Hello everyone.
I upgraded to 18rc1 from 17.6 a couple of days ago and all things upgraded pretty smoothly. However, I yesterday realised I could not connect to my dlna server at all. This is what comes up as an error in the log
which simply says it could not connect to my dlna server and nothing more.
Since I have the dlna server as a source for video files, I tried removing and readding it. Then I came accross this
Notice that there is no option for upnp/dlna devices at all! Then I selected add network location > upnp server > and hit browse. Then kodi stopped here
and nothing happened. At the same time, the log was saying
Is anyone experiencing a similar issue? If not, then I am obviously missing a library that would make that upnp connection happen. If yes, please tell me and I will open a proper issue report on kodi's github to have it seen by more people and possibly getting a fix.
Debian testing x64 and kodi 18rc1 on one end (dlna/upnp client), debian unstable x32 and minidlna 1.2.1 on the other end (dlna/upnp server).
The dlna server is visible and working flawlessly on my rpi zero with libreelec 8.2.5 and kodi 17.6.
Plus, when adding a dlna/upnp server as source, my smart tv's unused dlna server also shows up on the kodi 17.6 but not on kodi 18rc1.
