Linux DLNA sever setup
#1
Hello. I want to setup XBMC as DLNA server and have some questions:

1) Is it good idea to use xbmc for dlna? I know other dlna servers and not sure which one to use (maybe Serviio). Of course, I installed XBMC mainly for its media center functions and dlna is only an extra. The alternative is to run XBMC for playback and other DLNA server on background.
2) Is there good support of subtitles (with cyrillic)?
3) I enabled dlna (upnp) option and successfully discovered the XMBC server from remote PC (dlna client) but there was no video/mp3 contents. I am not sure how to setup a playlist.
4) If I enable a firewall (ufw in ubuntu) which ports must be open to use DLNA?

Thanks in advance for any help.
