====== DLNA ======

  * [[DLNA HTTP Requests]]
  * [[x264]]
  * [[Matroska]]
  * [[MP4]]
  * [[minidlna]] - best DLNA server, evar! :D
  * [[PS3]]

** Note: ** Right now, all of this is specific to my Sony Blu-ray players that have DLNA support.  See [[http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/support-info.pl?info_id=959|file formats supported by Sony]].

=== What works ===

  * MP4: baseline, medium, high profile; levels 3.1+; title tag
  * MKV: baseline, medium, high profile; levels 3.1+; VOBSUB, closed captioning, AC3 audio, chapters
  * Resume playback on titles, during same power session
  * On MP4 and MKV, Sony Blu-ray players will drop the extension, so you can have some kind of a naming scheme.
==== What doesn't work ====

** Note: ** This is actually my Sony BDP client that doesn't do this, not minidlna

  * MKV: title tags :(
  * Resume playback on titles (after power-cycle) :(

==== Matroska title tags ====

** Note: ** This is actually my Sony BDP client that doesn't do this, not minidlna

I tried tagging the title in these places:

  * Movie name
  * Title tag
  * Track name

Tried using mmg and mkvpropedit to set the tags.  None of them worked, sadly. :(

MP4 worked natively.

==== minidlna hacking to do ====

  * Store more details in SQLite database -- number of times played, which media device is requesting, etc.
  * Figure out how resume-playback works -- I'm guessing that the DLNA server makes a request for a starting point
