media players not showing recent files

I have 5 media players around the house all with wired connection, they have had no problem streaming video from Nas for the last 2 years, but in the last couple of weeks i cant see any recent files added to the Nas with any of the players. I have no problem viewing the files with my computer? please help.

    Go into the web ui, and navigate to system->settings->services.  Click on the ReadyDLNA service, and you will see a rescan button.

    Are you using ReadyDLNA or Plex?

     

    If ReadyDLNA, did you try doing a manual rescan?
