dlna-dmr

An extensible DLNA DMR (Digital Media Renderer) implementation.

🤔 Cli or Lib?

The dlna-dmr cli itself is a dummy DMR that only logs the received commands, without actually doing anything with them. It is perfect for debugging purposes, but to build a real DMR, refer to the library documentation.

✅ TODO

• Actual XML parsing
• Config file
• "Heartbeat" - send periodic alive messages to the network
• Removing the 'static requirement
• Command line arguments parsing
• Testing HTTP server via TestRequest
