There's no polling in UPnP, we receive multicast packets from all devices on the network.

It just defaults everything to unknown. I suppose a fully-compiant device that advertises itself as a media renderer will let WMC pull these details, but we don't do that and it doesn't seem to really matter anyway. -- andyg ------------------------------------------------------------------------ andyg's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3292 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=27103 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/beta
