I have some problems with DLNA after upgrade to v10.9.7.
Even if it seemed DLNA had it's own life, before upgrade i used v10.8.12 and DLNA was working.. well.. up to 80% of the time i wanted to use streaming to TV.
I have the Jellyfin software set up on a windows 11 pro and i have until now used my Samsung to 'forward' the streaming to my LG TV.
I'm primarly using Jellyfin for own purpose at home.
To the problems then..
After upgrading i was 'locked out' both from browser and later (still) from Jellyfin app on my Samsung.
After numerous frustrating attempts i finally gave up and uninstalled everything to start clean. But i noticed folders on C:\program\* was packed with files which in my mind didn't match with a clean new installation to a previous version, but i installed v10.8.12 anyway and it only got messier. Long story short, using safe mode to force remove all folders, and everything good so far.. in my mind anyway.
So.. now i could install the latest v10.9.7 and browser opened up like a welloiled machine to make all necessary setting + scanning harddrives to populate Jellyfin, all good so far.
But.. Jellyfin acts.. 'weird'.. most of the things work, but i cannot connect DLNA anymore... n o t a c h a n c e.....
And.. the Jellyfin app in my Samsung won't log in to the ip address on the computer i have Jellyfin on..
It 'feels'.. as if the server is not present.. and yes, i have searched and searched and searched some more on that asumed server i have..
I have the tray icon, and it starts automatically, and my browser won't work if i stop Jellyfin through the tray..
And whats with the server..? I came across a video on youtube explaining how to set server to start immediately.. without delay..
So i Run > services.msc.. to find.. nothing.. so i thought i missed something when installing, so i installed same software again..
But.. guess what.. there was nothing implicating that a server option could be made while installing, not like in the older versions.
I have also all kinds of ip addresses accepted in my Avast firewall.. (localhost/* , 0.0.0.0 , 127.0.0.1/* , 192.168.x.xxx/* ...)... and even God Himself/*.. but it still won't work to log in on the Jellyfin phone app, nor activating DLNA for streaming..
And now i've run out of ideas...
