I have a first gen IPAD and setup a UPNP for my movie collection. The IPAD sees the collection but when I attempt to play any type of movie, there's no audio/video. Is this even do-able using UPNP for IPAD? I'm hesitant on jailbreaking since I'm unfamiliar with Apple products or jailbreaking an Apple product.
To sum it up, I'm looking to see if it's possible to stream my video collection to the IPAD without jailbreaking it.

I have XBMC on my PC and setup a upnp share through XBMC.
I type in the address of my pc on my ipad and login. I see my collection on the IPAD but I can't play anything. So, is UPNP able to work this way on the IPAD or not?

Nope, what you are looking at is the web interface this will allow you to browse your collection and I think start play on the main machine. Two ways you could do it as amet says is jailbreak or get one of the apps from the app store that will allow you to view videos on the iPad. AirPlay springs to mind. Hope that helps
