Rygel Server Plugins

Rygel provides some server plugins by default. You may also implement your own server plugins.

Tracker plugin

Rygel's Tracker plugin use Tracker to discover media files and export them via UPnP.

This plugin may not be used at the same time as the Media Export plugin because both serve a similar purpose.

Media Export plugin

The Media Export plugin recursively exports folders and files specified in the user configuration. This plugin supports all types of URIs that gio/gvfs and gstreamer can handle. This plugin uses gupnp-dlna's APIs directly to extract metadata from media and thus does ""not"" use Tracker.
