ReadyNAS 104 DLNA Service Not Working.

I have a couple of ReadyNAS 104 that I am re-purposing, I have completely restored to default and then created a share on both boxes and enabled DLNA service, but I cannot see the two storage options from any of the 6 TV's that we have that are attached to the network, I can see an older ReadyNAS NV+ but not these two units, I have filled both with Movies and Films of various types and still nothing.

 

Firmware 6.4.2, 1Gb Backbone.

 

Any help would be much appreciated...

    So it seems that the NAS is not finding any of your media. Something to try is to load just a few pictures or audio files initially, if you have a 'media' share by default use that. Then rescan from the UI and again check the status.

    You enabled both the service (system->settings) and enabled DLNA for the shares themselves?

      Under Shares I have allowed 'Anonymous and Any Host'

       

      And under Network Access I have enabled DLNA and set to All for media type.

        Did you try rescanning? (system->services)
