>The following images made up the demo:

>o poky-image-mediatomb
>o poky-image-rygel

>poky-image-nas
>--------------
>The poky-image-nas image boots your device as a network attached storage
>device. It provides a DHCP service and an NFS server. We used this image
>to store all our media.

>poky-image-mediatomb
>--------------------
>The poky-image-mediatomb image adds a UPnP content provider via the
>mediatomb package. This image mounts the media share from the NAS and
>makes it available to UPnP renderers.

>poky-image-rygel
>----------------
>The poky-image-rygel image provides gupnp tools and the rygel media

boards list used in this demo.

Also a simple figure is always more intuitive to catch the intention here. :-)

>o Should we modify the mediatomb image to:
>   o automatically mount a specific share from the NAS?
>   o add something to the config to automatically scan the
>     media share?
>o The poky-image-rygel description needs to be updated as we finalize

One thought is, could we convert this demo page into something more useful
as the collection for various use cases on Yocto which can be contributed by
any user, and then here UPnP is the 1st example?
