What DLNA-Server for the Pi? (Musik only)

There's mpd which quite a few people use on the pi.

Did it really freeze or just not give any indication of "doing something"?

I've only 290 GB of TV programmes and that takes quite a while to do a library update with several long pauses when the progress bar stops. It also depends on how responsive the site(s) where the music information is gathered from are.

mpd is not was I want. mpd is for playing music local.

Depends how you use it, mpd can run on your local machine using a network connection to read the music files. The result is essentially the same as using a remote server.

I do agree however that it isn't what you were asking for, I was mis-remembering how I used mpd a while ago.

I've used Mediatomb, but not on a pi. but on a mac-mini ppc, which has 512 Mb Runs very well.

sudo apt-get install mediatomb

Ushare has failed to annoy me for several years now, it's about as minimal as it gets though, it doesn't even use inotify so you have to refresh to add new material.

Do you mean DLNA client? I assume you already have a DLNA server running on a NAS some place.

Hi Toby,

no, I want to run my Pi as my music server. I don't have any NAS.

I run MPD/Icecast on a Ubuntu box with a Raspberry Pi as a client, but there's no reason you couldn't do it the other way around.

I'm searchig for a lightweight server to run on my RasPi. The RasPi itself is not suitable for me as a client. I own a Linn Majik DSM

In my old linux server (P4/2.66Mhz) I run minidlna (from ubuntu repository) as dlna server for my TV (VmSize=70Mb)
