Thanks for the reference. I downloaded pymediaserver and it didn't 
immediately work, so I've started hacking on it... Interestingly, the 
MP101 asks for a different ContentDirectory than your hardware, and 
seems to cause the HTTPChannel to freeze after a POST once that was fixed.

So, more coding for me!
