UMS 6.0.0-a1 doesn't detect PS3 as media renderer

[jamesb]

Hi everyone.

I've just installed UMS on my desktop and it doesn't seem my PS3 as media renderer. Serviio is working fine on the other hand. Can't seem to find any rules on windows firewall preventing any inbound or outbound traffic from UMS. Help?

As always, to get any help, post debug files as described in red above.

Nadahar, apologies for missing that.

Attaching the file. In the meantime, UMS has detected my Samsung TV as a media renderer, but I'm unable to see it as a DLNA source on my TV.

Try to disable the firewall. The Windows firewall is by default in "default block" mode, that means you don't need rules to block, you need rules to allow. If UMS can find your TV but your TV can't find UMS, it sounds very much like a firewall problem. I haven't looked in the debug files, try to disable the firewall first.

Hi Nadahar.

I didn't disabled the firewall but added two new rules (fkor inbound and outbound) allowing all traffic from UMS. Although UMS recognizes the media renderer, it's still not showing on the other other end, Thanks.

Try to disable the firewall to see if that solves the problem. I'm not saying you should keep it disabled, but you have to try it so we can eliminate issues caused by the firewall. If you're behind a router with NAT, there's no need to run a local firewall on your computer as your router functions as a firewall. Your IP address (10.10.10.5) from the log indicates that you are behind such a router and NAT, since 10.10.10.5 is in the private IPv4 address spaces. That means you can permanently disable the firewall unless you have untrusted devices on your local network.
