I couldn't reproduce the issue, but based on your log the problem seems to be in files that needs to be transcoded to another format. e.g. file \\lowlander01\Qmultimedia\Music\N\Nelly\[2004] Suit\Nelly; Avery Storm; Mase - 08 - In My Life.mp3 is encoding to G:\MediaMonkey_Temp\UPnP_Cache\53113.MP3 on the fly. The download is faster than actual file conversion and file is downloaded only as partially converted. |
|
Now, I reproduced it, it happens when multiple files (that needs conversion) are downloaded at once (6 in my case). The files are converted only partially also in the temporary directory! |
|
After some debugging I found that it was intended behaviour. If we found that we are converting another file for this DLNA client, we terminate the conversion and start conversion of the next file. The rationale for this was that DLNA clients are usually used for playback and that if another file is initiated for download then it means that the file is played instead of the previous and thus the previous can be throw away. But as we can see, in this situation MMW wants to download several files at once. So I allowed the mult. file conversion for one DLNA client in build 1633. |
