libmcupnp

Free C++ UPnP(v1) MediaServer Client API.

UPnP is an attractive architecture and can be of great help for distributing media across home networks. But, needless to say, dealing with the UPnP protocol details can be a daunting and time consuming task. This API hides the protocol issues and offers an abstract high level (C++) API which allows developers to locate and access UPnP MediaServers (v1) in no time from within their own code.

The library is build on top of the Portable SDK for UPnP Devices (libupnp) project and is written in C/C++. Tested to work with:
