Rygel 0.4.10 (A Human Reaction) is out! Another release in the stable 0.4.x series. Changes since 0.4.8: - Restart application on SIGHUP. - Fix cancellation of HTTP streams and in turn a critical leak. - Correct condition for byte-seeking. - Correctly handle boolean commandline options. - Enable check for Vala if any stamp file is absent. - Fix condition for partial content transfer. - Correct linker argument order. This should fix the build issue on Gentoo. - Work-around for an automake bug. - Limit search slice to result size. - Fix a spelling mistake in error message. - Tell valac to put debugging symbols to generated code so gdb can refer to lines in the Vala source code. Bug fixes in this release: 601395 - restart on SIGHUP All contributors to this release: Zeeshan Ali (Khattak) Jens Georg Download source tarball here .

Here goes the release log: A bug-fix release in stable 0.4.x series to fix seeking in general and playback for clients that always seek (Sony PS3). Dependency-related changes: - Require valac >= 0.7.10. All contributors to this release: Zeeshan Ali (Khattak) Download source tarball from here .

GSSDP 0.7.1 released! - Don't leak target regex. - Make GSSDPClient ignore Point to Point interfaces. - Use SO_REUSEPORT if present.

Bugs fixed: 1898 - GSSDPClient keeps autoselecting my VPN 1810 - Not possible to run multiple ssdp clients on darwin 1800 - leak of a gregex in gssdp-resource-browser 1796 - gssdp_client_new_full is declared in header but not implemented All contributors: Olivier Crête Ross Burton Iain Holmes Mattias Wadman Zeeshan Ali (Khattak) Download release tarballs from here GUPnP 0.13.2 released!

Zachary Goldberg reports : As I've been mentioning lately I have been working on using PyGObject + GObject Introspection (recently forked, now called PyGI + PyGObject + Gobject Introspection) and have some exciting news! I have been working on fleshing out a whole bunch of unit tests which exercise the entire GUPnP API. I hate a major roadblock in that PyGI did not support native callbacks! So, after a week or two detour I have implemented PyGI callbacks (which now work rather nicely, but need a bunch of stylistic cleanups and error checking before its pushed back upstream.. priorities!) as well as some working GUPnP demos. My best demo so far is about 25 lines of python which: 1) Gets all devices on one network interface 2) Scans for all the services each device provides 3) If the device is GMediaRenderer and it provides an AVTransport Service (it does...) then it 3a) Stops whatever is currently playing 3b) Loads a new URI (hardcoded from my mediatomb server for now, h
