Readynas Duo ReadyDLNA Folder Issue
My rubbish ReadyNAS duo is not doing what it’s supposed to do yet again! Can someone please tell me why my Netgear Readynas Duo's DLNA/UPNP function is not working properly? I have it all setup ...

Netgear's DLNA is flakey, that's the long and short of it.
I've installed Twonky Server, works great. $20, which I'm not happy about, but seeing as this has been an issue for quite some time with no end in sight, it was either Twonky or return the unit. To tell you the truth, I was on the fence with that one. Came close to returning it, I was so unhappy with it.
Wait until you try and write 200,000 small files to it, watch what happens. My backups take 24 hours for 40G.
