DLNA not working with Samsung TV
Hi, I just got a NV+ 4210
I enabled the DLNA service and I can connect with my windows media player on my lap top to the ReadyNAS.
I have a samsung tv with DNLA, I have used my old NAS, a synology disk station to stream to the tv.... worked fine.
But now the tv cant find the ReadyNAS... It can find my laptop though
Any good suggestion ???

- devilsrearAspirantHi I had this problem when I got my 1st readynas duo v1.
The issue was not the nas but my router. I simply purchased a netgear 5 port gigabit switch and plugged the switch between my router and my devices.
The discovery of the NAS was hit and miss - it would show up all the time on the pc but only occassionaly on the ps3. At the time I purchased this solely to stream vids via a PS3 to my tv.
Over the years I've expanded my network - everything is connected via netgear switches (1x5 & 2x8). One of them plug into the router for internet access.
I have NO issues picking up the readynas dlna server and services on all my devices - TV (Panansonic GT30 - inbuilt DLNA client), PC's wired & Wireless, PS3 wired via homeplug (connected to a switch at the other end), Android tablets & phone.
The ONLY issues I've had is with media format playback.
I did a post on how to stream MKV files wirelessly without re-encoding to an android device. - b00st3dAspirant

Since READYNAS update connection between ReadyNas and the Samsung Tv breaks down.
I had a similar issue with my connection dropping after 30 seconds or so after a RAIDiator update. I ended up downgrading 1 revision of ReadyDLNA and that resolved my issue.
