Dlna Server on Windows Phone?

chh2807 · May 10, 2014

Hello,

is there any app which can provide a dlna server on my Lumia 920 with WP8.1? Ich want to have the possibillity to browse the files stored inside my smartphone with my enigma2 driven set top box.

I tried "Nokia Play to", "Smart Player" and some other apps from the windowsphonestore but as far as i know they are just Players and no servers. With These apps i can browse the server on my set top box but i can not send files to the Server. Is there any solution for my issue?

Thanks for your help

"Nokia PlayTo" is DLNA server, not a player. But you need Nokia handset to run this app. AFAIK, there are no other DLNA servers for WP7/WP8 but WP 8.1 has new API called "PlayTo". Unfortunately in dev preview this API implementation lacks of server functionality ("regular" Windows 8.1 has, I've played video from Surface tablet to my TV). Hope, MS will add this functionality to WP 8.1 release and we'll see a lot of DLNA servers/players in Store
