Choosing a DLNA server while in MC17 locally
« on: November 03, 2011, 08:21:01 pm »

I must admit that as I get older, things are a lot harder to understand.  I have created a pair of DLNA servers with different characteristics.  One is called "Integra Streaming" and the other is "Verizon Streaming."  I would like to render the files at the PC that I am on (which contains my media files) on my Integra AVR and use a different version of the DLNA server when streaming media to my phone.  The Integra version of a DLNA server does no conversion of files since I wish to play at full bitrate and without an MP3 encoding scheme.  Obviously, I don't want to do the same on my phone.  I would like to know how, when I am working in MC17 locally, do I choose the Integra DLNA mode versus the Verizon DLNA mode (I seem to default for some reason to the Verizon mode).  Perhaps my question does not make sense if I am missing the big picture.  I hope that someone can interpret my question.

When you connect to MC with a DLNA renderer or DLNA player to PULL content, the server you select determines which settings are used.

When you PUSH music from MC to a pushable renderer (DMR) the first server in the list of servers is the one whose settings are used.

Thanks for your reply.  I thought this was the issue.  OK, so how do I change the order of the servers?

Delete and re-add the servers. IIRC the last one created shows up first.
