download the new for android VLC Media Player 3.0.20

It would be nice if this issue could be resolved.The VideoLAN project does not issue security advisories Has anyone else seen this issue with the current version of VLC 3.0.16-2 ? If so is there a workaround? The minidlna server is certainly working since the files are playable on android devices in the local network, and also on a browser on the laptop I can open a tab on server-name:8200 and the available files are listed as well as currently connected devices. This issue was seen with vlc some time ago and there are posts in other forums where users reported this in the past with earlier versions of VLC. I have a firewall with port 1900 open for both udp and tcp, but turning off the firewall makes no difference. However on my laptop running VLC, and going to Local Network and clicking on Universal PlugnPlay gices a 4-segment icon that looks like it is discovering upnp servers but after a minute or so disappears to leave a blank window with no server and no files listed.

The vlc application on my phone sees the server without any problems at all, and will play the videos contained in the directories on the server.

I have recently set up a small minidlna server with a set of videos (arch linux).
