VLC 3.0.x unable to stream/render to LG TV webOS (DLNA)

[khamikazes]

Hi Everyone,

VLC 3.0.11 (lastest Windows x64 also tested with 3.0.6 and 3.0.4) is not displaying LG TV webOS as video renderer (DLNA).

I know LG TV webOS works as DLAN renderer to allow streaming pushed from Windows, as even Windows 7 via Explorer right-click menu "Play to" feature (basically Windows Media Player) can see LG TV webOS as DLNA renderer and streaming works just fine.

What is VLC missing here?

I hope this is something that can be worked out between all parties here.

Thanks,

PS: I posted the same to LG forum:

By the way the TV is LG CX (2020 Class 4K Smart OLED TV w/ AI ThinQ *).

I tested with VLC 4.x Dev Nightly ** and result is the same (renderer keeps scanning but does not see the TV).

Hi Everyone, any other ideas, comments, thoughts around how to make DLNA work in VLC either 3.x or 4.x?
