DLNA on XBox One fails to go to the next video when the previous one ends.

I have an external hard drive connected to the router and I share its contents (most videos and photos) via DLNA. I use XBox One as the client, specifically its Media Player application. I have 10 video files (about 30 minutes to an 1 hour each) in a folder. I play and watch the first one. Once it finishes playing, XBox tries to go to the next file in the folder. Unfortunately, it throws up an error, stating that it can't access the server.
However, if I then close out and go to the root of the DLNA server and then go back to my folder, I can play the next video fine.
What can I do to make the DLNA be able to play the next file?

James,
Turning DLNA off and then back on ended up fixing the problem. I never tried the solution you mentioned.

Hi frizzo,
If you connect the drive directly to the Xbox, will you be able to play the files continuously or getting the same error?
