Serviio

It appears that the UPNP urn:upnp-org:serviceId:ContentDirectory:Search works the same like the Browse function. The Search function is supposed to traverse the ContentDirectory structure, including ALL child nodes.

When I do a Search with parameters:
ContainerID=0
SearchCriteria=(upnp:class = "object.container.person.musicArtist") and (@refID exists false)
Filter=*
What is returned is not a list of ALL the Artists, it returns the top level (DirectChildren only) of ContainerID=0 ie.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?><DIDL-Lite xmlns="urn:schemas-upnp-org:metadata-1-0/DIDL-Lite/" xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/" xmlns:dlna="urn:schemas-dlna-org:metadata-1-0/" xmlns:upnp="urn:schemas-upnp-org:metadata-1-0/upnp/"><container childCount="15" id="A" parentID="0" restricted="1" searchable="0"><dc:title>Audio</dc:title><upnp:class>object.container</upnp:class></container><container childCount="7" id="I" parentID="0" restricted="1" searchable="0"><dc:title>Image</dc:title><upnp:class>object.container</upnp:class></container><container childCount="13" id="V" parentID="0" restricted="1" searchable="0"><dc:title>Video</dc:title><upnp:class>object.container</upnp:class></container></DIDL-Lite>

This is what Browse would do with BrowseFlag=BrowseDirectChildren and wrong for the Search function.

Where do I log a bug report?

No, search is not implemented.

any plans to implement it?

Not currently

Hello
I have been using Serviio for about 1 year and I am very satisfied. I think it's one of the best media servers. But one single (for me quite important) function is missing here - UPnP search .

Is there any possibility that UPnP serach would be implemented? Then I would be happy to buy the PRO version .

Unfortunately, this is one of the things I look for in "competing" media servers, but none is as good as Serviio....

Thank you

It would be great if UPNP search could be implemented.
When using applications like HEOS, Serviio is otherwise quite unsuitable because you often search for titles or artists.
The search works well in the MediaBrowser, but it seems to be implemented differently.
