PlayOn 5.0.228

MediaMall Technologies, Inc. – 163.9MB – Shareware – Windows

PlayOn is a DLNA/UPnP media server and browser that navigates content from online providers, and presents them to DLNA networked media devices. In plain English, this means you can use your game console or networked television to access content from providers like YouTube, Netflix, Hulu, CBS, ESPN, and CNN. The PC software pulls in the media streams, in the same way as your web browser, and then sends them directly over your home network to your device, even converting their formats on the fly to make sure the devices can play them. Simple as that. PlayOn leverages the existing browser and UPnP functions of game consoles and networked televisions, and uses the PC in the middle to bring in the content from the Web, passing it over your home network to the device.
