Rygel is a collection of dlna (upnp av) services (devices in upnp speak), implemented through a plug-in mechanism. important facts and features:
* apis to ease the implementation of av devices (currently only
mediaserver v 2.0 specification).
* audio and video transcoding: source format could be anything
gstreamer's decodebin2 can handle but output formats are currently
limited to: mp3, pcm and mpeg ts. fortunately the transcoding
framework is flexible enough to easily add more transcoding targets.
* specifically designed for gnome (mobile).
* based on gupnp.
* written (mostly) in vala language.
this package privdes the files needed to build rygel plugins.
