RN102 6.8.1 DLNA issues
Hello, I have lately been having problems with the DLNA. I use the RN to store all my videos and watch them through my Samsung TV USING DLNA. I think all started after upgrading to 6.8.1. My setup is the same for years and I notished the issue after the upgrade. Now when I’m watching a video it will stop and the TV will through an error message “check your network connection” rendering impossible to watch videos. I tried restarting my router but with no lack. I also tried viewing a video from my mobile device and it will freeze. I will try to upgrade to the latest fw and check if the problem persists. Can you point the location for logs related to DLNA? There might be something there regarding the disconnects. Thx in advance1.7KViews0likes5CommentsHow/where does Netgear Genie gather media attributes?
When I am using the Netgear Genie as a DLNA server, all of my media (music, pictures, videos) have Unknown album, Unknown artist, etc. In Windows, when I view the Media properties, I can see values there. So, my question was where does the Netgear genie pull those values? Thanks!3.9KViews0likes3CommentsAnti-Virus Update Breaks Tivo DLNA Server
I was able to view pictures from my NAS through my Tivo last night, but this morning could not. The only thing that had changed in those few hours was an update to the virus definitions. When I turn real-time anti-virus protection off, I am able to view photos through the Tivo. I suspect something in the anti-virus update broke the Tivo server function. I can't post a bug report because my unit is more than 90 days old. Any help would be appreciated.Solved2.7KViews0likes2CommentsReadyShare DLNA Server Disconnects during music streaming
Hi, I have connected a Seagate Backup 2T USB drive to Netgear CableModem router (C3000) to serve as media server. On the player side, I connected a Marantz NA8005 network music player to the router wired via ethernet. The player is able to see "readyshare DLNA: C3000" server initially, and I can browse the folders, and play music. However, after 5-10 minutes, it will stop with a message "server disconnected". At this point, I am also not able to browse the media folder from my PC. The only way to recover is to restart the router. It will then function properly for 5-10 minutes before server get disconnect again. Any suggestions on what I need to do? -ed4.5KViews0likes6CommentsReadyNAS 102 update 6.5.1 and 6.5.2 DLNA not showing all files on devices.
ReadyNAS 102 update 6.5.1 and 6.5.2 DLNA not showing all files on devices. After updating from 6.5.0 I am now missing folders and files, they won't show up. missing 27 from one folder but will show some new folders that have been added, it cuts off part way into the letter W and no new files showing up in another folder. I have had no issues until updating the firmware. I have rebooted, rescanned, shutdown. I have removed the server from all 3 SONY blu-ray players and shut them down and started back up adding the server. What else should I try? is there some limit to the number of folders or files I can place in one folder? Why would it show newly added folders but not the last 27 that have always been there?4.2KViews0likes8CommentsReadyNAS 104 DLNA Service Not Working.

Developer request: SubSonic 6.0 package for ReadyNAS OS 6.0
Dear ReadyNAS developers, First of all many thanks for contributing to the Netgear ReadyNAS community! I have been using the Subsonic 4.9 package (made by Super_poussin) for the ReadyNAS OS 6.0 with pleasure but would very much like to upgrade to the new version 6.0 Would it be possible for anyone of you to make a new package of SubSonic 6.0, which I can install on my RN102 (ARM) box? I would very much appreciate it. Sincerly yours, Fremske link to SubSonic 6 repo: http://www.subsonic.org/pages/download.jspSolvedRequest: Make MinimServer ReadyNAS 6.0 ARM compatible
Dear Readynas Community, I would very much like to use MinimServer as my default uPnP AV streamer on my RN102 box. However looking at their download page: Link: http://minimserver.com/downloads/# it seems they only have a ReadyNAS ARM package available for the older platform. They quote: Note: You can install MinimServer on the ReadyNAS NV+ v2, Duo v2, Ultra, Pro and NVX. There isn't currently an installation package for the current ReadyNAS series (models 102, 104, 312, 314, 316, 516 and 716). Would someone like to take a look into this and try to come up with a package which is compatiable with the new ReadyNAS OS6 platform? Any help would be appreciated! Sincerly yours, Fremske :DLNA problems
Hello, I have the ReadyNAS 104 and have problems with DLNA. With video files of about 13GB and higher in scenes with a high bitrate the picture freezes for a few seconds. I use a Philips TV that is connected by by RJ45. If I put this video on a USB it works perfectly The speed of the network is to 1Gb and works properly when copying files via SMB or NFS. If I mount an SMB unit on the PC accessing the NAS and minidlna on the PC, it works well. I tried it with ReadyDLNA, with Nerosharehome and the same. Comment that both the NAS and the PC are on the same switch. I tried to change the switch on the other but the same, I have lowered the speed of NIC to "100 / full" and "100 / half" and occurs the same. I have 2 days testing and my conclusion is that the NAS has some kind of problem with these files, anyone else have this problem? I feel badly written, if not by the translator could not expose my problem. Thank you,3.3KViews0likes3Comments
