Do you have Windows Media Player installed? If so, does it show up as a UPnP server? I am wondering if there is a conflict there.

Thanks

Eric

I doubt that. I am running MM 4.1 on Windows 8 and I don't have any issues streaming over upnp to my iPhone, iPad, laptop, or TV.

The 4.1 beta did not work. It has to have something to do with MM4 running on Win8 because when the MM 4.x server was running on Win7 the Win8 tablet could see the MM4 server. I don't remember if the Win8 tablet could see WMP as a UPnP server or not, but it does now, so I don't think it has anything to do with "discovery". I guess I'll open a support ticket with the issue.

Thanks,

Eric

Only other thing I can think to try is the 4.1 beta version of MMW, maybe the older version doesn't work for whatever reason.

Wait, wait. MM8 doesn't serve files. You need MMW.

Here is what I have tried in the last hour.

On the Win8 box:
Turned FW/AV off , added new port in media sharing in MM and turned on the "Accept external IP addresses", turned on "Share automatically with all new devices" and "Notify me when new device attempts to connect".

On the Win8 Tablet:
Removed the 2 device entries for "Media Monkey Renderer (Not Responding)" and "Media Monkey Server (Disconnected)

Still no go on MM8 on the tablet finding the Win8 "Server" box. No notifications that there was a connection attempt.

I did a "Add Device" on the Win8 Tablet and it did not find the MM UPnP server.

Went to the "desktop" on the tablet and in "file explorer" I see 2 entries for MM Server & 1 entry for MM Renderer, but MM8 (the brand new one that was updated today) still does not see the MM8 UPnP server.

Nope, I also allowed all IGMP In/Out in my personal firewall and that did not do it either.

It might not be referred to as IGMP proxy, look for "Multicast" or "Multicast filter" as well, and disable.

Doesn't matter. Just using a different computer can be an issue with certain router settings.

Check your router settings for "IGMP proxy" and disable it.

What type of router do you have? Sometimes certain router settings can cause discovery problems on Upnp.
