It's not a problem with the plugin, this is network protocol related.
As far as i know, the discovery service is based on mdns, like many other services: airplay, airprint etc. The idea is to identify the members of a network, without having a fully configured dns running. Instead of asking a dns server for the hostnames, all members on the network are directly adressed. mdns sends a multicast to the network and is asking for the matching hostname/ip address. The service is in RFC defined and only works in a network/subnet, mdns will not be routed. If you want to have mdns between different networks/subnet or between different vlans you need to use an mdns repeater/reflector with 2 or more network interfaces, one for every vlan. There are different solutions like avahi or other repeaters you can use. Google for "mdns repeater" will help... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ urknall's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=67774 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=104614 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
