Hi,

DLNA player and Subsonic are on the same LAN.

i can't read music with a dlna player (i tried with 2 differents players that work with Windows 10 Media Streaming).

the player browse the files correctly but when you try to play a song, it iterates over all songs without producing music.

detail setup, logs etc here :https://drive.google.com/file/d/1F3SqHtl0P4kdx0Bxor2Q-2NnbBROn367/view?usp=sharing

It looks like a bug.

Thanks 4 help.

PS :
i'll try to increase the log verbosity (found the war, i'll take a look at).

Logs are here : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1i1mXpFkBC0hLwxKhjk_SlbUJOWS7rYQL/view?usp=sharing

it seems that there is a problem with memory allocation

java.lang.NullPointerException
at net.sourceforge.subsonic.controller.StreamController.handleRequest(StreamController.java:80)
at net.sourceforge.subsonic.controller.StreamController.handleRequest(StreamController.java:66)

i'll re-try with a tail on the log file

ok, problem is here (net.sourceforge.subsonic.controller.StreamController)

Player player = this.playerService.getPlayer(request, response, false, true);
User user = this.securityService.getUserByName(player.getUsername());
try
{
if (!user.isStreamRole())
{
response.sendError(403, "Streaming is forbidden for user " + user.getUsername());
return null;
}

NullPointerException.
user object seems not allocated.

It works with subsonic android app.

it seems like you need to authenticate, and that dlna player not designed specifically with this in mind will not work properly ?

I had the same issue and found the answer:

login as admin, goto USERS

goto GUEST, set it to be able to play files, and give it access to your folders

also you can goto players, and look under the guest user, if you see that the last time guest was on was when you tried your DLNA/UPnP client, then its surely using guest access

i set it and it worked for me
