In the intellectual property notice from the PS4 or on-line is Playready and WMDRM. WMDRM is the DRM used for DTCP-IP which is used for commercial DLNA. The combination of Playready and WMDRM is used for DLNA CVP2 which Sony has plans to support on all their CE platforms.
There can be other uses for WMDRM but Sony paying for WMDRM rather than using a Open source DRM means they have a need for a DRM standard between devices outside their ecosystem. DTCP-IP uses the less secure WMDRM only inside the home.
To my mind this 90% confirms DLNA was always planned for the PS4. DLNA CVP2 is the endgame goal for Sony CE platforms and the reason they started the DLNA.ORG in 2003. Playready can be used by Netflix and others but it must be supported by Sony (tied to the hardware and low level OS) so Playready support means nothing,
PS3, Xbox 360, WiiU already have DLNA CVP2 support in the works
Sony may be gaming the California Power board which is now deciding how to mandate power regulations for Game consoles. IPTV is sure to be regulated and DLNA CVP2 is IPTV. If Sony insists the PS4 is a game console not a STB and Game console they may evade some of the power regulations. This is the only reason I can find for the PS4 FAQ document saying that DLNA will not be supported on the PS4.

Yeah, it doesn't look noticeably dimmer. Or maybe I just didn't notice the difference. Has Sony said how much more power the dimmer saves?
Probably next to nothing. They don't take up much juice as it is. The dimming is more for the complaints of it being too bright in dark room, I'm assuming.
What did you expect? They said they wouldn't allow you to turn it off, so that implies that you'll still be able to see it no matter what setting you set it to.
Considering it's an LED, the amount that the lowest dim setting is at, is still a lot less bright than the full brightness.

Sony could solve the led problem by reducing the light area ie. Just have a few led within the centre circle light up and Not have the whole thing light up

Does that mean that for content to be streamed to the PS4 via DLNA, the PS4 and the content will have to handshake before it works ? Does it mean that I won't be able to stream Giant Bomb videos to my PS4 ?
I'm so excited. This actually worked! Booted up fine with this update!
Where did you find it? I'm in the EU and it's not listed in the PSN store.
It sounds pretty exciting. How do you think Sony will go about announcing it? Enthusiasts know about DLNA etc., but the average consumer doesn't.
Do you think they'll demo a cable box streaming to the PS4 during E3?

Hold on a minute... You can have a custom screensaver in the new update?!!
Wooooooo!
Wooooooo!
The streamer has to choose to stream at 720p.
If someone figures out how to set it, please tell me. As far as I can tell there's nothing there. I want to set some Crunchyroll screencaps =[

Just to clarify:
Sound&Screen -> Audio Output Settings -> Primary Output port -> change it from HDMI to Optical (and then it allows you to e.g. only mark 5.1DD)
This doesn't fix that issue?
From teardown of a controller I saw, it's only a single LED with a set of diffusers.
Hell, I feel I'm a media enthusiast I don't understand this new version of DLNA. The current version I consider terrible compared to other media options like Plex, XBMC or even Google Cast.
So I don't know why I should be enthused about this new standard/protocol.

I still can't believe there's no pause option when downloading. I just turned on my ps4 a moment ago and it instantly started download a patch for MGS GZ. I had to cancel it after it downloaded 35MB due to my data allowance being not great.

No it doesn't, because even when you select Optical, Audio keeps coming out from the HDMI Port simultaneously and the PS4 gets confused, because the HDMI port of the TV can only receive stereo audio.

Try reading this DLNA CVP2 whitepaper.
DLNA CVP2 is a HTML5 app that has HTML5 features and the platform can support:
Java for XTV and Smart Home apps
Second screen
APIs for a DLNA 1.5 renderer/player
Playready for VOD and other streaming services
WMDRM for DLNA DTCP-IP
DASH adaptive IPTV streaming
APIs for HD Homerun tuners
Gesture control
Voice control
Web RTC supports Skype like video chat and combined with the below, Game streaming
Game controller APIs
It's also known as RVU which has it's origin in a 2007 CEA-2014 proposal to the FCC. It's evolved from DLNA 1.0 and a UI which is a picture of the DVR menu to DLNA 1.5 and a HTML5 menu. Cable companies have to comply with the FCC mandate of June 2 2014 but the DLNA.org won't have compliance tests till September and HTML5 which is a major part of DLNA CVP2 will reach 5.0 candidate status late this year...probably September or October.
We have seen working versions of DLNA CVP2 being demoed on the PS3 and PS4 at CES. Satellite, DISH and Direct TV are now advertising RVU (Hopper) and Smart TVs without a STB or wires connected to the Satellite DVR (wireless home network). Samsung worked with Dish and Direct TV to provide RVU Smart TVs and just after the DLNA CVP2 standards were published in March they are being advertised but in advance of the DLNA.ORG compliance tests. Sony can do the same as they are part of the DLNA.ORG...so who knows........
The PS4 OS has to be secure and has to support power modes as well as AOAC low power network standby and Bluetooth 4.0 (LE). What's planned is enormous.
