Re: samsung tv dlna intermittently disconnects from live book

Hi,

 

I tried everything but still no luck.

Any idea?? The strange is that my WD Live worked for a week, but after that, again it disconnets.

NOTHING changed.

 

I tried with different routers, static ip,  disable energy saving+ disable NIC restart but nothing helped.

 

So now I cannot use my wd live 3tb with my samsung tv because after 7 sec it disconnets using DLNA.

 

Any ide?

 

Rgds,

Mihaly

[ Edited ]

It seems that the MBL only has 8mb cache. So I also got the issue with the streaming interrupt. That was because of I got too many files on my drive. It tryed to get all file associations in the cache but overflowed at some point.

So the result was that the twonky client always trys to fill up the cache but if it overflows the client starts again...

Maybe u should try to erase or transfer some data from ur drive... 

I have around 16600 music files, 3400 pics and 1150 movie files on it with a cache use of 6.8MB

So there is not much air left...

Maybe this helps someone :smileywink:

Re: samsung tv dlna intermittently disconnects from live book

Not sure if Cache is the smoking gun.  This happens to me, too, using WDTVs and Twonky on the MBL...

 

Playing music, it can play for several hours without issue, or it can die as soon as 1-2 minutes after I start the music.

 

But one thing is for certain:  It WILL DIE, mid stream.

 

My MBL has roughly 8,000 music tracks, and is using only 3.3 MB of cache...

Re: samsung tv dlna intermittently disconnects from live book

Well, it appears that in my case, if I turn OFF "Restart Server on NIC changes" option in the Twonky control panel, the problem goes away.

Re: samsung tv dlna intermittently disconnects from live book

Hi all, Same problem here with My Book Live 3Tb disconnecting whilst streaming to my Samsung tv. Did anyone get a solution for this before yet another WD product flies out my window?

Seems as though WD is only good at making internal drives.

New Egg had a sale on Zotac boxes so I snatched one of them up and pointed it at the same NAS with no issues, ever.  I am blaming the Samsung Bluray.

Re: samsung tv dlna intermittently disconnects from live book

Hi,

 

Same issue: Disconnects from DLNA Server when trying to stream using a Samsung Smart TV. My Book Live software version is the current latest (MyBookLive 02.42.02-012 : Core F/W). The media server software version is 2.3.0.12093


Hard Disk Sleep has been disabled. There are no other settings that I can find in relation to the NIC as per thread.

 

Has someone successfully resolved this at all?


Why cannot WD fix this issue? I 've been using Serviio in the past and it working like a charm! but have to have a machine on all the time for it to work.. 

 

WD please help!

 

Thanks
