DLNA profiles - Suhsi - 2024-12-27

Hi, with every new version of the DLNA plugin it stops working until i change the profiles for Samsung manually. Will there be a fix or a better solution for DLNA profiles in the future? Thx,Suhsi


RE: DLNA profiles - TheDreadPirate - 2024-12-27

Are you modifying the existing DLNA profiles and not renaming them?


RE: DLNA profiles - crobibero - 2024-12-28

Is there an existing report that your DLNA profile should be updated?


RE: DLNA profiles - Suhsi - 2024-12-30

Hi, every new plugin version creates a new folder with default profiles. Im modifying them like descriped here: https://forum.jellyfin.org/t-solved-getting-dlna-to-work-on-samsung-8-series-tv. Thx for your help!

Ah. I was assuming they were getting over written, but you are right. It does make new folders for each plugin release.

Can you submit a ticket here and request that each release somehow pull-in custom profiles or have an external profile location?

Ok thx, I have opened a ticket: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-plugin-dlna/issues/119

Thats the solution from the github ticket: "move your custom profiles to the custom folder. that location should be posted to your logs when JF server starts up"
in my case i moved the "modified.xml" from the system profile to the user profile:
- user profile directory "/var/lib/jellyfin/plugins/configurations/dlna/user"
- system profile directory "/var/lib/jellyfin/plugins/DLNA_6.0.0.0/profiles"

Thanks for following up! I had no idea about the custom profile folder.
