What is Rygel?

 

Rygel is a collection of DLNA (UPnP AV) services (devices in UPnP

speak), implemented through a plug-in mechanism. UPnP in simplest

words is a set of protocols that defines how different devices on a

home network can seamlessly (without or with minimum configuration)

communicate with each other. UPnP AV defines how multimedia systems

could be built on top of that. DLNA in simple words is a long list of

rules that implementers must comply to if they want to achieve

interoperability with other implementations in the market.

I am using Linux Debian.

 

and Panasonic TV plasma it have Ethernet connection and DLNA support.

 

howto configurate:

0) create local network between your device and PC with ethernet connection. Configure your DLNA device.

1)rygel-preference - to create configuration file /home/user/.config/rygel.conf

2) ryge.conf:

interface=eth0

# The port to run HTTP server on. 0 means dynamic.

port=6666 - you should open this port in your firewall (i am using Gufw)

 

[MediaExport]

enabled=true

uris=/home/user/TVrygel/work (dont use many urls - it will save time for startup)

3) Create folder /home/user/TVrygel/work

4) make links to your video files (codec of video files should be compatible to your TV) and plave it to /home/user/TVrygel

/home/user/TVrygel - links to files ( rygel dont using it.)

/home/user/TVrygel/work - links or files in usage - dont place many files or links here

5) console command - rygel

6) copy links which u want to use in /home/user/TVrygel/work

 

(if u place some files to /home/user/TVrygel/work before 5) that files will have more chances to be opened in Panasonic TV and more chances to brake rygel sturtup.) I dont knew how it working XD
