On this week's show ask the question: “What Happened to DLNA Technology” We also read your emails and the week's news. Also, say hi to Evelyne, our virtual news reader. News: Plex warns users to update systems immediately after detecting worrying security issue Samsung's $30K Micro RGB TV Is Here Sling TV launches single day, weekend, week-long pass options Apple's new ‘Charismatic' smart home OS is getting set to take on Alexa and Google What Happened to DLNA Technology? DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) technology, once a popular standard for sharing media like photos, videos, and music between devices on a home network, has largely faded from prominence. Here's a concise overview of what happened: Peak Popularity (2000s–Early 2010s): DLNA, introduced in 2003, enabled seamless media streaming between certified devices like TVs, computers, smartphones, and gaming consoles. It was widely adopted by manufacturers (e.g., Sony, Samsung, LG) and supported by software like Windows Media Player. By 2010, millions of devices were DLNA-certified, with a focus on interoperability and ease of use. Decline in Relevance: Rise of Proprietary Ecosystems: By the mid-2010s, companies like Apple (AirPlay), Google (Chromecast), and Amazon (Fire devices) pushed proprietary streaming protocols that integrated tightly with their ecosystems, offering smoother user experiences and cloud-based features DLNA lacked. Complexity and Inconsistency: DLNA's interoperability was hampered by inconsistent implementation across devices. Some devices supported only specific file formats or had clunky interfaces, frustrating users. Shift to Cloud and Apps: The rise of streaming services like Netflix, Spotify, and YouTube shifted media consumption to app-based, cloud-driven platforms. DLNA's focus on local network sharing became less relevant as users prioritized internet-based content. Emerging Standards: Technologies like Miracast, Wi-Fi Direct, and Bluetooth offered simpler or more versatile alternatives for device-to-device connectivity, further eroding DLNA's niche. DLNA's End (2017): The DLNA organization officially dissolved in 2017, ending certification and development. While some devices and software (e.g., Plex, VLC) still support DLNA for backward compatibility, it's no longer a focal point for manufacturers or consumers. Current Status: DLNA remains functional on older devices, but it's largely been supplanted by modern protocols and platforms. For example, smart TVs now rely on app ecosystems or protocols like Google Cast. Some enthusiasts still use DLNA for local media servers, but it's a niche use case. From our archives (June 2012) What's missing? So if you've tried any of the DLNA servers out there, you've probably seen how bare they are. With so many consumer electronics devices supporting DLNA playback, it seems a really good DLNA server would sell like hotcakes. Here's what we think the perfect DLNA server would do. Support Transcoding. Some DLNA Servers support transcoding, but not all of them. Transcoding allows the server to change the format of the video your watching or song you're listening to to something that the player can actually play back. Otherwise you'll get a bunch of failures trying to play back stuff like DivX and Xvid. Support Cover Art. Most DLNA servers will just grab a video frame out of a movie file and display it as a thumbnail. Why not replace that with the actual cover of the movie? They're easy to find online. It might take a little more setup up front to get all the covers downloaded and in the right place, but it would be worth it. Categorize videos. A few of the servers support a limited amount of categorization for video files, but what you'd really like to do is tag a movie with a genre, a year, rating, actors, director, producer, etc. and use any of those pieces of information to find the right movie. Built-in DVD backup. Consumers want a way to backup their movies. DVDs don't last forever. Allow a user to create a backup copy of their DVD on a hard drive. Of course they'll also be able to watch it from any network connected DLNA player, but that's just a slight benefit of the nifty backup feature. Of course, if you could then provide the built-in... Connection to IMDB. Allow users to automatically populate cover art and meta data info by selecting the correct movie from an online database like IMDB. This would greatly simplify the chore of adding movies to a video library. While this tends to be a one-time event (once per movie at least), it can be painful and tends to wear on you after a while. Support online sources. Right now PlayOn is the only server we've found that supports online video sources. It, however, doesn't support local sources. It looks like that functionality will be coming soon, but the two ideas need to merge for a really great product.
1 Corinthians 12:12 (NKJV) “For as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of that one body, being many, are one body, so also is Christ.”
In this powerful message, we're reminded of Jesus' profound words: 'Let not your heart be troubled.' Drawing from John 14, we explore the deep significance of trusting God amidst life's storms. The story of Jesus calming the sea in Mark 4 beautifully illustrates this trust, challenging us to remain peaceful even when circumstances seem dire. We're encouraged to recognize the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit, our constant source of peace and strength. This lesson invites us to renew our minds, focusing on God's promises rather than our problems. By doing so, we can cultivate an unshakeable faith that withstands life's trials, becoming a powerful witness to those around us. Let's embrace the peace Christ offers and learn to be 'untroubled in our troubles,' transforming our thought life and deepening our relationship with God.

Matthew 5:14-16 (NIV) YOU ARE THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
Tonight's talk is titled, Pentecost: Repentance Required If you have your bibles, lets jump into our key text, turn to Acts 2:38
At the end of the day, when it comes to People being are our Purpose, I can't overstate how important our attitude is. Without the right attitude, it'll be very easy to look past the one God's wanting us to influence.
We remembered how Pentecost wasn't just an event… it was a turning point. It was the birth of the Church, the coming of the Spirit, and the unleashing of power into everyday believers.

At the end of the day, when it comes to People being are our Purpose, I can't overstate how important our attitude is. Without the right attitude, it'll be very easy to look past the one God's wanting us to influence.
There's not a more perfect way to kick off our next “Core Value” Live Like… People are our Purpose, than with baptism Sunday. Today we get the wonderful privilege of celebrating with our church family their bold declaration of faith in Christ with baptism.
Think about it like this, The Great Commission tells us, “go make disciples” and without question, discipleship absolutely includes money, giving, generosity. Jesus is the one who told us, GIVE and it will be given to you…
In this powerful follow-up to “Pentecost: The Forgotten Moment,” we shift our focus from the event to the people—those who responded with obedience, and those who didn't. Out of 500 who saw the resurrected Jesus, only 120 waited, prayed, and obeyed. These were the Remnant. This week's message challenges us to evaluate: Are we part of the 120, or are we clinging to comfort like the 380? Discover what it means to be a faithful, obedient remnant in today's culture. Learn to let go of the ropes, say yes to God's call, and pursue the fullness of the Spirit that was launched at Pentecost. It's not about numbers—it's about obedience.
As we continue through our “Live Like…” series is, we are talking about generosity being a normal part of our lives. GENEROUS— A readiness to GIVE more than necessary. And for the Christian, giving is the nature of our Father. As a matter of fact, I'm sure most of you have either heard or said, “You're acting just like your father”
This is our core verse for today Acts 2:1–4 (NKJV)“When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place… Suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind… and there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire… and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit…”
GENEROSITY is ultimately a heart posture, an attitude about giving. GENEROSITY is our norm is a revelation we're still growing in as a church, but we've definitely made it consistent practice.
Let's remember, at it's core GENEROSITY is ultimately a heart posture, an attitude about giving.
Serving is our Privilege” simply allows us the opportunity to discover what God will do through anyone willing to be open to their assignment.
Jesus told us, “these signs will follow them that believe,” we simply have to be open to embracing our new creation. This spiritual reality is for every believer! We are speaking spirits, confined to humanity. And tongues is simple speaking a spiritual language. As a matter of fact Jesus actually told us, “My words are Spirit.”
Jesus Himself didn't even start His earthly ministry until the Holy Spirit came upon Him. Think about it, both the public ministry of Jesus in the gospels and the public ministry of the church through the book of Acts began with the empowerment of the Holy Spirit.

The reason “Serving is our Privilege” is we understand that as we offer our lives as a sacrifice to God, He inspires our heart to want to be part of what He's doing. As a matter of fact, Jesus takes it personal when we serve. “When you've done it unto the least of one of these, you've done unto Me.”

Jesus repeatedly made this statement, “The Greatest in the Kingdom will be a SERVANT”
Remember, Spirit within, Spirit upon— Think about it, Jesus is the FIRSTBORN, our example of one born of the Spirit and He's the one who actually said, “The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me” Don't forget, Jesus repeatedly talked to His disciples about the Holy Spirit.
Earful enters 2025 with an exciting special guest (Trevor Adamo), and an exciting new medium (videogames, as we cover "Jumper: Griffin's Story" (2008)). And in a stroke of luck, our special guest is in fact an expert in jumper-based videogames. Analysis of the movie also takes place, as we anticipate airports, inspect the Big Board, track Roland's race (?) against the clock, and debate whether David or Griffin is the hero of the movie. Featuring an exciting mpv vs VLC update, and also the famous segments "With Fresh Eyes" and "How Does It End?"

Worship is one of the most spiritual things a Christian can take part in. And without question one of the best ways to experience God's presence in a more tangible way from our human position. Here's the thing, WORSHIP IS OUR DESIRE, and I realize that it's not going to be everybody's desire, but I am presenting to you this morning the opportunity to be a part of where we're going.
Worship is a spiritual avenue for the people of God to not only acknowledge, but reverence God for who He is. To connect with our Father on a more authentic level.

In “The Live Like Life” there has to be transformation in our thinking for Faith to be our Response. It's the only way a human can engage in a different dimension, in spiritual living. And believing is the key that unlocks faith.
