    Default Slow/No folder content delivery to DLNA

    I'm running Mezzmo 4.1.2 on Win7-64 and am having a problem with folder contents sometimes being extremely slow to appear on the DLNA target (Sony BDP-S5100). Sometimes they don't show up at all. Other times they show up very quickly. The database has just under 15,000 items in it. Due to the slow performance I moved the database to a SSD drive. This helped a bit but still I'm seeing an annoying number of folders on the TV (via the Blu-Ray player) show up apparently empty when I know they're not. I'm not seeing the same type of slowness when accessing the database via the Mezzmo console. When a folder refuses to come up it seems to stay that way. Traveling up the directory tree and back down does not result in contents showing up if they were not displayed the first time. The problem occurs with no particular folder that I can tell. One time a folder will work fine, then it won't, then it's fine again (on multiple restarts of the Blu-Ray player).

    The computer has a quad core i7 CPU and 32GB RAM so it should be well equipped to provide blazing speed. I've not seen many transcoding issues. The computer is hard wired to the network though the Blu-Ray player is using wi-fi.

    I was away for a while and didn't keep up with Mezzmo updates, only recently updating from 3.x to 4.1.0 (and ultimately to 4.1.2). I did not see this problem with 3.x.

    Any luck on this one? I experience the same issue from time to time..

    And I have no idea why, because sometimes it works just flawless.. sometimes I get the described issue.
    Not that it's a biggy, I simply exit the Media Player on the Samsung TV and restart it. Usually restarting the Samsung DLNA Player a 2nd time solves the issue.. sometimes I need to give it a third attempt..
    and sometimes it works just right out of the box the first time

    It's not a big issue, pressing 2 or 3 buttons additionally.. But would be nice if you can track what is causing it..

    I thought it was a Samsung issue, but since non-Samsung users also report this, or at least 1 non Samsung, i guess it might be something else then just blaming it on Samsung.

    I did notice: restarting all network devices.. wait 5 Minutes, and this issue never happens!
    After a few hours network routers/switches/servers back on.. and it gets back..

    Have you upgraded to Mezzmo v4.1.3.0? We did make several improvements in this area for this version. Let us know how that goes. If no better, then a set of logs will tell us what's going wrong. Turn on logging in Mezzmo (see http://forum.conceiva.com/showthread...nostic-logging) and restart your Mezzmo server. Reproduce the slow browsing and no content delivery problems you mention. Then stop your Mezzmo server and exit Mezzmo. Zip up all the logs and email them to us at support [at] conceiva [dot] com.

    Well I've just e-mailed logs to you.

    1st attempt 'No media found'
    2nd attempt I browsed to the folder no problem.

    Usually it hangs on going into the folder, then only shows a few of the files.
