[DONE] Alternative UPnP Server

[SlowMo]

I was wondering how difficult it would be to replace Fuppes with another UPnP server such as MiniDLNA, considering how Fuppes development appears to have stopped.

I''m all for a different UPNP server, it's about time. Fuppes is rubbish.

And change mtdaapd for forked-daapd

What's the point in NAS4Free and it's ongoing development if it's still going to be packaged with obsolete service software?

My darling is "uShare", until now it worked out of the box at all Linux and FreeBSD machines where I have installed it, absolut without any problems.

The good thing with Fuppes are the different profiles you can setup and that it is still under development.
Yesterday I had to learn the hard way, that Fuppes needs for the database a different location as for the files... putting it into /mnt/disk/musik/ did not bring it to work, moving the database location to /mnt/disk/ was working successful...

So this could be a feature for the future, to warn the user about this behavior.

Can we get MiniDLNA to replace Fuppes, since Fuppes is stalled and not actively being worked on.

Fuppes does work here but ... i would also be happy if there will be another alternative available. Even in the meanwhile a extra service as test package in nas4free so you are able to evaluate fuppes against something else.

Having a UPnP service on a nas device is at this moment i think a must have
