Minidlna and custom upnp icons

Posted on March 19, 2010, 2:22 pm, by andrew, under Notes.

After a few hours of digging into hex and binary conversion tools, I have completed my task. If you download and compile Minidlna on a Linux box, it will show a Tux penguin for it’s upnp icon (for instance, if you were browsing over the network on the PS3). Since my Minidlna server is PowerMac G4 running Debian, I converted a few PNG images of the Apple logo into it’s hexadecimal equivalent, changed the source file icons.c, and recompiled it. Done! Click here to get the updated icons.c file.

    Hello Andrew,

    My miiDLNA is running on a FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE box.
    I would like to replace the Linux Penguin with a FreeBSD ‘Daemon’.
    What tool(s) did you use to convert a graphic file into a hex value .c file?
