DLNA only works for first few minutes after boot

Post by sshaikh »

I mainly use MMW's DLNA server for wifi syncing to my MMA device.

Previously this worked flawlessly. However more recently (in the last 2-3 months) I'm having some serious connection issues.

At times MMW just isn't visible on the network over DLNA. This isn't from just MMA, but from everywhere. A reboot of the PC running MMW makes it visible for a few minutes (in which I can successfully sync etc), but after a while it will go missing again.

Any ideas?

As an aside, is there any reason at all we can't add server names or even addresses manually? I feel that a lot of this pain would just go away if we didn't insist on being so clever about it ;)

Also possible a connected issue - I am unable to add or remove entries from the Media Server device list.

Then I suggest with starting with capturing a debug log (step 4b) from start where it still works till it no longer works: http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewto ... ?f=20&t=69 Send the log to support so the developers can see where to go from there.

PS. Do you have any Virtual Network/VPN software on your machine?
