I just thought about this my self. But I was wondering more generally if DLNA updated the Number Plays at all. I've never really tested DLNA that well. I've looked at the possibility of adding a TV with DLNA functionality in my workout room for some entertainment while I do the boring stuff that's good for the body. But if the Number Play counter is not increased, it will pose a problem. Then I'll have to look into purchasing a small cost effective HTPC instead.
