UMS cant recognize PS4
I have been using UMS for a very long time the same way as always, my ps4 is connected using a LAN cable to my router and every time i activated the media player on it UMS it recognized it without any problems.
for a few days now UMS no longer recognizes my ps4, and i haven't changed any of the settings on my ps4 nor on UMS. It is all connected as it always has been.
would love for some help to get it working again.
btw i must say i know nothing about networking and i have tried uninstalled UMS and re-install UMS without any luck.

Re: UMS cant recognize PS4
Try to use Force IP of the Server and set your PC's IP address. It seems sometimes it doesn't update when your PC changes IP.
Re: UMS cant recognize PS4
There are no search requests from PS4 in the log. Can you check the IP address on PS4? It should be in the same subnet as UMS (10.0.0.x).
Re: UMS cant recognize PS4
You can't use the same IP on multiple devices - if you do, you will have broken your network so that neither have network.
Re: UMS cant recognize PS4
I'm sorry, but I can't explain IP networking here. You can find tons of descriptions all around the internet. It isn't specific to UMS or UPnP.
Most people use a router with DHCP, which will assign IP addresses automatically to all devices on the local network. In that case, all you need to do is to set everything to "automatic". If you don't have DHCP available and configured, you'll need to assign addresses manually. They must be assigned so that they can route to the internet, and the most common way is to use one of the "private" IP ranges. You can then pick any IP address you want for any device, as long as they are within the same subnet as specified by the subnet mask.
What the address is doesn't matter as long as it's valid. It's like with street addresses, it doesn't matter what the address is as long as it uniquely identifies a house in a way that is understood by the postal service.
