TwonkyBeam lets you send Music/Photos/Videos to UPnP Renderers (such as XBMC) from Web pages as you browse the Net. Since Platinum UPnP SDK is powering XBMC, this is cool. Check it out:

Last night, I published a spanking new version of Platinum. It fixes many issues and rare crashes (some contributed by the developer behind the awesome foobar foo_upnp plugin, merci Michael!). A lot of effort was put into revamping the Device discovery and housekeeping to prevent access violations when trying to access a device while it’s being removed from the network for example.
Windows 7 PlayTo is now supported as well as the new TwonkyBeam product from TwonkyVision. Additionally, all the DLNA compliance work I have been doing in the last months are in there.
You can find it at the usual place here. I have also started to uploaded some binary versions of the sdk (headers + libs & executables) for different platforms (osx, cygwin, win32) in case some people are just interested in trying out the sample apps. Next is documentation.
Update: I have also committed this new version to the XBMC project.
Tonight, I have finished making Platinum DLNA compliant with the DMC profile. A DMC (Digital Media Controller) browses a DMS (Digital Media Server) or MSD (Media Server Device) and control the playback of DMP (Digital Media Player) or MRD (Media Renderer Device).
In the process, I have fixed many bugs, crashes, deadlocks and will publish version 0.5.2 anytime now.
Today I have spent some time testing Platinum with DLNA tools. I am focusing on the Control Point right now. Looks like I have 2 errors and 1 warning left out of around 120 tests. Not bad!
Check the proof below
Platinum update has been pushed with many enhancements including:
- better eventing (now with moderation)
- support for HTTP keep-alive client connections
- XBox 360 compatibility (see previous post)!
- better support for dynamic addition/removal of devices
- much more…
You can find it at the usual place.
