Disable multicast/DLNA?

I have a very unconventional network setup and serviio doesn't much seem to like it. It constantly complains about
  Code:
2026-02-27T19:57:00,811 ERROR [DiscoverySSDPMessageListener] Cannot open multicast socket,will try again
java.io.IOException: No network inferface found for IP 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1


Which isn't that surprising to me, thing is, it never gives up on this goal of acquiring a multicast socket and I don't actually need the DLNA or multicast functionality at all, I use it entirely for the web interface and web streaming, is there some way to just disable the DLNA functionality?

Without DLNA functionality, what possible use is Serviio for you? Besides, you have to have an IP address of some sort for your web access to function on any computer other than the one Serviio is installed on. Can't you select the proper network connection on the Serviio control panel at the bottom of the Status tab? How can you possibly make it work without an IP address (v4 or v6)? I know a fair amount about networking, and I'd be curious to hear more about your 'unconventional' configuration.
