I got my DLNA Home Media to work by installing PlayON on one of my PC's I plays music and displays pictures very well.

But there is something missing...

Has anyone figured out to shuffle play music or pictures?
 
Scott im trying to get hulu to stream with playon and no luck. Yes pictures and music work, i bet videos are not supported yet.
 
Is there an application like Play On for Mac OS X? Sure would love to be able to stream from iTunes, iPhoto and iMovie, SnowTape, etc.

Probably the best DLNA servers I know of for OS X are the ones made by Nullriver.
Nullriver Software : Products : MediaLink
Nullriver Software : Products : Connect360

The first one is branded to be for PS3, and I tried it with the 922, got into it and was able to play music and look at photos. I had the connect360 setup at one point but I haven't bothered to try it with the 360.

Dish has the PS3MediaServer on their suggested app list (which is a Java app that I've never bothered to try):

Rivet is another DLNA server for OS X, but I can't seem to get it to work with the 922.

No AAC music support

I got some of the photos and videos to work from my Mac using some of the above programs, but it looks like the 922 doesn't support AAC audio files (just mp3 as far as I can tell).

This is a bummer for me because most of my iTunes library is AAC. Scott, or anyone else, do you know if Dish plans to add AAC file support along with video support?
 
 
So, can you view recorded programing from the 922 to a DLNA capable device? Is this planned for the future if not currently working?
