand is to relieve your application from all the
membership/the UPnP related tasks as much as possible.

New in this 0.6.4 - Pont Mirabeau - release

* new MediaServer backends that allow access to
* Picasa Web Albums (http://picasa.google.com)
* a TestServer to easily serve and test interaction with
* one or more items and adjust 'upnp_class', 'mimetype' and 'DLNA-flags',
* items that are a GStreamer pipeline or an external program
* a new - used in parallel - D-Bus API with an 'org.DLNA' interface
with the goal to create a common API for all UPnP/DNLA frameworks
* support for the dlna-playcontainer URI
(http://netzflocken.de/2009/4/23/media-collection-playing-the-dlna-way)
* enchancements to the GStreamer MediaRenderer, supporting now
dlna-playcontainer and SetNextAVTransportURI, and jumping to previous
and next tracks
* support for video items served by Ampache (http://ampache.org)
* base classes for a ScheduledRecording service
* more 'compatibility' enhancements for different devices
* and - as every time - the usual bugfixes and enhancements

Kudos go to jmsizun, cjsmo, chewi, and lightyear.
