Sony Bravia TV can't see Serviio

Hi guys, not quite sure what's happened as things were working previously.

I have set up in my Netgear router for the correct ports to be open (TCP port 8895 and UDP 1900). I wasn't sure whether to put it as Inbound or Outbound on my Firewall Rules, so added them both to both Inbound and Outbound and used the LAN IP of the Inbound as the computer's IP where Serviio is installed.

Serviio can see my TV and it has a green dot (Sony Bravia TV (2011)). However, in my TV's settings, I've tried refreshing the server list, deleting it etc and it's just not finding anything.

I've given a static IP address to my TV.

Is there anything I'm missing out? Do I need to create a Firewall Rule for the TV in my router at all?

Thanks a lot guys - driving me nuts!

edit: My Sony Bravia can connect to the internet fine.

edit edit: I know a few people ask to see the ipconfig. I'm not sure if this will help or not:

So
- 192.168.0.1 is the router IP address.
- 192.168.0.2(Preferred) is the PC(serviio) IP address.

What is the fixed, Sony IP address ?

Hi, it's 192.168.0.11

I have a feeling it could be my PC causing the issue though as when trying to access my network settings in windows 7 it freezes and doesn't seem to be playing ball.

I've reinstalled network drivers and run a virus and malware scan but can't seem to fix it right now.
