Is Serviio on a Windows, Mac, or Linux computer? There might be firewall configuration issues.

Oh, sorry, i forget the System. It's run on a linux (debian).

The Firewall can't do anything because the client's and the Serviio are in the same network...

How find the client's a UPnP server? Cry the server all X seconds a broadcast message "here i'm"..??

Well, that's not quite right. The firewall can affect connections from devices on the same network, depending on it's settings. With Linux firewalls, I have zero experience as the only boxes I used in the past were on private, secure networks so the firewalls were disabled.

Oh, i understand you wrong, wich firewall you mean. You mean the Host Firewall right?

In this case you're right - but there isn't any installed firewall or iptables rules.
You must understand the installation so: Clean Debian -> Serviio install. That's was it.

So i'm be rly sure that no firewall is the problem.

What's with the broadcast message? is the called sequence right?

I now have to defer to someone more knowledgeable about uPnP broadcast and DLNA advertisements.

You can send a PM to Zip, who is the one and only Serviio employee. He does it all. I don't recall his email address, but he does of course get the sales(at)serviio.org emails.

His answer: "Try to set the serviio.advertisementDuration system property" was the solution... :lol:
