Please post a reply if any of the outstanding DNS-320 wishlist items were addressed in the latest firmware release and I'll update the thread. 

[latecomer]

fix the DLNA server please!  i need my album artwork

[JavaLawyer]

fix the DLNA server please!  i need my album artwork

Can other DNS-320 owners confirm the DLNA server is not working correctly? 

[latecomer]

Hi Javalawyer,

It's in the very 2nd post in this thread, I copied and pasted an excerpt below:

JavaLawyer,

If I ever get a replacement for my defective DNS-320 I would like to see them fix the DLNA server.

As I previously posted (topic=39052.0), the DNS-320 implementation doesn't stream Photos or Music to my Samsung UN46B8000XF Television. D-Link Tech Support wasn't any help and referred me to Samsung. When I installed TWONKY media server on the DNS-320 TWONKY streamed the same Photos & Music properly. Also, minidlna installed under UBUNTU, was able to stream those files to my TV. This pretty strongly suggests to me that the problem I am experiencing results from the the DNS-320 DLNA server implementation and should be fixed.

Similarly to the poster above, I have deduced the issue is with the uPnP AV server on DNS 320, cause essentially, album artwork does not display properly on my uPnP media player, while streaming from other media servers like Twonky or Asset is ok. 

Perhaps I'm doing something wrong, but would you be able to advise if the DNS320 uPnP AV server is able to pull up artwork for a folder from thumbnails titled album.jpg or cover.jpg or something similar?

I mainly play .flac files.

[JavaLawyer]

Yes, that's an old thread, and the genesis of the existing DLNA item already on the list. . . It's been so long that I forgot that was on the list. I don't think this issue was addressed.  As far as I know, third party products are (still) required to properly display thumbnail art. There are other owners who lodged the same complaint.

I agree 10000% with this "General - Improved and more user customizable fan control software"

[latecomer]

so Javalawyer, would you know if a fix is in the pipeline or it it placed under the "low priority" list?

[JavaLawyer]

so Javalawyer, would you know if a fix is in the pipeline or it it placed under the "low priority" list?

Unfortunately, I don't have that level of visibility into the DNS-320 firmware road map.  The best that I could do right now is continue to push this list and independently bring high-impact issues to D-Link's attention, which I have been doing all along.

[latecomer]

thanks a lot for your replies.  i don't suppose you know if album art is picked up by the dlink av server by a particular format?  eg album.jpg or cover.jpg as an example?

[JavaLawyer]

I don't know the answer off-hand.  I'm going to re-post this as an independent thread so others can follow-up.  I also don't want to hijack the wishlist thread. . .
