Technologies for service discovery and media sharing are disclosed. A described technique includes receiving, at a first device, service information for a streaming service provided by a second device, the first device and second device being on different first networks, the first networks being different local multicast networks; inserting an entry in a multicast domain name system (mDNS) cache of the first device based on the service information such that the streaming service is (i) discoverable by the first device via a mDNS query and (ii) accessible through a second network that interconnects the first networks; and sending streaming information from the first device to the second device through the second network for the streaming service.

Service discovery across different networks

Systems and techniques for service discovery and media sharing are described. For example, a described technique includes identifying, at a first device, a streaming service; receiving a request to establish communication with a second device, the first device and the second device being on different first networks, the first networks being different local multicast networks; and providing, in response to the request, service information to the second device to cause the second device to internally publish multicast domain name system (mDNS) information regarding the streaming service such that the streaming service is (i) discoverable by the second device via a mDNS query and (ii) accessible through a second network that interconnects the first networks.
