[SurroundSound] Re: Can you stream DVD-A Audio Object Files with a DLNA server?

Has anyone tried playing around with FOO UP & PEE?

Foobar2000 playsback AOB files. The UPnP / DLNA media streaming
component is here:

http://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_upnp

I don't have an OPPO, but I am evaluating a DLNA streaming receiver.
I'll see if Foobar will stream to it using this component.

Tell me again, why do we need DLNA? What was so bad about Windows File
Sharing? Was anyone created a Foobar App for portable devices yet?
