Hello,
i new here and new with network media sharing with DLNA and Media Center 17. I want to add zone and link my zone with my current renderer (Toshiba Bluray Player), a also have a PS3, but my Media Center didn't see them, and i don't see where to link it with my New zone. I also use My River to control my media center, so my DLNA seem to work.
Anybody have a suggestion ?
Thank in advance

The PS3 is a DLNA player, not a DLNA renderer. This means you can pull content from the PS3 using it's UI (crossbar) but you can't push content to it.
Most (but not all) Bluray players are the same, I'm not sure about your Toshiba. You can look it up by model number at http://dlna.org. Devices that are labeled DMR are pushable renderers that will show up as zones in MC. Devices that are labeled DMP will only pull content. Some of the Sony BD players are DMR.
