John thanks for the tip on logging.

The logs were not good to show “something wrong”
I used THIS version (built here) fixes/0.27 [v0.27-229-g9f353cc-dirty]
with THIS tv before I dropped the DB. All worked so something configured or misconfigure must be the cause after I rebuilt the DB.

If anybody has uPnP working and can say
<for example>
Set DEFAULT storage
Set Video storage
behold upnp works

or whatever it would help me lots. 

Thanks
James
