About
Stream What You Hear (SWYH) is a Windows application that allows you to stream the audio currently playing on your computer — literally “what you hear” — to UPnP/DLNA-compatible devices such as TVs, amplifiers, network receivers, game consoles, and more.
SWYH was created by Sébastien Warin, based in Lille, France. The first version of the project was developed in July 2012 and publicly released in October 2012.
You can find the original article introducing the project (in French), published on October 12, 2012, here:

Since June 2015, SWYH has been open-source, allowing anyone to understand how it works, diagnose issues, contribute fixes, and improve the application:
