Same problems with JRiver 15 (15.012 on both server and laptop).

Lets see if I can get this straight:
1) You both have a server PC running MC with all 3 DLNA boxes checked.
2) The media files are NOT on the PC, they are on a network share?
3) You are using a laptop w/ MC as a controller to play music on the server PC?

Yes, specifically a Windows Home Server.

No, they are on the PC (Server) but with network paths in the JRiver database

I have a laptop w/ MC as a controller of an UPNP renderer (LINN DS).

Ok, the MC PC is the server. Why are you using network paths to the files?
Is the LINN renderer on yet another PC or the same PC as either the server or the controller?

I use network paths to have independant file paths. I have already tried with more traditional file paths. Same problem.
Linn DS is an high-end piece of hardware playing audiophile music using DLNA standard to communicate. The renderer is just connected to the network waiting for orders from a DLNA controller.
There other DLNA controller working with LINN DS (new asset control from dbpoweramp, Nokia N80 DLNA control software, Iphone application Plugplayer, and others).

Are the other two DLNA check boxes ticked?
This is working for other people using the Linn DS.
I'm still suspicious that the network paths are causing a problem.
I assume you've seen this thread on the Linn forum:
