Anybody have any free DNLA server software suggestions? More specifically, I want to be able to display subtitles as well as more file types such as MKV for most of 1080p contents. I'm using WMP server and it does its job, but it doesn't do subtitle nor plays mkv files. (if you can tell me how to do those two things from WMP server, do let me know)

One restriction I have is that I'm not looking for any software that re-encodes on the fly (most likely lose some quality this way)

What are you using?

I use a PS3 with the PS3 Media Server program. MKV's and subtitles work great!

I'm using my TV as it supports most file types including MKV.

About PS3 Media Server, I read this part "Real-time video transcoding of MKV/FLV/OGM/AVI, etc." It's probably because PS3, as far as I know, only supports MP4 format, so it has to re-encode to that format.

I'm looking for more like direct streaming to the client.

Got it.

I use this too. Transcodes what it needs to and everything works great. Lots of functions too.
