Hi Folks
Been having a few issues (unusually!) with LMS not appearing as a server
on my Win10 network, although all my Radios around the house can play
radio stations as well as my MP3 collection. In fact, everything seems
to work, except I can't *see* LMS on any PC as a media device. Weird!
Occa
These sort of errors may be due to caching old data. UPNP is the
mechanism which will make LMS appear under Windows and other system
which recognise uPNP servers.
I'd enable network.upnp logging to get more info. If it is on startup
you'll also need to tick the "save logging ..."

Cheers BPA.
How do I enable 'network.upnp logging'?
If I post the log here, would you be able to diagnose it for me?
Thanks

I have often wondered about the best way to start a new log file. Is
there a better way than manually deleting the current one?

No new messages so after looking uPNP code and it seems all logging is
done at DEBUG level. Please repeat with network.upnp at DEBUG.
If these mnessage have just started happening - what has changed on your
system ?
There seems to be roughly same number of upnp messages as ickstream
messages - i
yes, ickstream IS new. Installed yesterday, but missing server icon on
Win10 was happening before then.
Off to debug...

Hi again BPA
Here is the replacement log with logging set to 'debug'.
Are the contents of any help in determining the issue (point taken about
ickstream!)

There is somehting wrong with your system (probably unrelated) - all log
message should be date & time stamped - yours are missing this. To fix
this
Stop Squeezebox Server, delete the log.conf file in your prefs
directory, then restart the server.
Also no DEBUG level message in the log - are you
Ouch! Will deleting 'prefs' screw up any other settings?

Yes, I triple checked I'd done this.

Sorry bpa
I'm not sure where we go from here. I appreciate your help, but the log
is STILL not adding a date/time stamp.
Appreciate any further advice - even if it means, we can't do any more
until the server shows the timestamp.
Onwards and upwards! :)

Hi BPA
Yes, Twonky is on port 9000 and LMS on 9001. They've been getting along
well for the past year - no issues at all.
Yes.. lots of players. I have no reason to think there's a problem

I think you should switch off uPNP in LMS - by the sounds of it you
don't need it - go to Plugins and remove the Andy Grusman plugin (this
is what exposes your players as uPNP devices in Windows etc)

Hi. I run LMS on an Ubuntu 18.04 media server. It works fine when I
stream to my Squeezebox.
Sometimes I want to stream to a desktop/laptop using VLC. Playing MP3
files is never a problem.
Playing flac files never works.
I've posted at the VLC forum; but wanted to post here as well the result
Do you have "lame" installed on your LMS server system?
I think that LMS is usually configured to use it to convert flac to mp3
if required.

Are you wed to using VLC? It's a great video player, but a crappy music

You shouldn't need to start LMS via your desktop shortcut. LMS is
running already as shown in the status message in your screenshot (and
as the "Abort scan" button indicates, it was scanning your library for
new and changed files).
You have chosen the startup option "Automatically run at login"
