ReadyDLNA iOS app
Anyone tried the new ReadyDLNA iOS app for remote DLNA? Looks interesting but I haven't had a chance to give it a whirl.
The name can be a bit confusing.
The core of the iOS app is ReadyNAS Remote. It allows DLNA communication over the Remote tunnel. So you can access media from your ReadyNAS via ReadyDLNA to iOS devices. DLNA is not a routable protocol, to go over the Internet, so using Remote works well for this offering. At the moment, it does not offer transcoding, so you may need a high bandwidth pipe to play some content. Transcoding is planned for the future on supported systems (fast enough CPU). This 'app' may be merged into the standard Remote iOS app as well, since it is more a 'tab' of that app.
