GMediaRender
============

Introduction
------------

GMediaRender is a UPnP(tm) media renderer for POSIX(r)-compliant
systems, such as Linux(r) or UNIX(r). It implements the server
component that provides UPnP controllers a means to render media
content (audio, video and images) from a UPnP media server.

Requirements
------------

The following programs are required to build GMediaRender:

* GNU C Compiler (gcc), 2.95 or later.

The following libraries are required to build and run GMediaRender:

* Portable SDK for UPnP Devices (libupnp), 1.6.0 or later, including
the latest 1.8.x versions (BSD license).
http://pupnp.sourceforge.net/

* GStreamer 1.x (LGPL).
https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/

Note that GMediaRender completely relies on GStreamer for rendering
content, so if your GStreamer environment does not support a given
media format, GMediaRender won't either.

You can test this from the command line:

gst-launch-0.10 playbin uri=file:///path/to/file
