Hello Everybody
I wasn't too sure where to put this question and hope this is where it should have gone to.
My question is about Kodi and its ability to render media.
Here's what what I'm trying to do.
I have lightweight upnp players in every room. These devices have very limited hardware and thus rendering some 1080p Movies locally is impossible.
Now my idea was to install Kodi / XBMC on my NAS (where any of the files are located) and use Kodi / XBMC to render the media remotely and stream it to the "lighwieght" devices.
Is Kodi / XBMC capable of rendering media remotely and simply stream it to a upnp client? I saw that Kodi can act as a upnp server but did not find whether it is rendering it as well.
Thanks very much for your info.
Regards
Chris
