• Common devices (TV, VCR, CD/DVD Player, audio
  player, )
• Enhance existing features
• Better compatibility checking (resolution, sample
  rates)
• Improved recording control
• New Features
• DRM/CP, scheduled recording, multicast, access
  control
• Backward compatible with existing specs
• Based on UPnP V1 Device Architecture
• Existing actions/state variables will remain
  unchanged
