Yes thanks, I did see reference to all that when I looked it up a little while ago with google so the chap who wrote about this to the list should have no problem whatever then.

Curiously, I did a search on Google to see whether Winamp was able to play/stream to DLNA compatible devices, it came as a surprise to me that it couldn't, DLNA has been around for the last 12 years.

Now its possible of course that I missed something and its highly likely that someone has developed a plug-in but in all events what does it really matter given that Winamp isn't being developed any more anyway.

Yes it does. Win 8.1 does have Media player. The only thing is Media Center you 
have to add on. As far as I know all they were getting rid of is media center. 
I even asked Paull Thurrott about this just to be sure. That's what he told me. 
I can see again though just to be safe.

I’m not sure whether Windows 8.1 comes with Windows Media Player? I know 
Windows 10 doesn’t, if Windows Media Player is absent then you’ll have to get 
Twonky Server, a 30 day trial of which is available and I think its $24 to buy 
the software, again good value for money.

You have options by the million here, if you have a computer running Windows 7 
then you could use that as a server or add extra functionality with software 
such as Jamcast or Twonky Server.

You can use a dedicated server such as a WD My Cloud or a rooter with the 
option to enable a DLNA/UPNP server with the connection of a hard drive and so 
it goes on.

what do you recommend for a DLNA server?

If you love your streaming and DLNA devices/servers then the Media House App is 
a “Must Have” addition to your library of DLNA compatible Apps.

Media House is an Android App which literally allows you to browse any DLNA 
server and output the content of same to a DLNA device.

For example, you could browse the media recorded on your Fetch TV Set Top Box 
and stream the recordings you’ve made to your Smart Television.

Media House is the first App I’ve seen that takes the DLNA concept and puts it 
in reverse.

For example, run Media House on your Android device and you’ll see all the 
media on your Android device on your computer, Play Station, Smart Television 
or computer with a compatible DLNA Media Player such as Windows Media Player or 
VLC installed, this would allow you to stream music straight from your Android 
Device to a player, stereo system, in fact anything which is DLNA compatible.

Media House is freely available so certainly worth a look.
