What works

  • Streaming of transcoded audio and video to the XBox
  • Browsing through your music collection by album or artist works at least for the media-export plugin. General audio playback should work for every plugin (Using Music library -> Songs)

What doesn’t work:

  • Seeking in transcoded media. This includes stopping and resuming. Pause-resume is fine though
  • Photo browsing (this is due to a bug in rygel’s HTTP code)

What’s quirky:

  • The modifications necessary for the XBox to be able to actually see rygel should be added dynamically by evaluating the user-agent of the request. Currently they are hardcoded
  • Mime-types have to be modified for the XBox, like video/avi for xvid or DivX 5 videos
