Media Server restart
« on: May 02, 2019, 02:28:22 am »

Hi All, Is it just me or do you have to restart media server (latest MC 25 build ver 25.33) every time you import new video files.
I seem to have to restart the server to get the DLNA clients to see the new TV shows. It would be better if we could have a restart server button somewhere (like on the tool bar) to make this easier / more memorable.

Do you notice this a being a change from previous versions?
DLNA clients generally don't update their browse tree upon content change in the library (since it's not a dynamic process).

Hi Bob, no this is not new, AFAIK it has been this way forever. I don't think it is a client thing though as if I restart the client the new items don't show up. The only way seems to restart the server.

I think we've got a fix for this.
When the next build comes out, give it a try.

Will do, thanks for the fast turn around.
