automation/scripting of public TV

[Felix Leimbach <felix leimbach gmail com>]

Hi list,

I'm looking for ways to invoke methods on a UPNP/DLNA capable TV from a 
script.
Using gupnp-universal-cp I can successfully invoke all actions via the 
GUI already, so it's only a questions of how to *automate* that.

My search has not found any linux (or even windows) command line tool 
that allows me to specify the UDN and the action with its parameters.

My use case, just in case you are wondering:
I've got a huge TV in a public location, a kind of exhibition, and it 
should play specified videos at set times.
This process has to be fully automated.

Any idea on how to achieve that?

Felix
