we've added little configuration UI to the Rhythmbox UPnP plugin,
that allows to set:

 * the interface to use
 * the port to bind to (makes it more friendly on firewalled hosts)
 * selectively enable/disable the UPnP client, UPnP MediaServer
   and the UPnP MediaRenderer functionality
 * allows setting the names of the MediaServer and MediaRenderer,
   instead of the boring "rhythmbox on <ip>"

That information is stored in gconf.

The UI doesn't look that nice yet, but it works. ;-)

If you can think of any more needed options please let us know.

Frank
