Jim,
Thanks for the tip on the old thread! In it you said:
It has a feature I don't understand. Media Control. It apparently talks to the UPnP server you're connected to and tells it what to stream to another UPnP device. In my case, the Philips Streamium in the living room is playing music from MC's UPnP server because I told it to with the Nevo software. Very cool.
Can you say any more about it? How does it compare to the Streamium's TV navigation?
Besides Nevo, there's also Rudeo's "Play and Control" software that's a UPnP control point.

I'm looking for a way to control streamed music without having to be near the media player and without having the TV on. I'm just finishing up building a new deck (just in time for winter, bummer) and I'd love to be able to sit outside and contol wha't being streamed to a UPnP media player. I haven't looked at the HP PPC's yet, but their transfletive screens are supposed to work well even in direct sunlight.
TIA...
