DLNA track caching issue
« on: November 05, 2012, 01:43:41 AM »

Hi.

I have some problems with streaming mp3 from usb drive conected to DIR-645 to my Ampli.
I use ONKYO TX-NR609. It looks like Dlink is sending only about 1 MB of track, and then it stops. So it gives me random time of track depending of its bitrate (mostly 1m 5 sec). After this time, reciever start play next song...about 1MB, and again, and again...
Also when i fast forward track to eg: 1m23sec and then play...it also stops playing after the same time.

I have tested it on:
- ONKYO 609 - on two recievers
- ONKYO 538

Streaming media to SAMSUNG TV, LG Blue-Ray works ok, but both of this hardware caches all track at start.
It looks like problem exist only with hardware that caches content partialy/during play.

I also tested my ONKYO 609 with:
- DLink NAS DNS-323 - works ok
- Asus router RT-N56U - works ok
- QNAP NAS(TwonkyMedia) - works ok
- OpenWRT (uShare) - works ok

I tried to upgrade firmware to the latest, and still same issue. Also no f/w set.

Link>Welcome!
What Hardware version is your router? Look at sticker under router.
Link>What Firmware version is currently loaded? Found on routers web page under status.
What region are you located?
Are you wired or wireless connected to the router?
Has a Factory Reset been performed?


Some things to try: - Log into the routers web page at 192.168.0.1.
Turn off ALL QoS or Disable Traffic Shaping (DIR only) GameFuel (DGL only and if ON.) options. Advanced/QoS or Gamefuel.
Turn off Advanced DNS Services if you have this option under Setup/Internet/Manual.
Turn on DNS Relay under Setup/Networking.
Setup DHCP reserved IP addresses for all devices ON the router. Setup/Networking. This ensures each devices gets its own IP address when turned on and connected, eliminates IP address conflicts and helps in troubleshooting.
Ensure devices are set to auto obtain an IP address.
Set Firewall settings to Endpoint Independent for TCP and UDP under Advanced/Firewall.
Enable uPnP and Multi-cast Streaming under Advanced/Networking. Disable uPnP for testing Port Forwarding rules.
WAN Port Speed set to Auto or specific speed? Some newer ISP modems support 1000Mb so manually setting to Gb speeds can be supported by the router. Advanced/Advanced Networking/WAN Port Speed

Hi. Thanks for reply.

Hardware - A1
Firmware - 1.01 upgraded to 1.02, after upgrade Factory reset, and still same issue.
Region: Poland

All hardware like Samsung TV, LG Blue-Ray and Onkyo Reciever connected wired. I have even tested all UTP wires on Wavetek 8155 LAN cable certifier, and all ISO test where ok.

Settings:
QoS - disabled
Reciever - IP set manualy and dont match in dhcp pool. All other use DHCP.
WAN - tried set to auto or 100 Mbps - i dont have any modem. I'm connected to ISP network directly by UTP Cable.
Advanced DNS - no that option.
DNS Relay - enabled.
uPnP and Multicast streaming - tried all possible options, now set to enabled.
EEE - tried enabled and disabled, now set to disabled.
Port Forwarding - i dont use these rules, all are disabled.
Advanced/Firewall - tried all, now set to Endpoint Protection

If you want, i can connect reviever through some other hardware like managment switch and post graphs showing throughput in time on ports when it happens.

I recommend setup reserved IP addresses for all devices ON the router. Setup/Networking. This ensures each devices gets its own IP address when turned on and connected, eliminates IP address conflicts and helps in troubleshooting.
Ensure devices are set to auto obtain an IP address.

Receiver should on the same IP address pool of 192.168.0.some number.

Sorry for my english, maybe i have decriebed it wrong.

Router LAN: 192.168.0.1
Reciever: 192.168.0.10 set manually, due to internal web server with some reciever settings.
Alle other hardware use DHCP, Wireless secured by WPA2, so no one other coonect to it.
DHCP Pool: 192.168.0.100 - 199.

So, im sure there is no conflict. Still should i set it to DHCP and address reservation ?

I would test it out and see how it goes. Seems like all others are working accept for the RCVR when streaming??

Yes. All other hardware (Samsung TV and LG BLue Ray Player) work good with DIR-645, but they cache full track at start. But reciever not, plays only random time. Other routers/NAS (eg Dlink NAS DNS-323 or Asus RT-N56U router) also works good with my Reciever (ONKYO TX-NR609).

I will test all possible connections between TV, Blue-Ray and DIR-645 and post graphs. I will also post graph from ONKYO-609<->DNS-323 to compare it with ONKYO-609<->DIR-645.

Regards.

It almost seems like this one RCVR is not caching like maybe it should? If other devices are working with the router, I presume this one RCVR needs to be looked at. I might call the Mfr for this one RCVR and ask them if there is any caching configuration or something to help it properly stream data.

Keep us posted.
