Beeftweeter posted:. in comparison most newer devices barely support it at all, if they do to begin with, for some reason DLNA is like RSS. It was hot, only a few turbo nerds used it, and now it's mildly in the way of making money. All of the use cases I know for it are all things I expect someone is going to want me to install an app over in 2024.

All of the use cases I know for it are all things I expect someone is going to want me to install an app over in 2024. ehh i get the analogy, but while RSS can still be found very rarely, DLNA is still in fairly active use in comparison. i even still use it sometimes because it's easy, as noted VLC supports it and therefore so does anything that runs VLC (which is a lot of poo poo, and if it's not natively supported most things that don't do support chromecast/miracast/airplay). the rest is dead on though, it's been disappearing because manufacturers want you to use their bespoke app (that probably nonetheless uses libav as VLC does). i was going to say DLNA is too free but i was eating lunch lol e: back when i had a directv stb with DLNA support i set up mediatomb to stream all of my linux isos, for example (i also had to make a script to on-the-fly transcode h264 to mpeg-2, lol. i used ffmpeg of course). they definitely don't want you to do that today because streaming apps and don't-call-it-PPV "rentals" are there now Beeftweeter fucked around with this message at 19:57 on Apr 23, 2024 |

my favourite line about the K400 was you use it for 10 years until it breaks and then you buy another one, if logitech ever discontinue it the using computer in bed market is going to be devastated

Use it so I can really get in there when moving the bit around instead of doing a bad lean to use the laptop keyboard. Costs less than $20.
