ReadyDLNA iOS app
Anyone tried the new ReadyDLNA iOS app for remote DLNA? Looks interesting but I haven't had a chance to give it a whirl.

Are there any updates regarding the ReadyDLNA app connecting issue?
I also cannot get it to connect. My NAS is listed on the Media tab. When I select it, the app never advances beyond 'Connecting....'. However, the ReadyDLNA app lets me browse, manipulate and download files and folders (including the media files/folders) using the ‘Remote Files’ tab. I'm running the latest version available through the app store (1.1)
ReadyDNLA appears to be properly installed and configured on my ReadyNAS Pro. The Windows Media Player, Xbox 360, MediaConnect IOS app and 8Player IOS app can all see and stream content from my NAS
Also on a side note, NetGear offers three IOS apps; ReadyShare Cloud, ReadyNAS Remote and ReadyDNLA.
All three appear to be identical in functionally (with the only exception being the additional ‘Media’ tab in the ReadyDNLA app). They all connect to and function with my ReadyNAS Pro. What’s the story with these; why three separate apps? Are there plans to merge them into one? At least for me, the limited information regarding them in the Apple App store and the apparent identical functionality has created come confusion.
