I'm trying to play around with UPnP. Specifically, I'm trying to browse the content library of a PS3 Media Server. I tried upnp.dll (a COM library that ships with windows) and found it easy to use.

Opening router ports by UPnP in Ruby

To me that implies that I'll need to use COM interop with Microsoft's upnp.dll (and the SL application will have to be out of browser and platform specific).
