YOu can try CIDERO.

The Cidero UPnP controller provides a means for URL links to be passed directly to it, bypassing the need for a UPnP server for the above type of usage scenario. A simple 'remoteURL' command passed to the controller via HTTP is used to specify the URL and begin playback on an active UPnP media renderer. A small Java application, 'RemoteURLRequestor' handles the details of this transaction, and is provided as a simple 'gateway' between a Web browser and the controller. The Mozilla Firefox browser, when configured with the 'Launchy' extension, can be set up to invoke the 'RemoteURLRequestor' without too much effort. Other browsers may certainly be able to use this model as well.

Hi,

thanks for the information. sorry, but i sttoped working with the project. what i've managed to do was detecting the playlist on Intel's media server and play it on the renderer. the problem is, that i had to put a URL of music file which points toa hard drive location, but i couldn't use the location from the contentdirectory service. that means that i wasn't able to change the content of playlist file from the control point. anyone knows if it's possible (jus a curiosity)?
