MacBook Pro sees Viera but Viera says: DLNA server not found

This is quite frustrating. Finally got Serviio to detect my new Panasonic Viera Plasma, however when I go to Viera Tools on the TV, it tells me there is no DLNA server found. Not much useful information on these postings I'm afraid. Is there anyone who can help me get the MacBook Pro to stream wirelessly to the Viera?

FAQ wrote:This could be caused by you having multiple IP addresses on the machine and Serviio binding to a wrong one. Insert IP address of the machine running Serviio into 'Bound IP address' field in Network Settings section in the console


Also please run the commands in this wiki and post the information here: http://wiki.serviio.org/doku.php?id=portinfo_mac

Tried that before I got into this discussion. IP address for MacBook is entered correctly in "bound IP address" box. After entering that, my Macbook recognized my Viera, but the TV still sees "no server."

I clicked on the Wiki link, but have no idea what it's for or what you're asking me to do on it.

Can you post your serviio.log file?

Not seeing any settings or commands on the Serviio Console to find a log file.

Please run these 3 commands from your mac and post the information here.

wiki wrote:so in the case of serviio:

sudo lsof -i -P | grep LISTEN
sudo lsof -i udp:1900
sudo lsof -i tcp:8895

are the one you maybe asked to run.

Sorry, but again, I have no clue what you mean.

I read all these commands on the Wiki before. In my 20 years of owning a Mac I don't think I've ever "run a command." If the only way to get this program to work is to learn programming language, I'd better seek another solution.
