uShare worked for me, but the problem is sorting files. Imagine finding that nice picture you took in your 3 years ago vacation amongst your 18,000+ files? Or that wonderful music in you 7,000+ library?
As long as they create a better sorting, it will be good.

This is the best guide. I have read at least ten of them and they all seemed like too much work. This took like two minutes and worked perfectly.

opps the above has a typo in it its supposed to be:

capsgram@capsgram:~$ ushare -p 49153 -x -c /path/to/your/media
Interface eth1 is down.
Recheck uShare’s configuration and try again !
uShare (version 1.1a), a lightweight UPnP A/V and DLNA Media Server.

Thanks, ushare doesnt work for me with the easy commands:
sudo /etc/init.d/ushare stop
sudo /etc/init.d/ushare start

for some reason I have to use:
ushare -p 49153 -x -c /path/to/your/media

for it to work, any other way and my xbox360 doesn´t receive.

I get this when i use the above command:
when attempting to stop
* Stopping uShare UPnP A/V & DLNA Media Server: ushare start-stop-daemon: warning: failed to kill 9102: No such process

when attempting to start:

capsgram@capsgram:~$ ushare -p 49153 -p 49153 -x -c /path/to/your/media
Interface eth1 is down.
