Serviio

Hi. I checked but couldn't find this exact questions so I am asking it myself.
I have installed Serviio and had the 15 day pro trial which worked fine. I installed the software on my Windows PC, where I have a portable hard drive attached with my media on it. The trial ended yesterday, and now today My Samsung smart TV, Roku3, and also ServiiDroid android app all stopped seeing the Serviio server. I tried uninstalling and then re installing serviio on my PC, but it did not help.

I was debating purchasing the full version, but If I cant get the free one to work, it makes me wonder if there is some issue with my setup or hardware and if the paid version will fix it.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

No, the paid version is primarily to have access to the Media Browser. To my knowledge, there's little to no other functionality difference.

For all of those devices to suddenly stop seeing it, there's something happening with the connection. Possibly the Windows firewall started blocking it, your anti-virus is blocking, or something on your network has changed. Does your Windows computer have a static IP address? How about your players? Is everything using Wi-Fi, or are some things wired?
