    hello! if i connect my zidoo over WiFi to my networ, i can just see content of attached to zidoo hdd's but not play it on any TV over DLNA (UPNP) server
    But if i connect zidoo over LAN, everething became OK, and DLNA content became playable
    as i found after few reserch, thats happend becouse in openwrt at dlna configuration page NO wlan0 (wifi) interface added.
    it must be added over ssh in /etc/init.d/minidlna
    but i can't found instruction for this.
    that's very important issue, and i dont understand why zidoo didn't fix this issue still

    You may try editing /etc/config/minidlna and changing eth0 into wlan0.
    config minidlna 'config'
    option port '8200'
    option friendly_name 'OpenWrt DLNA Server'
    option db_dir '/var/run/minidlna'
    option log_dir '/var/log'
    option inotify '1'
    option notify_interval '900'
    option serial '12345678'
    option model_number '1'
    option root_container '.'
    list media_dir '/mnt'
    option album_art_names 'Cover.jpg/cover.jpg/AlbumArtSmall.jpg/albumartsmall.jpg/AlbumArt.jpg/albumart.jpg/Album.jpg/album.jpg/Folder.jpg/folder.jpg/Thumb.jpg/thumb.jpg'
    option enabled '1'
    option interface 'eth0' ==============>'wlan0'

    I didn't try it yet.

    I just tried. Both wifi and Lan are works.
    modify the config like this
    root@OpenWrt:/etc/config# cat minidlna

    config minidlna 'config'
    option port '8200'
    option friendly_name 'OpenWrt DLNA Server'
    option db_dir '/var/run/minidlna'
    option log_dir '/var/log'
    option inotify '1'
    option notify_interval '900'
    option serial '12345678'
    option model_number '1'
    option root_container '.'
    list media_dir '/mnt'
    option album_art_names 'Cover.jpg/cover.jpg/AlbumArtSmall.jpg/albumartsmall.jpg/AlbumArt.jpg/albumart.jpg/Album.jpg/album.jpg/Folder.jpg/folder.jpg/Thumb.jpg/thumb.jpg'
    option enabled '1'
    option interface 'eth0,wlan0'

    After any changes in the settings DLNA, the config will change again!

    But there is another way:
    editing /etc/init.d/minidlna
    Replace this string
    minidlna_cfg_append "network_interface=$interface"
    with this
    minidlna_cfg_append "network_interface=eth0,wlan0"
    save file
    and disable and enable dlna for activate new config.

    Hi, each time I tried to do this with winscp I got an error:
    scp: /etc/init.d/minidlna: No space left on device

    Can you tell me how to do this in details?
