Hi

I've been using MythTV for years, currently on 0.24.1. I'm only now 
trying out uPNP with a WD TV Live unit.

I've been reading about it and have added the route to the Myth Backend 
machine as follows

route add -net 239.0.0.0/8 eth0

With wireshark running on the Backend I can see SSDP packets addressed 
to 239.255.255.250 from the WD TV unit. I don't see any traffic back the 
other way.

Netstat -nlp shows Mythbackend listening on udp 1900

udp        0      0 255.255.255.255:1900        
0.0.0.0:*                               31545/mythbackend
udp    29064      0 239.255.255.250:1900        
0.0.0.0:*                               31545/mythbackend

The firewall is open on UDP port 1900

SELinux is enabled on the Backend machine but I don't see any messages 
from it about rejected connections to port 1900 or such like.

But the MythBackend does not show up on the WD TV Videos, Media Server 
selection.

I've missed something - but what.

Any ideas

Thanks

Ken
