Random disconnects from DLNA server / Renderer - How to troubleshoot? [Solved}
JimH:
Right click on the device under Playing Now, and choose DLNA Controller Options.

@JimH I didn't know anything about the broken render option either, but have looked at those settings and need to understand from the Wiki help pages what each one does before I start making a bunch of changes.
@jctcom I also wanted to note that I have two other Yamaha DLNA receivers in my household (a R-N803 and a WXA-50), but both of those are just 2-channel integrated units. I can see both of them from JRiver just as I can my Yamaha A6A, and took the time to play a large playlist to those today (about 5 hours for each).
No drop-offs whatsoever with those units everything played right through with no glitches. So something seems to be going on with the AVR units (as my prior Yamaha RX-A2080 did the same thing) that causes these dropouts. Maybe one of the options under the DLNA management will help with this. Thanks for pointing out this area.
JimH:
Make one change at a time.
larryincmh:
Before I saw @JimH's suggestion to make one change at a time I got on early this morning and went to the DLNA Controller Options section for my Yamaha A6A and changed the following:
Ignore Transport Events - Toggled ON
Ignore Get Postion Failure - Toggled ON
Disable Other Controller Detection - Toggled ON
Disable SetNext Support - LEFT OFF (online reports say toggling this on disables gapless playback)
I can report that after a half a dozen albums played through today there have been NO disconnects.
I can also report no ill effect on the sound quality I am hearing.
Not sure what changes the toggles actually do, but for now it seems to be playing just fine with no issues. More to report later.
jctcom:
That's great.
I actually have done the same thing and so far no disconnects. But I have not played that many songs with it yet.
Also see the post I made here: https://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php/topic,138390.0.html
If I can get that fixed I should be able to play Multi-Channel albums gapless I think.
Carl.
