# DLNA Digital Media Renderer

> DLNA Digital Media Renderer is a built-in integration for Home Assistant. It has 157k installs sharing analytics and works locally.

DLNA Digital Media Renderer is a built-in integration that controls DLNA media players on the local network. It adds media player entities to Home Assistant for the renderer devices it connects to. Home Assistant can discover compatible devices on the network and offer to add them, or a device can be added manually by its URL. Setup is done in the UI. Options cover showing incompatible media when browsing, the event listener callback URL, the event listener port, which is random if not set, and whether to poll for device availability.
