MM Android can't play directly from MM DLNA server on Computer?

Post by GaryS2000 »

I have MM on a windows 10 computer set up as a DLNA server. I have a BluDento Bluetooth receiver cabled to my living room stereo by RCA cables. I have a Android cell phone with MM player installed on it which is paired to the BluDento. I want to play music from my cell phone, not from the cell phone SD card, but from the MM DNLA server on the computer.

MM seems to only be able to play music from the SD card after it is deposited on the SD card from the MM DLNA server on the computer. If I am at home why would I want to consume storage on the SD card to play music I already have stored on the computer?

The inability of the MM android app to stream music from the MM computer app by DNLA Wi-Fi and then play it on the stereo by streaming it to the BluDento by blue tooth connection would seem to be a design omission.

Please confirm this can not be done.

UPnP in MMA can connect to the MediaMonkey Server on the same network.
