xbmsd is a file sharing daemon that uses the Xbox
Media Streaming Protocol (XBMSP) supported by the
Xbox Media Center. It also supports the XBMSP
Server Discovery Protocol (XBSDP). Its main
features are mapping files to arbitrary local
files or HTTP files/streams, support for
filetype-specific, "synthetic" mplayer
configuration files, and support for filtering
files with arbitrary programs, which can, for
example, re-encode media files on the fly.
