What is ohMedia?
ohMedia is an open standard for networked audio devices. Devices can implement it in place of or in addition to the UPnP Forum’s AV standards. It offers a number of advantages over basic UPnP:
- Playlists are stored on the renderer, allowing playback to continue when the control point leaves the network (e.g. the control point application closes or its host device powers down).
