[mythtv] Yamaha DLNA compatibility

[Rune Petersen]

Hi,

I did some DLNA work some time ago, I may be able to help.

Can you provide a Ethernet capture of the interaction between the 2 devices?

It has DLNA capability (specifically bought to interact with my mythtv mediacenter), and is able to browse my music collection on the mythbox.  However, it only seems to play the first 2’36” of whichever song I select, before moving on to the next song in the playlist.  My Android client plays fine.

Firstly, there is no Keep-Alive header in the request (which there is with the Android renderer), and secondly, the request appears to have a range.  Is this expected?  Also, it looks like the HTTP connection is timing out — as though the hifi stops listening?
