I have a DLNA capable TV and would like to mirror or access media files from my iphone.

I have seen some apps for this in the App Store, but they seem limited to what's accessible on the device. Something like ifile to DLNA smart tv would be awesome.

Is there something like this out there?

I'll try creating root or at least var/mobile symlinks to UPnP server-capable AppStore apps to find out whether they allow for browsing the entire file system when streaming UPnP. Most of them work just fine in the opposite direction (accessing files via symlinks - see my dedicated tutorial at https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/1464236/ if interested.)

I'll report back.
