Serviio is a freeware media server designed to let users stream music, video or image files to DLNA compliant televisions, game consoles, Blu-ray players, games console and Android or Windows Mobile devices on a home network.[1]
Overview
The free version of Serviio will stream media within a home network to connected TVs, Blu-ray players, set-top boxes, the Sony PS3 and Microsoft Xbox 360. Since it is DLNA compliant, it will stream supported devices on the same network. Serviio also has a "Pro" license for $25 that will allow users to access their libraries outside the home. This license also enables dynamic transcoding to convert higher bit rate video or audio files into lower bit rate formats to permit viewing on slower broadband connections.[1] Another paid feature is "media browser" that allows users to stream content to a web browser (desktop or mobile) at home or on the go.[2]
Pro Applications
The Pro license permits users to stream to third party applications for Android and Windows devices at home or on another network. In addition, users can use the server to watch online content including live TV or RSS feeds.[1]
Supported media formats
The server can read and if required transcode several media types for playback.[3]
