To whom it may concern,

Not sure where to troubleshoot this. The only client device I have issue navigating my DLNA servers is with VLC. It will find a server under the Local Network>Universal Plug'n'Play tab, but when you double click it nothing happens. The output from the debug log is as follows:

main debug: processing request item: TwonkyMedia [NAS-01], node: Universal Plug'n'Play, skip: 0
main debug: resyncing on TwonkyMedia [NAS-01]
main debug: TwonkyMedia [NAS-01] is at 0

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,

Did you try another player?
Can you try nightly builds? (https://launchpad.net/~videolan/+archive/master-daily)
Some pathces for UPnP were applied in the latest git version.

Unfortunately, the upgrade from the daily build is failing with the following errors:

Errors were encountered while processing:
/var/cache/apt/archives/vlc_2.1.0~~git20120522+r1516-0~r78~precise1_amd64.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

I have no problems using clients on my Android Phone, Foobar on Windows, and miniDNLA on ubuntu.

Tried the stable-dailies and getting the following:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
vlc : Depends: vlc-nox (= 2.0.1+git20120522+r216-0~r37~precise1) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libvlccore5 (>= 2.0.0) but it is not going to be installed
Recommends: vlc-plugin-notify (= 2.0.1+git20120522+r216-0~r37~precise1) but it is not going to be installed
Recommends: vlc-plugin-pulse (= 2.0.1+git20120522+r216-0~r37~precise1) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

I suppose I'll wait a few days on the dailies and see if it has been fixed.

How about VLC on windows? same error?

It takes a lot of time to get all the items from Twonky Media Server.

Unfortunately there is no easy way to fix that, this requires some major work on playlist model in VLC.
