[mythtv-users] uPnP Music in 0.27.3 - cannot read file

[Ludvik Tesar]

Hi John,

maybe you could try whether the upnp xml from mythbackend is correct (with the script attached). I think right parameters to get list of all the music could be something like this, if you called it from the same machine where you have backend or replace localhost with the corect hostname:

fetch-mythtv-upnp.sh localhost Music/0

Locate <res/> tags, you will find URLs like : http://host:6543/Content/GetMusic?Id=...
Then you can test whether these URLs work in browser, and if yes, than mythbackend produced right UPnP xml.
