Using MythTV 0.21 (CVS - 14921).
uPnP works quite well (for videos) - though doesn't show the directory
structure - so end up with a tonne of completely unsorted/random videos.
I believe there are some more uPnP improvements on newer releases.

I find quickest/easiest method for music via uPnP is ushare (which is
still lacking good video support (shows folders etc as expected, won't
actually play videos, for me at least).
