cygn/upnp2mpris

Description

This a wrapper for UPNP / DLNA renderers in your local network to appear as MPRIS2 compatible DBus objects. You can then use most mediacontroller desktop widgets as remotes. You can for example control a KODI instance runing on a RPi from your desktop (tested with Plasma and Gnome3 media controller extensions). It may also provide a control point for Rygel Playbin if you are using Gnome3 media share feature.

It uses dleyna-renderer dbus implementation so its interface is limited to which controls it makes available, which unfortunately doesn't cover all MPRIS2 DBus specification. ATM, only play/pause, next/previous and volume control are available.

There is nothing to configure. If your device is visible in the network, upnp2mpris will pick it up.

known issues

• dleyna-renderer-server sometimes hangs. You'll have to kill -9 it.
• Multiple renderer discovery doesn't work
