| Post subject: | Can DLNA clients delete recordings? |
I'm thinking about putting some sort of DLNA client on my wish list. Perhaps something like the Samsung BD390 blue ray player that also has a Netflix front-end. IMO, something that can act as a Netflix client, a MythTv frontend, and play DVDs would be the "killer applicance." It needs to be silent and boot up quickly. However, there's one big question I haven't been able to answer: After watching a recording with a DLNA client (e.g. BD390), can you delete the recording the way you can with a MythTv frontend? I've found postings from people using a PS3 as a DLNA client complaining that they can't delete recordings. But, I don't know if that's a shortcoming of the PS3 or of the DLNA protocol itself. Can anybody shed any light on whether or not DLNA clients can delete recordings? |

All of my research indicates that DLNA clients can't delete recordings. It also seems that skip forward/backward and ff/rewind generally don't work ether. That, IMO, makes DLNA pretty much useless... |

This article has dissuaded me from purchasing a DLNA TV: http://gxben.wordpress.com/2008/08/24/w ... l-so-much/ I'm guessing, (but not sure) that a uPNP client integration into the TV would be a desirable substitute. |
