Question two UPnP-MediaServers
Don't know in which sub-group to post this. So I try it here.

Before I start: Am I right that there is no way to test Xbian on a i386 like system before buying a Pi?

I tested OpenELEC (run on intel cpus without problems) with Kodi and got a problem to setup two UPnP-Servers for my music. I need two seperated music archives. But Kodi itself doesn't offer that and OpenELEC doesn't have the abbility to install other software with apt-get or things like that.

But I really like Kodi and all that video-playing stuff from samba-shares (have NAS here), etc.

Because I can not test it I am asking if it is possible with xbian to setup two UPnP-Server instances?
How could this be possible?

Which server runs there? Can I just create a second instance?
Or can I install a second different server (e.g. twonky)?
How can I install software in xbian? apt-get I think because it is debian based?

RE: two UPnP-MediaServers
No way to test xbian as it is ARM CPU only. You can use more than one DLNA server on XBian.

We are an apt based Debian distribution.

RE: two UPnP-MediaServers
I believe there is a RPi image for VirtualBox but I wasn't overly impressed with it.

If you could explain your setup and why you need 2 uPnP servers. that would help a lot. You can link more than one uPnP server in Xbian.

I personally like miniDLNA as I have that running on a spare RPi B.

Xbian is open - which is why I use it. apt-get works perfectly.
