Looks like you need the --proxy option to dlnap.py when playing local files.

Looks like you need the --proxy option to dlnap.py when playing local files.

I will give it a try... But the problem also occurs when on the same host for dlna.py and gmedia process

[mill1000]

It will still likely be needed. As the log says /root/frankie.mp3 is not a valid URI. To play local files gstreamer's playbin requires a URI like file:///root/frankie.mp3. But I doubt dlnap.py will send that because it probably assumes the renderer and itself are on different systems.
