MediaProvider *v0.1.01* has been released. This is a *pre-alpha release* intended for testing and development purposes.
MediaProvider [1] is a platform to provide media in your network. It should be irrelevant on which device they should be played back or where the data is stored. Test results can be published on the end-user community [2]. More detailed information how to get all relevant details will be published on the web site. The source code for all modules being used are on github [3]. Please visit our development web site [4] for more information. *Vision* As the first step a MediaServer compliant to the UPnP standard is available for duty. It should be accessible by any DLNA compatible device. But this Python- based software should not only be a UPnP / DLNA server. A HTML5 interface intended for SmartTVs and mobile devices should bring a MediaCenter interface where it belongs to: To the TV screen. *Indiegogo NAS campaign* To bring the project one step closer to this goal we need your help. An Indiegogo [5] campaign should provide this young project the funds to buy a Synology DiskStation DS414slim and four hard drives. This development unit is intended to be placed in a cellar or corridor to stream not only all the media to the living room but the MediaCenter interface as well.
