Universal Media Server is a DLNA compatible UPnP Media server that supports the main operating systems, Windows, Linux and Mac OS X and enables us to turn our computer into a very powerful Media Server, in simple words it enables us to listen music to watch movies and photos from any computer, mobile phone, TV, Tablet or any other device that can access our local network.
The biggest advantage of the application is that it doesn't need any special settings, you just run it and automatically anyone within range of your network can browse the contents of your computer. UMS is based on MEncoder, FFmpeg, tsMuxeR, AviSynth, MediaInfo and other software that combine to offer support for a wide range of different media formats.
