Disclosed herein are representative embodiments of methods, apparatus, and systems for facilitating the streaming of digital media content to a remote device. In one exemplary embodiment, a translation layer translates markup language code and/or scripting language code (e.g., code that complies with the HTML5/W3C standard) to comply with a streaming protocol (e.g., a streaming protocol specified by the Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA)) to facilitate streaming of digital content (e.g., digital video, digital audio, or digital images) to remote devices (e.g., a digital television, digital audio player, game console, etc.). In some embodiments, a translation layer translates streaming protocol events at a remote device into other events (e.g., events specified in the HTML5 standard) at a local computing device. Local/remote playback switching logic can also facilitate switching between local playback and remote playback.
