UPnP / DLNA issue
#1
Hi,
I have an odd issue with a UPnP/DLNA support.

I'm able to load and browse most of the content in this source, but I'm unable to enter some of the folders.

For the folders that I'm unable to view, I see something like this in the debug log:

Code:
00:26:21 T:3037589504   DEBUG: CGUIMediaWindow::GetDirectory (upnp://4d696e69-444c-164e-9d41-001ec9fd793e/recent/)
00:26:21 T:3037589504   DEBUG:   ParentPath = [upnp://4d696e69-444c-164e-9d41-001ec9fd793e/]
00:26:21 T:3037589504   ERROR: GetDirectory - Error getting upnp://4d696e69-444c-164e-9d41-001ec9fd793e/recent/
00:26:21 T:3037589504   ERROR: CGUIMediaWindow::GetDirectory(upnp://4d696e69-444c-164e-9d41-001ec9fd793e/recent/) failed
00:26:21 T:3037589504   DEBUG: CGUIMediaWindow::GetDirectory (upnp://4d696e69-444c-164e-9d41-001ec9fd793e/)

Unfortunately, that's the only debug that's produced. I do use this DLNA source (a MiniDLNA instance) with a lot of other DLNA browsers and XBMC here isn't producing a lot of verbosity on what its exact issue is.


Any ideas on what the issue might be or where I should be looking for additional information?

You don't say what version of MiniDLNA you are running but maybe this helps:
Quote:This version too has a problem with permission problems in /var/cache/minidlna - it kept saving some files in the album art directory as root (possibly others) but requires user 'minidlna' to access them. I also seem to remember a write access problem to the files.db file.

Hi,
I specifically don't believe it represents an issue with MiniDLNA as I use a number of other DLNA clients that don't show any issues. At most I would suspect possibly some unexpected or missing-but-expected XML output or perhaps some entities that are not escaped.

I have same problem with browse some folders. Other clients work correctly.

Bug 
I used Wireshark to capture the miniDLNA response when XMBC requested folder, that cannot be opened.

Deleting .nfo files and rebuilding miniDLNA database temporarily fixed error
