Mediatomb does not appear...

I'm still trying to get MediaTomb working from Windows.
I can reach the interface nicely on //bubba:49152/ but no program seems to be able to find it.
Until now I have found two programs that should be able to use uPNP from windows:

1. XBMC
2. Cidero

Both do not connect to MediaTomb, but at least Cidero can find it, the log shows this:

Maybe someone can help me with that? Is there something wrong with the settings in MediaTomb?

Hi
I have no experience with the programs you try to use.
But wanted to share with you that you can also use iTunes.
You do need a rendezvous proxy

but then it works great

Thanks for the suggestion, Eek.
I use the FireFly client for FireFly instead of iTunes (I don't like Itunes). Maybe that will work as well using the rendezvouz proxy...

Anyone who knows what the messages in the first post mean??

I have found the problem!!
Bubba got a new ip-address recently. It used to be 192.168.1.50, but now it is 192.168.1.52. When studying the output of Cidero, I suddenly noticed it was trying to connect to 192.168.1.50. But why?
From Bubba's admin I switched off Mediatomb, waited a minute or so and switched it on again. That worked!
Now Mediatomb can be found from my Windows machine. I only wounder why Mediatomb still broadcasted the old IP-address....
