The following list provides links to informations about DLNA media devices, especially Media Servers :

• BubbleUPnP Server
• iSedora
• Mediamonkey
• Mezzmo
• Plex
• PS3MediaServer
• Rygel
• Serviio
• Tonido
• TVersity
• TVMOBiLi
• Universal Media Server
• Wild Media Server
• Windows Media Player

A list of additional media servers and client applications is available on Wikipedia which provides also a comparisons of UPnP AV media servers.

Apple developed its own proprietary streaming protocol stack/suite, called AirPlay, that is not compliant with DLNA. Another solution to stream multimedia files is based on the SMB/CIFS networking protocols, re-implementated with Samba to open windows to a wider world.

I recommend the Serviio DLNA server which I installed a week ago on my two Windows 7 desktops to replace Windows Media Players.
