I want to use Volumio (raspberry Pi 3) to play music streamed from Audirvana. I seem to remember, before I wanted to do this, that Audirvana could ‘see’ Volumio as a network player and I could select and use it. Now that I wish to do this regularly, the option seems to have gone from Audirvana. In order to test the network etc, I installed another DNLA-capable player on the Pi and found this worked fine, which suggests that the problem is not with Audirvana. What do I need to do to get this working with Volumio?
Many thanks for that reply which confirms my memory that this did work at one time.
I think, therefore, I have a problem. My Volumio does not appear on the network (via Audirvana 3.5) as it once did, but another well-known DNLA player does. This would seem to obviate computer firewall issues and, indeed, switching the windows firewall off makes no difference. How might I test the Volumio instance to see if there is any reason for the absence of DNLA connectivity?
I managed to fix this issue and I’m posting in case anyone might benefit from the very simple solution.
I got to wondering whether the fact that both the wireless and wired networks had a working connection to Volumio might be causing some conflict. Unlikely, I thought, but let’s try. I disconnected the wired connection and restarted Volumio and it came back up as a visible DLNA renderer. I then reconnected the wired connection and restarted again and it was still there! Although I had previously restarted many times, I had not done so with the wired network disconnected. This seems to a have been what was needed. Perhaps it allowed some automatic internal re-configuration.
