    Streaming from UPnP

    Hi, just a quick question. What is the easiest way to play music from a UPnP server on my LAN to my local machine?

    The std totem movie player has a plugin called Coherence DLNA/UPnP client..

    Find "plugins" in the menus...enable coherence..maybe little setup somewhere.

    I had a suspicion that coherence was broken in 11.10 version of totem (at some point).

    Rhythmbox could have something similar...You can use rhythmbox as a audio server (to other PCs running rhythmbox)

    Thanks for the answer. I'm most interested in playing music from the UPnP server, but it's a headless Linux box and I don't think I wanna install Rhytmbox on it, even if there is a daemon/cli.
