smokey7722 12 Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 I know theres been a few people posting they have this specific TV model working however for some reason mine won't detect and list my MB server. According to my dashboard it is listing the TV as connected but if I go to Source it is not listed as it used to be (when I was using Serviio as the DLNA server). I do have AllShare enabled and as I said, if I restart Serviio it picks it up immediately. In addition my preliminary testing with the Marantz is similar, it shows up as an active device but the receiver itself does not see my MB server as a potential media server (and just like the Samsung, if I start the Serviio services, it shows up immediately there as well). I have verified that Serviio is completely shutdown and there are no services running from it. Looking at a netstat to see what ports are listening for the MB service shows below: PS C:\Users\adamz> netstat -ano | select-string 3028 TCP 0.0.0.0:843 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING 3028 TCP 0.0.0.0:8945 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING 3028 TCP 10.0.0.8:8945 10.0.0.118:50793 ESTABLISHED 3028 TCP 10.0.0.8:51881 23.23.156.240:80 ESTABLISHED 3028 TCP 10.0.0.8:51883 108.162.197.196:80 ESTABLISHED 3028 TCP 10.0.0.8:51884 108.162.197.196:80 ESTABLISHED 3028 TCP 10.0.0.8:51885 108.162.197.196:80 ESTABLISHED 3028 TCP 10.0.0.8:51889 66.147.244.231:80 CLOSE_WAIT 3028 TCP 10.0.0.8:51892 10.0.0.124:8080 ESTABLISHED 3028 UDP 0.0.0.0:7359 *:* 3028 UDP 10.0.0.8:57251 *:* 3028 UDP 127.0.0.1:57252 *:* 3028 When I turn the TV on, or hit the refresh (A) button while on the Sources screen the MB log shows: 2014-03-22 13:27:04.5905 Error - PlayTo: Error updating device info The operation has timed out System.Net.WebException at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.GetRequestStream(TransportContext& context) at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.GetRequestStream() at MediaBrowser.Common.Implementations.HttpClientManager.HttpClientManager.<SendAsync>d__7.MoveNext() --- End of stack trace from previous location where exception was thrown --- at System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter.ThrowForNonSuccess(Task task) at System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter.HandleNonSuccessAndDebuggerNotification(Task task) at MediaBrowser.Dlna.PlayTo.SsdpHttpClient.<SendCommandAsync>d__0.MoveNext() --- End of stack trace from previous location where exception was thrown --- at System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter.ThrowForNonSuccess(Task task) at System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter.HandleNonSuccessAndDebuggerNotification(Task task) at MediaBrowser.Dlna.PlayTo.Device.<GetTransportInfo>d__65.MoveNext() --- End of stack trace from previous location where exception was thrown --- at System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter.ThrowForNonSuccess(Task task) at System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter.HandleNonSuccessAndDebuggerNotification(Task task) at MediaBrowser.Dlna.PlayTo.Device.<TimerCallback>d__48.MoveNext() 2014-03-22 13:27:11.0048 Debug - PlayTo: Controller disposed 2014-03-22 13:27:17.4865 Error - PlayTo: Error updating device info Unable to connect to the remote server System.Net.WebException at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.GetRequestStream(TransportContext& context) at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.GetRequestStream() at MediaBrowser.Common.Implementations.HttpClientManager.HttpClientManager.<SendAsync>d__7.MoveNext() --- End of stack trace from previous location where exception was thrown --- at System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter.ThrowForNonSuccess(Task task) at System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter.HandleNonSuccessAndDebuggerNotification(Task task) at MediaBrowser.Dlna.PlayTo.SsdpHttpClient.<SendCommandAsync>d__0.MoveNext() --- End of stack trace from previous location where exception was thrown --- at System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter.ThrowForNonSuccess(Task task) at System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter.HandleNonSuccessAndDebuggerNotification(Task task) at MediaBrowser.Dlna.PlayTo.Device.<GetTransportInfo>d__65.MoveNext() --- End of stack trace from previous location where exception was thrown --- at System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter.ThrowForNonSuccess(Task task) at System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter.HandleNonSuccessAndDebuggerNotification(Task task) at MediaBrowser.Dlna.PlayTo.Device.<TimerCallback>d__48.MoveNext() InnerException: System.Net.Sockets.SocketException No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 10.0.0.196:7676 at System.Net.Sockets.Socket.DoConnect(EndPoint endPointSnapshot, SocketAddress socketAddress) at System.Net.ServicePoint.ConnectSocketInternal(Boolean connectFailure, Socket s4, Socket s6, Socket& socket, IPAddress& address, ConnectSocketState state, IAsyncResult asyncResult, Exception& exception) In addition, the Dashboard shows the TV as connected: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AgileHumor 123 Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 I've had no issues with this TV (not receiver). I'm assuming the problem is more with your server then the TV. Note - You are prompted the TV the first time the MB server plays to your tv (security feature). Make sure you click "allow". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7illusions 1249 Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Just as @@AgileHumor pointed out, the security in the Samsung could very well be the issue. Just clear the list of allowed connections in the tv and retry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokey7722 12 Posted March 23, 2014 Author Share Posted March 23, 2014 (edited) I went through and didn't see any options for clearing allowed connections. To confirm I am not looking in the wrong location, would someone be able to give me a quick direction on where to confirm this? A DLNA server on my network usually just showed up as a new option in the Source menu of the TV listed under AllShare devices. I've never had to go through any security changes or settings on the television. The concern is that my receiver doesn't see the DLNA server in MB either so I am really thinking its not the device but something in my installation. The only setting for DLNA is the option for "Enable DLNA Play To". Does this setting actually turn the DLNA server on and off? If so, it doesn't seem to be doing much on my installation. For the hell of it I did a netstat before and a netstat after enabling DLNA via this setting and the only difference is one additional UDP port of 57311 is listening. Thats the only difference. Is there a list of ports for the DLNA server that I could compare this to? WIth it disabled: PS C:\Users\adamz> netstat -ano | findstr 2340 TCP 0.0.0.0:843 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING 2340 TCP 0.0.0.0:8945 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING 2340 TCP 10.0.0.8:8945 10.0.0.114:55837 ESTABLISHED 2340 TCP 10.0.0.8:8945 10.0.0.118:56359 CLOSE_WAIT 2340 TCP 10.0.0.8:8945 10.0.0.118:56631 ESTABLISHED 2340 TCP 10.0.0.8:51661 10.0.0.114:2869 ESTABLISHED 2340 TCP 10.0.0.8:51704 10.0.0.124:8080 ESTABLISHED 2340 UDP 0.0.0.0:7359 *:* 2340 UDP 10.0.0.8:50050 *:* 2340 UDP 10.0.0.8:57309 *:* 2340 UDP 127.0.0.1:50051 *:* 2340 UDP 127.0.0.1:57310 *:* 2340 With the setting enabled: PS C:\Users\adamz> netstat -ano | findstr 2340 TCP 0.0.0.0:843 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING 2340 TCP 0.0.0.0:8945 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING 2340 TCP 10.0.0.8:8945 10.0.0.114:55837 ESTABLISHED 2340 TCP 10.0.0.8:8945 10.0.0.118:56359 CLOSE_WAIT 2340 TCP 10.0.0.8:8945 10.0.0.118:56631 ESTABLISHED 2340 TCP 10.0.0.8:51661 10.0.0.114:2869 ESTABLISHED 2340 TCP 10.0.0.8:51704 10.0.0.124:8080 ESTABLISHED 2340 UDP 0.0.0.0:7359 *:* 2340 UDP 10.0.0.8:50050 *:* 2340 UDP 10.0.0.8:57309 *:* 2340 UDP 10.0.0.8:57311 *:* 2340 UDP 127.0.0.1:50051 *:* 2340 UDP 127.0.0.1:57310 *:* 2340 UDP 127.0.0.1:57312 *:* 2340 Edited March 23, 2014 by smokey7722 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AgileHumor 123 Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 (edited) Menu Network AllShare Settings You should see the IP of you MB3 server. You go from MB3 to Samsung TV...using the web browser or mobile app. You don't browse anything from the Samsung TV.

smokey7722 12 Posted March 23, 2014 Author Share Posted March 23, 2014 (edited) Menu Network AllShare Settings You should see the IP of you MB3 server. You go from MB3 to Samsung TV...using the web browser or mobile app. You don't browse anything from the Samsung TV. AllShare Settings just says "No equipment stored". I had looked their earlier but saw nothing. AHHH, your last comment of "You go from MB3 to Samsung TV...using the web browser or mobile app." got it. I was expecting this to work like all other DLNA servers I have used, which advertise and allow the client to browse the media, not have to send the command to the device for playback. I was just able to push a music album to the television and its working fine. Edited March 23, 2014 by smokey7722 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokey7722 12 Posted March 23, 2014 Author Share Posted March 23, 2014 (edited) So the one issue I just noticed with this is that if I send an album to the TV, it will send each track one at a time. I can't skip or choose a specific track on the TV when its playing. At the same time, if I press stop on the TV (playing track 2 for example), expecting to leave this function and go back to the regular TV functions/use it will stop playing track 2, but it will then start track 3, and then 4 when I hit stop on 3. This continues until the entire album has been sent. Is there a way to have a playlist sent instead of just a single piece of media? EDIT: With further testing it looks like if I power off the TV (I got really frustrated) to stop its playback and then power it back on, the TV goes back to its purpose of displaying whatever its displaying but MB no longer picks up the TV as a destination. The last entry I see in the server log for PlayTo is: 2014-03-23 09:58:04.8813 Debug - PlayTo: Controller disposed It seems there is a timeout I would guess before it picks up the new device again on its power up? The disposal above was at 9:58:04 while the creation below was at 10:01:57. The TV was powered off at the disposal time however it was powered on roughly 10 seconds later and network connectivity confirmed on power up so it should have been much faster. 2014-03-23 10:01:57.5557 Info - PlayTo: DLNA Session created for [TV]Office - UN32EH5300 Edited March 23, 2014 by smokey7722 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AgileHumor 123 Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 There should be a remote at the album level vs playing an individual track. This is how you play a Tv season. Never tried music I'm afraid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never tried music I'm afraid. Right thats what I did, however its not sending an album, it seems like it makes an internal playlist within MB and sends one track at a time. Not an album playlist to the TV for it to play, but a single track at a time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beardyname 195 Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 For future reference, the DLNA implementation that currently exists in MB3 is a play-to functionality rather than a server functionality. aka you can't browse your library from the TV but you should be able to play-to from any device. (not sure about MBT or MBC but you get my point ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beardyname 195 Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Yeah that sounds like something not yet implemented ^^ However I don't dare to speculate if playlist are a thing with DLNA or no, since i avoid it as far as i can I'm sure we are gonna get clarification in the upcoming future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its the ONLY thing I generally use it for. The issue really comes down to if I press STOP on the TV, I want it to stop - not stop playing that track and be sent the next to play.

Beardyname 195 Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Yeah that can't be fun... but i think it's safe to say that this will be improved upon seeing as the music bit overall will get an overhaul sooner or later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokey7722 12 Posted March 23, 2014 Author Share Posted March 23, 2014 Yup, it works for now to some degree. Hopefully future versions will get that part working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmac 132 Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Another way I've found to stop playback once you've queued a bunch of songs (since hitting stop on the TV just plays the next song in the queue), is to send a new song on its own from your mobile device and then stop it. It seems to cancel the existing queued tracks. A bit of a pain, but it works for now. This feature is still new to MB3, and will only improve with time.

If you hit stop from the MBC remote client (e.g. your phone), does it still try and play the next track? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I left earlier and am now traveling for the week so I won't be able to test until I get back Saturday evening though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
