Volumio - Browsing Minimserver - no search result

[springmaus]

I am running Volumio on a raspberry pi. There is another raspi which is running minimserver. In Volumio, Minimserver is detected (as a server in the local network) However, if I try volumio's search function it always gets "no results" ?

Does anybody has an idea?

If I remember well, I don’t use Volumio anymore, you should find in Volumio configuration the option to enable UPNP search. Search it on the Volumio “client”, not the one running MinimServer

... sorry to cannot be more precise, hope this can help

Could it be that you need to enable the following.

Browse your DLNA\UPNP Music: you can activate UPNP \ DLNA music indexing, just go to settings, and activate the UPNP indexing service. This will index all the tunes served by DLNA Servers. This is not enabled by defaults, since it will take a lot of time to Volumio to index all your tunes.

In the settings I activated DLNA browsing, and UPNP renderer. There is no other option available or any additional setting (switch on: show all properties)
When I select one of the server e.g. minimserver and choose e.g. artist, I see that browsing is working, there is a green progress bar at the top and after finishing a (long) list of artists comes up.
However, it is not possible to search within this list - it shows always no results - The only remaining way is to scroll manually thru the (long) list and do a manual selection (that is not the way I am looking for)
Again thanks for the reply

There was a commit to Volumio in 2017 titled "Disable UPnP Search". I am not sure about the significance of this.

.... should the DLNA\UPNP Browser option ...

Hi Simoncn, i opened index.js in notepad and I was able to indentify the section of code you are referring to. It differs a bit. Anyway, it is available which to me means the query function should work. (I am, not a developer and I just have a vague idea what this code is doing) - Thanks for your hint
