I "think" that the DLNA functionality has been moved to a plugin. I also "think" that plugin is called "DLNA."

I could be wrong as I do not use DLNA but I recently installed EMBY for a friend and, as I was cleaning up the installation I remember removing a plugin called "DLNA." after that removal I went looking for DLNA settings to turn off DLNA and I could not find any settings.

Since I have never wanted to use DLNA I automatically disable everything related to it but, if I am correct, to reenable it all you need to do is install and configure the DLNA plugin.

On the dashboard, towards the bottom of the menu on the left, Dlna is under the Devices subheading.

I think the plugin that generates that is installed by default, but I guess I may be wrong...

You are correct I think as I have found the DLNA plugin in the plugin section every time I have installed EMBY. I automatically remove that, useless for me, plugin along with several others. I also have to install a couple very useful plugins like "Genre Cleaner" to get the functionality desired. I find a lot of Emby's defaults to be just wrong for me and the people I help with their instillation.
