It runs the same code as SBS on the desktop. However, it does have some
flags set on startup which limits its functionality. For example, it
does not support transcoding, so will only serve files that can be
played back natively by that player. It also has no web interface as
that would create too much of a resources spike and could interrupt
normal playback on Touch. Support for the SliMP3 and SB1 has also been
disabled because the protocol they used was much more CPU intensive. Oh,
and no server plugins by default. That's all I think.
