Can you reproduce if the firewall is disabled ?

Comment 2 Eugene Saenko 2016-12-17 12:58:45 CET

Firewall is disabled:

# iptables -L
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination         

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination         

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination

Comment 3 Nicolas Chauvet 2016-12-17 13:54:07 CET

Is this a regression from a working vlc in the 3.0.0 branch ?
If not I would suggest to report to vlc upstream directly.
trac.videolan.org/vlc

Comment 4 Eugene Saenko 2016-12-17 14:14:43 CET

In F23 I used vlc-2.2.4-1.fc23 and all worked OK.
The problem began when I upgraded to F25. VLC didn't see upnp resources.
To solve this problem I decided make clean install. No positive result.

libupnp is compiled for ipv6 which breaks ipv4 support, please file your report against libupnp instead.
