I've run this successfully on a Fedora machine and can't get it to find any rokus on an Ubuntu machine. Both on the same network both wirelessly connected. Don't understand why it would discover rokus on one and not the other. Anyone else had this issue?
Hi,
Great bit of code. I've been chasing a real gssdp / gupnp problem and are wondering how easy it would be to turn this code into a M-SEARCH listener? I need to prove that my Linux gssdp/gupnp libraries are actually doing their job. Rygel which uses theses libs seems to miss a lot of SSDP searches from various apps like iPad MConnect. Big question is that do the python libs use the same libraries as a bottom end.
Thanks,

Thanks for this code. Using it on https://github.com/pedrinho/samsung_remote to find Samsung TV's on network and works like a charme!
