WHICH Linux-DLNA-server work without problems?

[D6900]

I am looking for a dlna server, which support video streams from an ip camera. The dlna server should be tested first on a linux pc and if this works, installed on an openwrt-router.

As a 1st try, minidlna worked immediately with my Samsung PS51D6900DSXZG, but minidlna doesn't support ip cameras. Ushare should support ip cameras, but it doesn't work with my tv, the mkv-files are listed, but cannot be displayed. So is there a way to get ushare work.

Which dlna-server work without problems with Samsung TV?

check for xupnpd dlna server. It supports IPTV streaming, don`t wonder if it makes you happy too

EDIT. oops, xupnpd is same ushare...

My ip camera is on 192.168.178.61 e.g. and I would like to see the videostram with my Samsung TV. My linux pc with xupnpd is on 192.168.178.100

minidlna was also working well for me, however i did no try live streams with it

[D6900]

And that's the problem exactly, minidlna doesn't support live streams (or I don't know how to configure it)

[trex2000]

after you build and install xupnpd, you should start it.
Then you can access it from a browser where you can add streams to it.
I have it running but never tried a live stream with it.
I prefer minidlna, because I don't use live streams.
If I have time, I can try it for you and will come back with updates.

[juusso]

How do you get your stream now?
What app do you use to get live streams from your camera?
What are parameters of this stream (take some record and check with media info tool).
what is direct link to the stream (not IP)?
