Problem with ReadyDLNA on Netgear WNDR4300 router not showing all shows on USB drive

Is anyone using the Tivo storage expansion feature on a Netgear WNDR4300 router with an attached USB external hard drive?



I'm having some problems getting this feature to be fully functional, and was wondering if anyone else had seen similar problems.



I currently have a Tivo Roamio Pro. I recently upgraded my router to the Netgear WNDR4300, and want to take advantage of its built-in Tivo compatible DLNA server to access shows stored on a USB external hard drive. I have a USB external hard drive onto which I had previously transferred shows from a Tivo using Tivo Desktop. I have connected the hard drive to the router's USB port and enabled the ReadyDLNA server and Tivo compatibility mode in the router. The hard drive shows up correctly in the router's admin web page, and my PC can see the hard drive (and all the files on it) through the network. The Tivo can see the router in 'My Shows' as a server named 'ReadyDLNA: WNDR4300'. But when I select the ReadyDLNA server, the list of shows it displays from the hard drive is incomplete - about 10-20% of the shows on the hard drive don't show up on the list on the Tivo.



I have verified that WNDR4300 has the latest firmware from Netgear. I copied several of the shows onto a different USB external hard drive and connected it to the router, and get the same results - the shows that were found on the 1st hard drive were also found on the 2nd hard drive, and the shows that were not found on the 1st hard drive were also not found on the 2nd hard drive. When I connect the USB hard drive to a PC running Tivo Desk top, the Tivo can see the PC just fine, and will display all the shows on the hard drive.



Many of the shows were originally transferred from a different Tivo onto the hard drive, and most (but not all) of these show up on the 'My Shows' when the hard drive is connected to the WNDR4300 router. However, shows that I have tranferred off my current Roamio do not show up when the hard disk is connected to the router (but they do show up when connected to the PC running Tivo Desktop).



My current version of Tivo Desktop is 2.8.3 (the free version, with patch installed). I don't know if it matters, but all the shows are in the same folder named 'Tivo' on the hard drive.



Anybody have any ideas on why the files for some shows can't be found by the WNDR4300 ReadyDLNA server?
