Grilo sees Diskstation

Description of problem:
Rhythmbox does not show media from two uPNP servers.
1. Synology Diskstation: uPNP server is detected but no media shows up
. Search box does not appear

2. miniDLNA: uPNP server is detected, no media to browse, but media
is discovered using search box

3. Both uPNP servers and media are discovered by vlc and Grilo Test UI.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rhythmbox-3.0.1-3.fc20
grilo-0.2.7-1.fc20


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Prepare two uPNP servers for testing: miniDLNA, Synology NAS
2. Ensure uPNP servers are discovered by Grilo Test UI (disable firewall
between servers and renderer)
3. Enable grilo plugin in rhythmbox
4. Start rhythmbox


Actual results:
Both media servers appear under Shared.
No media appears in Browse pane.
a. For Synology Diskstation uPNP: empty browse pane, no search box
(rhythmbox:27096): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: invalid (NULL) pointer instance

b. For miniDLNA: no media in browse pane. search box can discover media

Expected results:
Media appears in Browse pane.


Additional info:
vlc, Grilo Test UI discovers both media servers.

vlc finds both uPnP servers

vlc finds both media servers.
Media is browseable and playable.

Comment 5 Richard Chan 2014-01-06 15:15:49 UTC
Both media servers appear in Totem 3.10.1.

Neither is browseable.

1. MiniDLNA - no media to browse; nothing happens when clicked

2. Synology DiskStation NAS - no media to browse; error dialog:

"Browse Error
 Action Failed"

Comment 6 Nils Tonnätt 2014-01-20 22:07:46 UTC
Same here with Twonky and Logitech Media Server on QNAP. Totem tells me "Unsupported or invalid search criteria" when clicking LMS.

Comment 7 Dan Naughton 2014-02-06 16:24:13 UTC
Same problem with F20.

rhythmbox-3.0.1-3.fc20.x86_64
grilo-0.2.7-1.fc20.x86_64
grilo-plugins-0.2.9-2.fc20.x86_64

DLNA server is visible in rhythmbox, but the shares are not browsable (and obviously not playable)


DLNA server is working.  (miniDLNA on CentOS)
shares are browsable from same F20 client with upnp-inspector  (iptables disabled)
shares work on other DLNA clients on network.

Comment 8 Richard Chan 2014-02-16 10:41:43 UTC
Running with minidlna 1.1.1 on the localhost works is working better.
I can browse and play back media.

Comment 9 Fedora End Of Life 2015-05-29 10:21:28 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 20 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 20. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '20'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 20 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 10 Fedora End Of Life 2015-06-29 14:13:10 UTC
Fedora 20 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-06-23. Fedora 20 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
