It would be awesome if Plex for Android / iOS could act as a DLNA server to provide my&nbsp;Plex Library to DLNA enabled devices.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

I'd like to be able to share my plex library to DLNA devices while on the go. So I could play content accessible to my Mobile Plex App on&nbsp;DLNA players like a friend's xbox or my Mom's tv.

At the very least provide the apps synced content via DLNA. But it would be awesome if it could provide the same experience as the PMS DLNA server by proxying content through my phone to DLNA devices.
