[mythtv-users] UPNP Media Server No Longer Working

[Steve Boyer]

I tried today and am not able to get the MythTV UPNP Media Server
working. My setup:

server with tuner card --physical--> router --wifi--> other devices

This setup was working last week. I am running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS on it
still. I think I did a apt-get upgrade since then and the server is
now no longer working. I did another apt-get upgrade to get the newest
version of MythTV, hoping that this was just a bug and was fixed, but
it is still not working. I thought it was originally a problem with
the PS3. I've restarted it and the server, restarted the modem, and
have completely ruled out it being a network issue. I've tried
connecting to it through the blu-ray player in our room, the PS3,
through VLC, as well as the UPnPlay Android App. In all cases, they
see the server, but I cannot actually access or list any recordings. I
have not made any change to the MythTV configuration for months.

Output from VLC client trying to access:
[0x7f85f869ad28] upnp services discovery error: UPNP_E_BAD_RESPONSE
when trying the send() action with URL:
http://192.168.1.15:6544/CDS_Controlsc
[0x7f85f869ad28] upnp services discovery error: No response from browse() action

I've started a second media server on the same physical box
(mediatomb), and have been able to connect to it through my devices
and play fine.
