Replaced WD TV Live with Sony Blu-ray DVD BDP-S5100 and that fixed the problem.

Just to consolidate the problem information for a link to the debug team.

I have a similar problem. I am using MM version 4.1.0.1692. I have a very large music library. All of my music files will play when using MM Player. However, a large number of these files will not play when using UPnP/DLNA Renderer using WD TV Live. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I may not have described my problem clearly enough. All the music files on my PC are flac. When I say that some of the files will not play, I do not mean MM is streaming them and I do not hear any sound. I mean that when one of these files is selected for play, nothing happens. Everything about the file is filled in at the bottom: title, artist, etc. It's just that nothing happens. Hope this better explains the problem.

Debug Team: I will start DebugView running, then I will start playing a song that DNLA plays OK. I will then tab to the next song which DNLA does not play. It may be interesting to note that both of these songs were imported by MM from the same CD several years ago. Both play fine with MM Player. Let me know if you need the two flac files.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Still could be the same thing. Maybe the sample rate is different and not supported.

Check Auto-Conversion options in the Media Server and check what formats the client supports. Clients will only play supported formats and this can be tricky to decipher (it may play MP3, but only CBR, etc.).

That is great news for MMW the final result is 6:0 for MediaMonkey.

Thank you for feedback.

Problem solved !

I upgraded to MM Gold 4.1.0.1692 and it now streams ALL my MP3 songs purchased from Amazon regardless of which year I purchased them. For some reason Windows Media Player won't stream about half of my 2014 purchases although I can play them on my PC with WMP. I had no problems with songs purchased in 2013 or earlier.

However, MM can stream them all to my 6 Grace GDI-IRC6000 internet radios.

I've also noticed that those radios need a power reset on a random basis to recognize the WMP server. Those radios ALWAYS recognize the MM server without any resets.

[quote="Mitch470"]I have about 1,000 songs in mp3 format within MediaMonkey (lifetime gold edition) version 4.0.7.1511. I use MS Windows 8.1 and the latest version of Windows Media Player. I can stream all the songs but 2 to my 6 Grace Internet Radios via a WiFi Network using an ATT Residential Gateway.

I purchased 4 songs rom Amazon this year and have all 4 in a Play List in MediaMonkey and in Windows Media Player labeled "2014 Song Additions" in both. For some reason, at first only 1 would stream. Then the second started to stream a day later.

However, 2 of those songs will not stream. They both play fine in MM and WMP. I have them in other playlists as well but even there those 2 songs will not stream. They also play fine on my Amazon Kindle Fire HDX.

Does anyone have ideas on what is wrong?[/quote]

Mitch,

I used to own a Pioneer N-50 network audio player which would take the huff with tracks having an embedded image greater than 1MB in size. Not only did it refuse to play the track, but also stalled and then automatically rebooted itself. The relevant tracks would play correctly on computers. Even though I no longer own this player/renderer I still habitually make sure my album covers are under 1MB in size.

I do not use MP3 or wireless connectivity, but when experiencing similar problems with FLAC files I head straight to the file's metadata via Mp3tag, and nine out of ten times I am able to cure the problem. Have you tried making copies of your tracks, deleting extraneous metadata, and seeing if they will then stream to your Grace players?

As daft as it may sound, I have previously converted current FLAC files to FLAC for a second time within Winamp to circumvent issues as well. It would appear this encoding functionality within MediaMonkey must to be paid for. Maybe you know how to do this already, but here goes anyway. Within MediaMonkey, right-click on track > Send to... > Folder (Rip/Convert) > Convert to > Convert Files box, including Destination, Format, and Settings > OK button.

Hope this helps.

John.

No. You said you are sharing with WMP anyway, this setting wouldn't affect you at all.

Even if you shared with MM it would not affect anything because you do not use auto-conversion. And even if you did use auto-conversion, 5000 MB would be more than enough. I doubt your tracks are larger than 5000 MB individually.

[quote="Mitch470"]I notice that I do NOT have MM Media Sharing checked off. I also do not show Add Shares in that pane. I am sharing with Windows Media Player. Why would that setup only affect 2 out of my 1,000 songs?

If I enabled Media Sharing in MM, would that clash with the WMP sharing?

Is it possible that the Metadata or file name sof those 2 songs is defective in some way. If so, where should I look using MM to change the particular Metadata fields?[/quote]
If you are sharing with WMP then why do you think MM is causing the problem?

In Tools > Options > Media Servers you can configure the server. In the configuration you can set Auto-Conversion options (Gold feature) which will convert the files before streaming to a client. This could be enabled and causing conversion problems. Otherwise it is likely the client that has trouble with the files (in which case Auto-Conversion may be able to stream them).

[quote="Lowlander"]Do you have any Auto-Conversion applied to those files?[/quote]

What is Auto-Conversion? The 2 song files were treated like all the rest. They download via Amazon Cloud Player. Then I add my star rating with Media Monkey Then I add them to playlists in Media Monkey and Windows Media Player. There was a third song file which didn't stream the first day. Then on the second day it streamed fine.

Its just 2 out of 1000 song files which cannot stream via WiFi to my Grace Internet Radios.
