In the article Raspberry Pi - Music streaming to the Raspberry Pi via DLNA client<\/a><\/em><\/strong> I have already described how to use the Raspberry Pi as a playback device for content from a DLNA server. DLNA describes a standard with which you can easily stream content across devices in your own network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, you can use the DLNA standard to stream videos, music or photos from a data source\/server to your SmartTV. Perfect for presenting your own photo collection or playing your own music on the TV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this case, the SmartTV or the Raspberry Pi mentioned above would be the playback device. Of course, you also need a server from which the content to be played can be obtained. This is where OpenMediaVault comes into play. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

OpenMediaVault is not just a simple NAS. Thanks to the many plugins, its functionality can also be extended. With the MIniDLNA plugin, for example, you can easily add the function of a DLNA server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What you need to do is described in the following article.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Safety instructions <\/span><\/h2>\r\n

I know the following notes are always kind of annoying and seem unnecessary. Unfortunately, many people who knew "better" have lost eyes, fingers or other things due to carelessness or injured themselves. Data loss is almost negligible in comparison, but even these can be really annoying. Therefore, please take five minutes to read the safety instructions. Because even the coolest project is not worth injury or other trouble.<\/span>

Helpful articles:
<\/strong>Before you start with this article you should have prepared the RaspberryPi so that it is accessible via the network and controllable via SSH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The following three articles describe what needs to be done to prepare the RaspberryPi:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
