uPnP server - empty media list, MacOSX
#1
OSX Version 10.6.7
upnp servers: MacMini Server (late 2010) & MacBookPro 15'' (may 2010)
upnp clients: MacBookPro (as above), Philips PFL8065, MacMini Server using XBMC accessing self.
"NOTICE: Starting XBMC, Platform: Mac OS X (10.7.0 x86_64). Built on Mar 9 2011 (Git:e9e9099)" XBMC 10.1 (but it didn't work on 9.x, 10.0 either)
Install Method dmg
Confluence

When accessing upnp server on MacMini or MacBook Pro media directory consists of two directories - Music & Video. Video is just empty. Music contains some standard directories not existing on my server like Top 100, Artist, Album, etc. Those standard directories are also empty.

There are of course media on the servers, playable without any problems directly using XBMC.

Firewall is OFF.

Accessing XBMC uPnP server using the same XBMC instance on the same computer also doesn't work.

The uPnP server is visible on the network, all clients are seeing it. It just does not serve any media.

Having similar problems. Tried from every client imaginable... might try xbmc on a different device (linux), some threads seem to suggest backing down to v9 of xbmc on the server side...

I am also having this problem,.
I am trying to setup my osx lion imac as a UPNP server as SMB does not work with lion.
I am using ATV 2 with XBMC.
When i go to add a source i can see the XBMC media server under UPNP, but there is nothing in there.
I have added my media folders to XBMC on the imac

Hey guys,
I'm experiencing the same problem as you.
I can access my media folders from XBMC on my computer but when I hook up my Philips TV - I've tried both via ethernetcable and WIFI - I can only see two folders, Videos and Music. And they are both empty.

So what's wrong? There's gotta be someone on this forum that can help us?

Please!!!
