I had someone ask a question about DLNA today.
There is a DLNA topic on our wiki:
https://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/DLNA
There are usually three parts, and these are usually but not always on three devices.
DLNA Server -- has the media files
DLNA Renderer -- plays the media files
and
DLNA Controller -- controls playback
In baseball terminology,
the server is the pitcher
the renderer is the catcher
the controller is the coach sending signals
AndrewFG is the umpire
The controller tells the others what to send, the renderer plays it.
OK, that's a terrible analogy. Anyone have any other sports analogies?

No, it's actually fine, but a small edit:
The controller tells the server what to send, the renderer plays it.
Boom.
