Streaming / Firewall Issue
« on: June 11, 2009, 06:45:11 pm »

I've found that my AVG Firewall, when enabled, does not allow for UPnP Server communication between my PC and PS3. Simple question: for those of you who stream music to their PS3, or other UPnP clients, how did you make an exception for the UPnP Server to go out while your firewall is enabled?

I understand that AVG Firewall let's you add applications to its safe applications list, as exceptions. Mediacenter13.exe is already listed as a safe application in the firewall. Media Center 13 itself can access the internet. Is there another file to be added to safe applications list in order to allow the server to connect to the PS3?

If someone has already gone through this kind of setup it'd be very helpful if you could briefly outline how one should go about allowing the UPnP Server through a firewall? Thanks.

Probably this file (or similar):
C:\Program Files\J River\Media Center 13\Plugins\server_upnp
