FreeNAS and DLNA problem
Posted: Thu Jun 12, 2014 11:26 amHi,
Having a go at using Subsonic as a media server using the Plugin in FreeNAS 9.2. All installed and started fine.
I can access the web page http://myNAS:4040/ and have been able to map my media so it is visible within the application. So all good so far.
However, I want to have DLNA enabled as I want to stream my music using Subsonic to my Marantz hifi and Sony tele using controller on Nexus phone. So... I can see that the DLNA option is enabled in the Settings > DLNA tab. and get this in the logs:
[2014-06-12 10:40:10,096] INFO UPnPService - Disabling UPnP/DLNA media server
[2014-06-12 11:48:40,508] INFO UPnPService - Enabling UPnP/DLNA media server
however it is not being presented as an option in Media Devices on the network "panel" of my Windows 7 machine or as an option on my Nexus.
I am using a BT Homehub and uPNP is enabled on that and my existing devices all present themselves on the network correctly. E.g. I have already tested the following other Media Players:
Synology ds212j
Plex, MiniDLNA, Serviio (all configured as plugin in jail in FreeNAS)
Wondering what I am missing here with Subsonic. Help please!? I have read about the port forwarding in my Router - but assume this is for internet access which I dont want to do at this time.
Sorry if missed something obvious but did do a search of forum first
Cheers,
