The VideoLAN Forums

Hello
I have 2 upnp servers - Servio and MS Media server (using media player). They works on my PC. In addition, I have laptop with the vlc.
All worked good. However, one week ago vlc in my laptop stopped seeing (detecting) upnp at all.
You should know that:
- laptop and pc have same version windows 10 x64, also same antivirus and same vlc-3.0.8-win64
- one week ago vlc on my laptop worked without any problem.
- there is no problem to play video from upnp with vlc on my pc.
- vlc in my phone and androidtv also can identify 2 servers and can play video.
- if I run shortcut "my computer" (to browse folders) on my laptop I can see both servers and copy some video.
- media player on my laptop identify both servers.
- my LAN has "trusted home settings".
- my antivirus trust vlc more than himself.
- I tried to refresh settings, reinstall vlc, install older version vlc-2.0.8-win32 and vlc-3.0.6-win32 – but its didn’t help.
I used "resource monitor" (windows 10 x64 has it) to see where does vlc go after pick "universal Plug'n'Play". And there are differences between vlc on pc and vlc on laptop
On my pc vlc goes to address:
- 239.255.255.250
- 192.168.1.1 (my router)
- 192.168.1.104 (servio server)
On laptop lvc goes to address:
- 224.0.0.251
- 239.255.255.250
- mine-lt (it is "\\mine-lt", the same as "C:\Users")
Can you help me with that?

maybe someone has ideas how to check what might prevent the lvc from going into the router and detect the upnp?
