Rygel media server doesn’t work properly

Hi.
From one day to another, Rygel media server doesn’t work properly. It starts, I can see my samsung smart tv connected to server, but my tv only shows generic video/audio/pictures folders instead of my shared folders. Without contents. I changed nothing in rygel preferences.

Thanks for your help.

Try: this.  It's in the AUR.

Universal Media Server is the best in class I have found.  I've tried many different servers and it always comes out on top in comparison.

Thanks, I'm trying it. But spanish subtitles doesn't work to me (rare characters instead of accent marks). I tried all settings subtitles but nothing.

Re: Rygel media server doesn’t work properly

In the options you can find a priority list for the subtitles.  The first one matched gets chosen so try to put the Spanish subtitles first in that box?

Edit: And the standard response for any font glyph issues: install ttf-dejavu and ttf-droid.

UPDATE: unistalling rygel, removing config file and reinstalling, now I can see my shared folders but no content inside.
any idea?
Thanks.
