In your first message you said that The Sony TV was DTLA compliant. Because you 
specifically mentioned it, I assumed you knew what that meant. Your streaming 
server *will not* be DTLA compliant unless you are running Windows media center 
edition or something.

I did not want to bring it up, because there was no evidence that your problem 
was DRM related.

The server does not support Digital Transmission Content Protection:

In essence, you are supposed to encrypt the video stream lest you copy it.

I am a little surprised the TV would refuse to work with an unencrypted stream, 
which is why I did not respond to your first post.

Hi James

I said the TV was DLNA compliant, those links at the brief look I had appears 
to be the sort of encryption you would see on a HD signal via HDMI that would 
prevent you say recording HD content to your PVR device and then playing it 
back to a blu-ray recorder and "recording" it to disc. I had done a fair bit of 
googling on this before posting to the list, it seems Sonys' implementation of 
DLNA is a bit "loose" shall we say, I have seen a lot of people having issues 
with DLNA complaint NAS devices not working with Sony TV`s. As I have stated in 
a previous post it does work with wmp12, but it is not elegant or the solution 
I want for the reasons I stated earlier.

Regards

Graeme
