Not binding to network adapter.

Using Serviio v1.10.1 Pro on Windows 10 Pro.

I have recently installed ProtonVPN, I now have Ethernet & Ethernet 2 listed as network adapters.
Ethernet 2 is the VPN. I tried to bind Serviio to the address of the Ethernet one, which is the IP w/ adapter name.
Whenever I use the VPN, Serviio service stops, and the console says that it is not running. Sometimes I have to
restart Windows in order to get the service to start back up.
ProtonVPN does have the option to only allow/block specific programs/apps from using the VPN.
I've tried both block and allow. Seems as if Serviio doesn't see the difference in network connections, I know that
the VPN is just a virtual adapter, so I don't think Serviio can distinguish between the physical and virtual.

Any help here. Thank You.

Yep, DLNA was never designed with multiple NIC's in mind... try:

  • Start your VPN
  • Ensure that ServiioService.exe is blocked from using the VPN
  • Stop your VPN
  • Bind Serviio to the IP address of your physical adaptor
  • Enable detailed logging and restart your PC
  • After Serviio has started, start your VPN
If this doesn't work (and I suspect that may be the case) post the log file so we can see what is happening.

Thanks for help. Problem was in the actual app. Got around it with OpenVPN configs.
