1) with AirPlay (AirTunes as far as we are concerned), which is a
straightforward "stream-to" RTSP based UDP, it will be much easier then
with UPnP. No renderer/controler/server separation, just a transmitter
and receiver. The only bummer is that streams to any certified AirPlay
devices have to be Apple Loseless encoded. Opensource implementations
naturally accept most other formats
2) OIK, I'll try Foobar more
3) Display a message "Please wait, preparing to save configuration
file...". I am not actually sure why is this done at all. I dont
remember seeing any software generating default configuration files in
this way.... and I've see a lot of software :) Most apps distribute
default configuration files with application package. I see the need to
find out UDDIs, but if you implement property matching from #4, that
will be unnececery in 99.99% of the cases.
4) Great! Thanks! Will make life much easier
5) I'm mostly interested in DSD streaming... for instance, a very
popular Oppo 95/105 accepts both stereo and multi-channel DSD streams
over UPnP. This currently works well with FooBar and jRiver. LMS has
built-in DSD support for about a year now. Is there a chance lms2upnp
might strream DSD one day? 

Thanks!
