11. Plumbing UPnP Devices: Plug-n-Play • PnP-X is a new feature in Longhorn • Once installed, a networked device can be enumerated next to other PnP devices in Windows • Manufacturer decides how that device will be used. Application PnP 1394/USB/PCI Flash Config PnP-X Device PC Application Physical Discovery Function Discovery Flash Config WS-D SSDP … WS-D SSDP TCP/IP

12. Longhorn and UPnP IGD 1.0 • Longhorn control point offers port mapping control for • User – easily accessible UI • Native apps -Direct Play, Remote Assistance, Messenger, RTC Stack • Extensive 3rd-party application list • Network Explorer exposes IGD, other UPnP devices via Function Discovery • Flash Config -> IGD functionality being determined UPnP Internet Gateway Device WAN Device Layer 3 Port Forwarding Service LAN Device

13. Windows Platform: qWAVE • Detect & monitor LAN bandwidth • Used for admission control and run-time feedback • Hosts can transrate to quickly adapt to network changes • Distributed admission control for consistent usage of network priority • Diagnostics enables user to distinguish problems • Provide user with actionable info to take steps to resolve problems • Solution for applications that distribute multimedia and real-time content and are affected by wireless volatility • Working in QOS WG with Intel and others toward QOS 2.0 • See session TWMO05011 - QWave and Quality of Service

14. Full Support for UPnP A/V • UPnP A/V Control Point and Media Renderer • Discover, browse, and play content from UPnP Media Servers on the home network • Control media playback on UPnP Media Renderers in your home • Seamless flow of protected content between PCs • Expose Windows Media Player Library through Windows UPnP Media Server • DLNA based advanced streaming support • RTSP/RTP • qWave

15. Home Media Ecosystem • Purchased and personal content flow easily through the home…to and from the Longhorn PC • Ensure a quality experience • Ease of use from the networking layer up through the device interaction

16. Agenda • UPnP support in Windows today • UPnP support in Windows tomorrow • What is coming for Windows Longhorn • Introduction to UPnP™ technology and DLNA™ standards • Tools for Authoring UPnP stacks • DLNA™ compatible stacks available from Intel • Call to action for partners

17. Digital Home Overview

18. UPnP Technology Overview • UPnP Forum has • Over 730 members • 6 active Working Committees, plus the Technical, Legal, and Steering Committee • 12 completed device standards (www.upnp.org) • Internet Gateway Device/Access Point • MediaServer/Media Renderer • Printer/Scanner • Basic Device • UPnP Implementers Corp has • Over 55 members • Over 120 certified products • HVAC/Lighting Controls • Device Security • Remote UI • QoS

19. DLNA Standards DLNA UPnP • DLNA (www.dlna.org) is focused on delivering an interoperability framework of design guidelines based on open industry standards to complete the cross-industry digital convergence • DLNAv1 regroups many existing standards (UPnP, HTTP, Audio and Video formats) into a single document that insures that home devices will interoperate • UPnP and UPnP/AV are important parts of building any DLNA solutions DLNA v1.0 UPnP

20. DLNA v1.0 Defined Media Server & Player • DLNAv1 defines a DMP (Digital Media Player) and DMS (Digital Media Server) • A DMP is a UPnP/AV CDS control point that can discover media on the network and render it. • A DMS is a UPnP/AV CDS device, that makes media available to the network. Media DLNA DMP DLNA DMS Media Renderer Media Server Media Transfer HTTP Client HTTP Server Playback UPnP AV Control Point UPnP Discovery UPnP AV CDS Device
