In my broadband router, I port forward minimserver httpd and ohnet ports. Then input the remote minimserver URL (http://myhomeddns:ohnet_port/home_minimserver_id/Upnp/device.xml) in PlugPlayer, and it let me browse (but won't show any cover art) my home minimserver from remote location.

But it won't actually play song, either on PlugPlayer buildin renderer or a network renderer in remote location.

I guess the reason is the song (and artwork) URL returned from my home minimserver, still contain my home private IP as the source IP, hence the remote renderer can not actually plays song.

Yes, I think that's what's happening.

Quote:On the other hand, foobar2000 UPnP server does work in such remote setup using PlugPlayer. I guess since foobar2000 UPnP server has a "internet access" config page with user inputted local public IP, when connecting foobar2000 UPnP from a remote location, foobar2000 UPnP will actually rewrite it's song/artwork URL as coming from the public IP, so the remote renderer/control can have full access to the private server behind NAT.

Maybe someday minimserver will support remote streaming!

If you have foobar2000 configured like this, can it stream locally and remotely at the same time, or just remotely?
