owncloud
DLNA server application
I use ownCloud with MiniDLNA so I can play music stored in my ownCloud server at home on other devices - such as smart phones.
It makes perfect sense for me to have a built in DLNA server in ownCloud and I believe it would be a useful feature for many other ownCloud users.

@DeepDiver1975 Same issue with the bot. I guess Enhancement is written lowercase in the bots setting.

yes - fixed
I think it is perfectly fine to use minidlna to prevent duplication. The only thing that is missing is the integration between the two (owncloud/music + minidnla). If minidnla is installed at the owncloud server (can OC-music check for this?); in OC it should be possible to mark folders to be included in minidnla and what type of media is stored in the folder (V for video, A for Audio and P for Picture in minidnla terms).
Could this be done via:
A configuration folder for minidnla in owncloud environment:
Storing user data per folder (or is that to be stored in the database)
General minidnla data stored in:
After the minidnla config data has changed by an owncloud user the overall config file is to be rewrittten, for example with:
cat
minidnla can read the overall config with: minidnla -f
The biggest challenge may be to have minidnla reread the configuration data. But can that be solved with the cron task?
For completeness include the reference to update https://github.com/owncloud/core/issues/11223#issuecomment-56381139 of the earlier issue: https://github.com/ttyridal/phpdlna.
