Canīt get DLNA running...

(1/2) > >>

Al ex:
- Windows 7
- Firewall ESET Smart Security 4.0 - DEACTIVATED
- MC 14.0.155
- DLNA Controller, Server, Renderer ACTIVATED, using "GENERIC DLNA"-setting
- Using Western Digital TV LIVE via WiFi-connection. Connection is OK, I can establish a connection from the WDTV LIVE to my Laptop.

When I am trying to establish a DLNA connection from my Laptop to the WD TV LIVE-box, the box will not be shown in my "Playing Now" list. I have even tried to switch off the Firewall to find out, if it is a problem with the ports - no success.

I know that it works in general, as I already established a connection 2 weeks ago with MC v151

Please see the log file from DLNA - Options within MC14:

What shall I do? Thx for help :)

JimH:
Try powering the WD down and up again.

Windows firewall needs to allow ports from 52100 to 52199.

Did this - no success.

Firewall is already deactivated, ports for MC14 open, pls. see screenshot:

JimH:
ESET isn't Windows firewall is it?

Did you try restarting both sides?  Reboot Windows.

Try wired, not wireless, if you can.

Right, ESET is a 3rd party Firewall software ( http://www.eset.com/ ). Windows Firewall is and was DEACTIVATED.
Did restart both sides.
Tried cable (wired) connection.
No success!

BUT:
Beside my Laptop with MC v155, I also have a Netbook with MC v151:
There it worked! I could see WD TV LIVE under Playing now and could also play a song on my hifi, which is connected to the WD TV LIVE

I now updated my Netbook from v151 to v155 - didnt change any other setting at all.
Result: DLNA is not working anymore!  ?

Seems that this is a problem of v155 in my opinion. Is there anything else I can report to you in regard to logfiles, etc?
