The Sender service indicates the presence of and provides information concerning an Openhome Sender.
 
 
 
An Openhome Sender broadcasts music on a network in a way that is playable by an Openhome Receiver.
 
 
 
= Actions =
 
==Counters==
 
Counters are used to manage the changing of the Track, Details, and Metatext information.
 
 
 
When a track changes, the Track Count is incremented, the Uri and Metadata are set, the Details Count is set to zero, the Details are defaulted to blank and zero values, the Metatext Count is set to zero, and the Metatext is set to blank.
 
 
 
Subsequent updates to the Details and Metatext are accompanied by increments in their respective Counters.
 
 
 
The Counters action can be used by clients that are unable to partake in UPnP eventing in order to establish changes in the information provided by the Info Service.
 
 
 
==Track==
 
Reports current track information concerning the current media:
 
*Uri
 
*Metadata
 
 
 
==Details==
 
Reports details concerning the current media:
 
*Duration
 
*Bit Rate
 
*Bit Depth
 
*Sample Rate
 
*Lossless
 
*Codec Name
 
 
 
==Metatext==
 
Reports dynamic textual information concerning the current media.
 
 
 
This currently amounts to broadcast information from internet radio stations, but the same mechanism could be used for other purposes in the future.
