 ===== AGL Demonstration Platform =====
-The version of Rygel found on AGL Demonstration Platform is customized to integrate the [[https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=715145|LightMediaScanner Plugin]], able to communicate via [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D-Bus|D-Bus]] with the embedded-oriented **LightMediaScanner** media indexer.

+Both Rygel and LightMediaScanner are started automatically at system startup. Then, using a UPnP client such as [[http://www.videolan.org/vlc/|VLC]] or [[http://www.eezupnp.de/|eezUPnP]], you will be able to discover media just like in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQNBTJ0U5Mo|this video]].

 **LightMediaScanner** is able to do fast discovery and indexing, but it currently lacks the ability to initiate audio/video rendering using the [[http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org|GStreamer]] media engine.
