upnp, smartlists & roku soundbridge
« on: January 05, 2008, 02:20:41 pm »

I use the upnp server with my Roku SoundBridge, but one area that never seems to work is smartlists. Everytime I try to browse my smartlists, I get the following error message on the Roku: "Failed to load browse data. Invalid results received".

All other areas of the upnp server seem to be working flawlessly, and I have had smartlists working in the past, but they now seem permanently broken.

I'm currently on 12.0.388.

Any help greatly appreciated :)

Did you try updating MC?  12.0.404 is current.

I should have seen that coming ;)

Just updated to 404, but the problem persists.

I need more info. My system has "Playlists", which includes both playlists and smartlists, works just fine. I use smartlists all the time (including right now).

Can you give a more step-by-step description of what you are doing and how it goes wrong?

Thanks,

Sure. My system has "Playlists" too, which contain both playlists and smartlists. Playlists work fine, smartlists don't.

When I try to access smartlists on the roku,  I get the "waiting for reply... (EXIT to cancel)" screen. Then nothing for a couple of minutes, followed by the "Failed to load browse data. Invalid results received" screen.

On the upnp server log, I get the following:

Code: [Select]
01/06/08 08:51:29 - Browse BrowseDirectChildren 0()
01/06/08 08:51:34 - Browse BrowseDirectChildren 4(Playlists)
01/06/08 08:51:36 - Browse BrowseDirectChildren 69(Playlists\Smartlists)

On a very odd occasion, the smartlists will actually work (maybe one time in twenty), so I'm guessing it is a timeout issue, but when it does work the reply is almost instant. I don't have a huge amount of smartlists, just the defaults plus a few. My network isn't clogged, and the roku+media centre combo works flawlessly otherwise.

Another thing to note is that when is DOES occasionally work, I can ALWAYS then play the chosen smartlist without a problem. The issue is ONLY with browsing smartlists to begin with.

I hope that helps. Thanks.

Can you try to narrow it down to one smartlist? Create a new playlist group, copy your smartlists to there, and start eliminating them (eliminating half at a time is the quickest way).
