DLNA for FreeBSD?

Having read something about minidlna I've found:
MiniDLNA is a simple, lightweight alternative to MediaTomb, but has fewer features.
which begs the question: is MediaTomb available for FreeBSD?'

A quick Google search or a search on Freshports probably would have told you the answer to that: net/mediatomb.

I seem to remember using it a few years ago to stream to a PS3 and got on alright with it once I'd worked out my way round the web interface.

Whether it's actually worth installing the "full" MediaTomb rather than MiniDLNA is a question I don't know the answer to though.
 
Update for the topic:
on FreeBSD 12.0-RELEASE-p10
net/minidlna has problems with discovery in several seconds after service has started wich is critical for dlna server, nowadays minidlna is called ReadyMedia
net/mediatomb works perfectly but no longer supported, it's place took Gerbera (not in ports yet)
