This issue sounds like: https://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view ... 000#c51930

This is what worked for me:
1) Network reset: https://www.howtogeek.com/265870/how-to ... m-scratch/
2) Restart of PC
3) Upon connecting to my WiFi network it asked me whether I want to allow my PC to be discoverable by others PCs and devices, I clicked [Yes]
=> everything works as expected

My suspicious is that my wife clicked [No] in the past (when she was logging into our WiFi network)

Why Not?

You can apply for beta on ⋮ -> About MediaMonkey -> Apply for test.

That's wonderful news about MMA bypassing UPnP discovery after a successful discovery, but I'll have to wait for standard release as I don't have the option to use beta builds on my device.

Thanks!

You do not need first step, just start MMW when MMA is searching for Server.

HINT: If you use latest beta after first time MMA finds MMW server you can save that setting and that will directly contact MMW instead of searching Network for available MMW servers.

HINT 2: SAme behavior is when you in options start search for MMW sync server.

I've been having this exact same problem for what seems like about a year now. I can confirm this happens with MMW: 4.1.23.1881 and MMA:1.3.3.0842

The proceedure I need to use almost every time is as follows:

Turn off wifi on android device
Close MMW
Go to MMA UPnP, which prompts me to enable wifi, enable wifi
Start MMW and then it shows up as a UPnP source
Use wireless sync

Re: DLNA server running but disappears from some clients

Which version of MediaMonkey and Windows?

DLNA server running but disappears from some clients

I have used MediaMonkey for several years and haven't had this issue until the past few weeks. My DLNA server is visible to some devices on my network, but not others. I am currently unable to see it from either the MediaMonkey app or BubbleUPNP on my Android phone. After a reboot, it usually appears again and I can connect to it, but then it eventually disappears from the list again. The same problem occurs using certain other devices on my network as well, like my Panasonic smart TV. On the other hand, my Yamaha AV Receiver still sees the DLNA server and can connect and play music from it without issue. Nothing has changed in my configuration over the past few weeks that I am aware of. Does anyone have any idea what could cause this sort of behavior? Is there any debugging I can do or log I can access which might tell me why some devices can't consistently see the server anymore?

Ok, I have what I think may be an update to this. Completely by chance I moved my database from a network share to a local drive on the computer because I was seeing some fairly serious performance issues with MMW and I thought this might help. It did but it also appears to have let the sync start working

@JeffV64: have you by any chance got your database on a network share?

I just submitted a ticket with debug logs showing a successful sync and a failed sync, and also my MMA log.

Peke, I don't know if this is what you mean, but I can verify the following (100% reproducible) in my environment:

If I have MMW running and initiate a sync on MMA, connection fails. I also cannot access the MMW media server via MMA, even though I can play access it via my Sonos app.

If I initiate either a sync or a search for the MMW server in MMA and then launch MMW, the action is successful.

I hope this helps.~ Jeff

Hi,
When you get back please test this steps. After MMA shows Scanning -> Start MMW and confirm that you access server?

Does MMA also fail using MMW Library over UPnP when wifi sync fails?
Yes, the UPnP server is not visible in MMA. I'll work on getting a debug log sent through - it won't be for a couple of days though as I am away from home.
