Windows 10: DLNA servers under network locations

I had a few DLNA servers (originating from the user accounts on my other desktop) showing up on my laptop under network location. At the time, I right clicked some of these and selected to remove the device. Which made them disappear from the network locations. My intention at the time but I now want to restore these.

The difference to the tutorial linked is I didn't completely suppress the feature via the process above. As I had left some DLNA servers alone and they still show (such as from our windows 7 laptop). How do I go about adding the missing ones back in?

N95 DLNA Server

Hello



According to wikipedia the N95 has got a DLNA Server. Is this right and can I use it to play over a network to my DLNA Receiver?



Thanks

 

Windows 10 DLNA support; 200 object Hard Limit

I have a DLNA Media server and Windows 10 will only allow me to see up-to a maximum of 200 files or folders in the DLNA server directory structure.

If I use Windows Media Player to browse the server then all files and directories are shown.

The Problem occurs if I go to "This PC\Media Library (SERVER)" from Explorer.

I don't want to set up a drive mapping to a network share just to access the content (circumventing DLNA), and I shouldn't have too. This worked fine in Windows 8.1 it seems to be a problem with Windows 10.

Is there a registry entry in Windows 10 that needs changing to get full DLNA functionality back?

Thanks.

 

Same thing happened to me - did you ever find out how to get them back?

Sadly I never got to the bottom of this

 

Thanks for letting me know.

I have managed to get mine back by clicking on "Access Media" in the ribbon for "This PC" in Explorer, followed by "Connect to a media server". This got one of them back the first time I tried it, nothing the second time, but mysteriously did manage to find the other one the third time.

Note: nothing was actually "broken" in my case - all networking was working fine. I just wanted the icons back under "Network locations" in Explorer when looking at "This PC". Doing the above brought the icons back.

Hope this helps!

Oh wow, thank you so much - I had resigned myself to not being able to fix this.
