Running into the same or very similar issue with our Roku. We have used Roku Media Player to connect to our Windows Media Player for a couple of years now. Lately (last few weeks) when I open up Roku Media Player and try to download our music a message comes up on Roku Media player "connecting to DLNA Media Server" but then it never connects. Windows Media Player is set to "automatically allow devices to play my media" under "streaming options". This is the way it has always been for almost two years and seldom did we have any issues. Now I have been repeatedly trying it for over a week now and no satisfactory results. I have uninstalled Roku Media Player and reinstalled a couple of times in the last week and nothing changes. I guess I am back to my old Sony Walkman. Disappointing that with all our technology today I can't use Roku to play my music from any of my media players on my computer. I guess its like everything else in our world. It is all about money, control and power.
