NV+ v2 ReadyDLNA Folder Refresh - not seeing new/moved files

I have an issue in my media share with ReadyDLNA enabled. New &/or moved .MP4 files on my ReadyNAS NV+ v2 do not show the new files/folders automatically. I need to either disable ReadyDLNA service or reboot the NAS to see the new files/folders.

My previous ReadyNAS NV+ v1 had an option for regular scan/refresh from memory, I don't see any configurable ReadyDLNA settings in the v2 with the latest (or earlier) firmware image.

Is anyone able to share tips or tricks on how/where to configure the ReadyNAS NV+ v2 to scan for new/changed content automatically?

  • Similar problem, but with my ReadyNas the DLNA "button" doesn't work so I cannot even force a rescan. Using Chrome. Any thoughts?

    To confirm, other "buttons" in setting do work and prior to this firmware revision I had no problems although the autoscan didn't work.

    This just started happening with me too! The ReadyDLNA button does nothing when you click it. All the other buttons on that screen work OK. I've tried it with Chrome and IE -- same behavior.

    I was able to force a rescan using the command line procedure detailed in this post:

    viewtopic.php?f=76&t=59408&start=15

    And then it worked OK. But I do wish it worked all the time. With my system, every now and then it just stops scanning when new files show up. It'll work for a week, or maybe even a month, and then just stop, and I have to rescan.
