			== Limitations ==
			Dumping this from a forum thread I made that lists some of the current limitations to library sharing with UPnP. I'll eventually work this into the actual page:

			*You can do basic playlists, but smart playlists have to be done on the "host".
			*The info window won't show up on UPnP entries, but you can see the metadata if you are using a skin view that shows it. So if a skin view only shows summary, title, etc, but not actors, then you don't really have access to a list of actors. You can still view by actor via the actor video node, but it's not quite as slick.
			*Watched/resume marks don't always show up right away on the client.
			*Unless I'm mistaken, external .srt subs are not sent over UPnP. Embedded subs are, but not external ones.

Created page with "Hi Ned. It would be great to have a table with current state of upnp and features, and maybe also in comparison to other library sharing methods like nfs/smb shares. Like subtit..."

New page

Hi Ned.

It would be great to have a table with current state of upnp and features, and maybe also in comparison to other library sharing methods like nfs/smb shares.
Like subtitles support, audio/video formats, transcoding, access control and etc.
Sorry to offer the idea and not realizing it myself.
