SOLVED RAIDiator 4.1.10: ReadyDLNA 1.0.25 fails to start

Just a quick update for all of you out there with strange ReadyDLNA issues. I use the DLNA service with 3 clients (2 Samsung SMART TV and a Raspberry Pi) and also use the Home Media Streaming Server with a Snazi 1350 HD. The DLNA service had become unusable and no amount of restart, reboot or reinstall of OS solved the issues. My X6 NAS device started life as an OEM from Snazi and I had never rooted it. Over Christmas I bit the bullet and decided to backup all data and reinstall completely. Surprisingly I was just able to flash the CF with RAIDiator 4.1.10 (the forum suggested I would need to start with an OEM firmware but this was not the case), and wipe the partition table of each of the 4 drives. 36 hours to replace the 2TB of data and to absolute delight all problems completely solved :D

Before reinstalling I did get root access and noticed 2 VERY large log files in /var/log; one was for the DLNA client that I had enabled but the other (300MB :shock:) was for something like p2pLeaf. Looks like this is for remote access or something but I have NEVER enabled such a utility so don't understand why it was continuously logging.

Anyway, so far so good. It now works reliably from all sources and I have not even had to ask it to rescan once yet :)
