dleyna-server-service is a middleware component. It is designed to be launched by D-Bus activation when needed. It automatically shuts down when the last of its clients quits or releases its connection.

dleyna-server-service currently connects to the D-Bus session bus, although this may change in the future. It exposes four different types of objects:

1. A manager object. There is only ever a single instance of this object. It can be used to retrieve a list of the DMSs on the local area network. It is also used to perform certain server independent tasks.

2. Server objects. One separate object is exposed for each DMS available on the LAN. These objects expose interfaces that allow clients to retrieve information about the servers and to browse and search their contents.

3. Container objects. Container objects represent separate folders within the DMS. They allow clients to browse and search the contents of the folder to which they correspond.

4. Item objects. Represent individual pieces of media content published by a DMS. These objects can be used to retrieve information about media objects, such as their name, their authors, and most importantly, their URLs.
