So, I do have some questions: - Why are my mp4 files recognized as audio files? - Is minidlna expected t oshow a list of files in its DB somewhere? - How can I detect minidlna working correctly?
Kind regards Peter
I didn't have any success with the stock minidlna.service file, which I disabled. I'm using this one : ************************************************************* [Unit] Description=PostBoot Minidlna Requires=network.target After=network.target [Service] Type=forking ExecStart=/usr/bin/minidlnad -R User=minidlna [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target ************************************************************* According to comments I read somewhere, it's not considered safe ! Please note you'll have to create an unprivileged user that owns all files. As for VLC, UPnP browsing is just broken in 2.x. It seems this module is completely re-written in 3.x, not yet out. Regards.
