DLNA bug on 616 - RESOLVED Empty DLNA bug on 616 - RESOLVED

He ,

Not having much luck with DNLA on my new 616. I have the latest firmware that was released in August ("300").

Two big issues:

1. When you go into a source, if it has more than 20 directories, when you try to scroll past #20 to #21 (and a new page), the system re-initializes, and kicks you back to the network menu.

2. The DLNA service does not play transcoded video properly - say"cannot play" video where my Xbox, Samsung bluray, and Samsung TV all play the source fine.

To test both, I recommend using a trial of Play on, which is a very popular DNLA media share program:
http://www.playon.tv/playon

The trial has more than 20 directories (sources), and you will see very quickly that it does not play transcoded video from Playon. By the way, Playon support is very responsive and they will work with you to solve.

Thanks

Hello diamond204;

In regards to your issue- it would possibly be more effective to contact our Product Support Dept for further assistance with this specific issue via our phone number and hours of operation below. We would like to speak with you and work to troubleshoot and resolve your issue, please review to the PM sent to you so a Product Support representative can contact you to get more information regarding your first question. The answer to question 2 is that our receivers do NOT support video files via DLNA, our receivers only support audio files. Also, our receivers only officially support Windows Media Player for DLNA streaming as well; as other DLNA servers are NOT supported to function fully with our receivers. Please respond back so we can contact you and gather more information regarding your 1st point.

Thank You;

DLNA bug on 616 - RESOLVED Empty Spoke with tech - RESOLVED

This weekend I spoke with an Onkyo tech, Shederick, who was very helpful.

The issue that I was having was caused when networking to my PCs Playon server. Unfortunately, Onkyo does not support and other media server at this point except for Windows Media Player.

When we tried to replicate the issue on Windows Media Player, it seemed to work fine.

Also as noted on this thread, the Onkyos do not (as of yet) support video streaming, which is what I was interested in, but obviously will not be able to do so with this receiver.

Hope to see Onkyo in the near future add streaming video to their network feature, as most other consumer electronics network boxes already have this feature.
