Hello,

Have you heard about the youtube dev API (http://www.youtube.com/dev) a REST and XML-RPC interface to retrieve information on video by tags ?
Do you think it will be a good idea to integrate this interface to your server to add dynamic browse functionality ?
 

sorry i have forgotten to notice that the youtube api allow to retrieve video by tags. It's the main functionnality that will be great for youe server/
 

Hi,

I think so. It is a good idea.

I will check the developer's API and support the tags in the next version as soon as possible.

Thanks for your good suggestions :-)
 

No thanks

Have you plan a linux and/or the source release of this cyber media gate version ?
I have some tribulations under Windows XP SP2 : when I try to launch it an error message say that the soft is not correctly installed and that maybe a reinstallation will solve the problem.
I have tried to reinstall it, but the same problem appear again.
 

The media server is based on UPnP/AV protocol stack.

However I will release the source code too as soon as possible :-)
 

Thanks for your great product.

I want a proxy support. It seems that the mediaserver doesn't work well in a corporate environment.
And I found three problems of the ContentDirectory service. They may not be critical issues for usual DMPs.
I checked the behavior by Intel DeviceSpy.

1. Browse( container_objID , BrowseMetadata ) returns no information about the container.
Browse( item_objID, BrowseMetadata ) may not return.

2. parentID property is defined only for container objects and item objects ( container@parentID, item@parentID).
parentID property is NOT defined for dc:title, upnp:class, res properties.
dc:title@parentID, upnp:class@parentID, res@parentID properties are not valid properties. They have a value "-1" in the Result argument of the response. It is not good.

3. Does 'res@size = "0"' mean that the size of the resource is unknown?
res@size is an optional property. If the value is unknown, you can hide the res@size property.
I'm not sure if the usual DMPs assume that each res property has a res@size proeprty.
 

Hi Yasuhiro,

>3. Does 'res@size = "0"' mean that the size of the resource is unknown?

I have fixed only the above but not to add the attribute when the size is less than zero.

I will check the other your problem from now.

Thanks for your report :-)
