serviio not avaliable (can't see) in android device

I have a 1.6.0 serviio server runing in a NAS4Free PC (inside a JAIL), all works ok for all my devices: I can see, play direct or play transcode, the files in my NAS correctly. Never have an error related to dlna, and I test in many SmartTV, android phones.
But for some strange reason in one device I can't see servio.
I have an old Samsung S5830L, have limited features and only can play SD (480p), rigth now is runing CM10.2 (andorid 4.0). I know this smartphone is old but I'm curios why can't see the serviio service.
I made some test to check if the device have dlna functions, I enabled temporaly other services to check this features:

S58030L -> Bullbe UPNP = all ok, can see, play the files in other android therminal (WiFi).
S58030L -> UPNP scaner = can see another dlna services (Smart TV, router TPlink w8980, bubble upnp, plex dlna) mixed WiFi and wired. BUT NO SERVIIO.
S58030L -> PLEX dlna = all ok, can see, play files (only SD) in this server (wired).
I made test with a lot of softwares but there is no way to see serviio in the s5830L.

Other WiFi devices are conecter to the tplink w8980 (140919) via WiFi and wire, and these devices allways work ok with serviio services without any issue.

Based in my test, I can sure that s5830L have dlna enabled, the w8980 work correct with dlna and serviio.

I have all my media in Nas4Free, and I really don't like the plex alternative because dlna is not fully implemented and have a lot of issues (for me), and plex app for the s5830L don't work correctly, so really don't know what to do. Also I want to keep serviio as my main and only dlna service because is a lot more stable.

Atached my LOG, when I try to connect S5830L, but can't see any realted to what cause this. Also restarted serviio, router and s5830L but I still can't see serviio

Any clue why cant see serviio in this S5830L ?

Thanks for any response.

Serviio client services are provided with Mediabrowser via your web browser and also on android by Serviigo or BubbleUPnP.

Re: serviio not avaliable (can't see) in android device

The GUI of buble is ugly (sorry but is true), but I don't prove this app in the S5830L yet. I really like the simple interface like "DG UPNP Player" (or similar). But none of this apps can conect to serviio from s5830L (but they can from s5830 to another dlna server).

I think that MediaBrowser web-based player is only avaliable for PRO licence (Is this true?), and rigth now I'm using serviio server in free edition.

But I think the important question for me is why those clients can't see serviio from S5830L, but other dlna server work normal in this device.

I think is a conbination of things in s5830L and something in my network, but I can find what, and I really apreciate any comment or similars experiences.

Best regards.
