1. ) Thanks for the lib!

But i gave some issues with it.
The example with the video playing works great. But it is not possible to pause/stop or seek in the video.
Neither from the lib nor the tv.

Is this a issues with my TV or the librarie ?

Inserted:

  var pInfo = et.SubElement(item, 'res');
  pInfo.set('protocolInfo','http-get:*:video/mp4:*');
  pInfo.text = metadata.url;

Right here: https://github.com/thibauts/node-upnp-mediarenderer-client/blob/master/index.js#L262

Tested with @jaruba for powder. My tv is a 2014 (or 13) LG without webos

subtitles: not yet tested

Additionnal note: dc:title cannot have special characters on my TV, or it won't read it. For example: "Les évadés" won't work because of the é. If I use Les evades as title, then it works.

Can you suggest an ssdp client to use with your module? Or mb some working examples of how you using your module?

Was trying inital test after getting Mediarender url using
https://github.com/stormboy/node-upnp-controlpoint

var MediaRendererClient = require('upnp-mediarenderer-client');

// Instanciate a client with a device description URL (discovered by SSDP)
var client = new MediaRendererClient('http://192.168.1.50:4873/urltomediarender.xml');

// Load a stream and play it immediately
client.load('http://url.to.some/stream.avi', { autoplay: true }, function(err, result) {
if(err) throw err;
console.log('playing ...');
});

Error : *****/dlna/node-upnp-mediarenderer-client/test.js:4
if(err) throw err;
^
Error: connect ECONNREFUSED

Getting a Connection Refused all the time any idea why?

I'm using node-upnp-mediarenderer-client in a player I'm currently working on (Powder Player, currently only a windows version).

As this is a feature that will be built in the player, some may choose to stream through DLNA after they've seen 30 minutes of a video. It is only normal that the TV should start playback at minute 30 where the user requested this action. Is it possible to add a startAt parameter to the options set for load()?

Hello,

This almost happen only with LG Tv any idea?

Thank you !

I am facing this problem in an attempt to implement the library. This error can only be identified when I changed the code inside the node_modules folder. Other than that, there was no error return. Has anyone seen something like that and knew how to fix it?

Hey,

yesterday everything was working okay, but today i get this error when i try to send a video to one of my Samsung TVs:
(Everything is working for my other two Samsung TVs, and i didn't change anything...)

The error is blocking furher execution.

I wonder what is going on there.
It's neither working from my Windows PC nor my Raspberry Pi.
Even though, I can send videos per upnp from Windows Media Player to this TV...

Can you give me a hint what is going on there in the code?

This is my code by the way:

var MediaRendererClient = require('upnp-mediarenderer-client');
var options = {
    autoplay: true, //play immediately
    contentType: 'video/x-ms-wmv',
    metadata: {
        title: 'Tuer klingelt',
        creator: 'Smarthome',
        type: 'video' //, // can be 'video', 'audio' or 'image'
    }
};

var client = new MediaRendererClient('http://192.168.178.26:7676/smp_11_');
client.load('http://*****/img/doorbell.wmv', options, function (err, result)
{
    console.log(result);
    if (err) throw err;
    console.log('VIDEO SUCCESSFULLY SENT TO TV!');
});

Hello!

If GETting URL passed via https://github.com/thibauts/node-upnp-mediarenderer-client/blob/master/index.js#L158 results in redirect (HTTP 301/302) dumb device (such as mine ez-cast) refuses to play it.
Wonder if you could add redirect resolution here? E.g. https://gist.github.com/simonw/399280 or something more suitable.

TIA,
--Vladimir

For calls to service methods resulting in an EUPNP error, return the spec error description corresponding to the error code.

Got this error when running example from readme...

I checked the documents and added the following header when serving the video, however, the subtitles still do not display.

I set the subtitlesUrl metadata in load() function either.

// serve videos and subtitles using nest.js
app.useStaticAssets(config.get<string>('publicPath'), {
    prefix: '/public/',
    // display subtitles https://gist.github.com/thibauts/5f5f8d8ce6566c8289e6
    setHeaders: (res, path) => {
      const ext = extname(path);
      const fileId = basename(path, ext);
      if (ext === '.mp4') {
        res.set('transferMode.dlna.org', 'Streaming');
        res.set('contentFeatures.dlna.org', 'DLNA.ORG_OP=01;DLNA.ORG_CI=0;DLNA.ORG_FLAGS=01700000000000000000000000000000');
        res.set('CaptionInfo.sec', `http://192.168.1.107:3000/public/subtitles/${fileId}.srt`);
      }
    },
  });

Is that mean SONY TV does not support UPnP subtitles via DIDL-Lite metadata? If so, how should I suppose to display subtitles on SONY TV?

Need your guy's help.

How about a method to efficiently destroy the node-upnp-mediarenderer-client instance?

I can't paused video on UPnP renderer. Video itself loading correctly and playing. Then I invoke client.pause(); but nothing happens. The output is { InstanceID: 0, TransportState: 'TRANSITIONING' } Please help me to solve how can I paused a stream. Thanks a lot.

I have installed node.js 0.12 on my MacBook Pro Yosemite. I wanted test your script but get this error:
play_media.js:8
if(err) throw err;

Have an idea?

With gmediarender-resurrect installed on RPi 3, how can this node module be used as a control point from the Pi terminal?

Is this to be modified? What should be in place of the url, since audio is being streamed from an Android and played from the Pi itself?

client.load('http://url.to.some/stream.avi', options, function(err, result) {
  if(err) throw err;
  console.log('playing ...');
});

Or is there some other initialization?

Hi feross

good work on this, fans and clean :)

just three idears

1/ have right click to poste http link or drag n drop of .torrent links not only magnets
2/ and think this is one is a real problem ... :)
exemple:

i start a torrent, the player start then tell me "video or audio codec not supported", ok but now i have a chromecast/upnp/airplay player and want to send the file on one of them

i can t ! if i m right there s not global settings and in your popup i only have the choice to open an external player or cancel ( then it return to homepage)

think you can simply add a select in the audio/video popup with the detected devices with a label like 'send to network player'

cancel | open with external player | open with network player

3/ a transcoder thru ffmpeg to play any codecs in the app player :)

just an idear :)...

thanks

Some TV sets (at least one tested Samsung) require special DLNA headers to be sent by the file server when responding to requests. We should provide an example server with the right headers set.

I was trying to follow your example , but I could not get it to work, im trying to get this video http://www.w3schools.com/html/mov_bbb.mp4 on my samsung tv using upnp.
