Interoperability with other +devices in the market is achieved by conformance to very strict +requirements of DLNA and on the fly conversion of media to format that +client devices are capable of handling. + +Note: On Slackware the rygel daemon must be started and stopped +manually. There are controls to start/stop the daemon in the +gnome-control-center "Sharing" panel, but these controls are hard-coded +to talk to systemd and will not start/stop the daemon. Instead, the +daemon can be run directly from its installed path of: + + /usr/bin/rygel + |
