3rd Party Plugins - (fb2k) / Re: foo_upnp
Last post by lokilin -Yeah I just run V1 and V2 in same time now XD.Agreed - having tried many UPnP servers nothing comes close in terms of flexibility.Really need 64 bit version for v2!Updating this very fine component seems not to be a simple task.
Can't leave v1 for media server......
It's based on an old UPnP library that is not even Unicode aware (in addition, uppercase and lowercase letters appear separate when sorting).
In fact, its developer recommends MinimServer as replacement - not a good option, since it lacks the true beauty of foo_upnp: the ability to use foobar2000 title formatting functions (a must-have in my view).
A pity.
A workaround I have come to is have 1.6 portable with foo_upnp running minimized at startup, then have a seperate v2 portable as my "listening" instance.
The benefit of that is the server is always running while the computer is on, not just when FB2K is open.
