## Description

MiniDLNA is a lightweight DLNA/UPnP-AV media server daemon that delivers audio, video, and image files to compatible devices on a local network. It watches media folders for changes using inotify, extracts album artwork, can stream to TiVo devices via HMO, and offers a strict DLNA mode for broader device compatibility. The program runs on Linux and Unix systems as a background service configured through a single text file. Its codebase uses GPL v2, while the UPnP discovery component is under a BSD license.
