Title: DLNA Server question
Post by: icehouse10 on November 15, 2015, 10:50:39 am
I use MC 18 and am able to have my movies go out on the DLNA server as original files to my WD player.  I don't have to do a specified output format.  I am trying MC 21 and when I change it to Mode:original under the video settings for DLNA it will think about it for a second then go back to the menu screen on my WD player.  Any reason why this is?  If a newer version can't do what my old one will  I will stick with trusty 18.  Thanks.

I thought I would download MC 20 and I was able to stream the original file video file.  Not sure why I can't do it with MC 21?  Any ideas.

The settings are the same on all 3 versions.  Just MC 21 won't work.

Right click on the bar with the fields that show up when a list of files are beings displayed in MC (i.e. artist, album, etc).
Enable the compression field and report the contents.

In your DLNA server settings, under the Advanced section, what options are checked?
