As a P.S. to the above both the server and the console app debug logs indicate it's not a Java issue since they are both functioning normally except for (maybe UPNP).
It seems somewhat likely that it might be something to do with setting up a UPNP task and communicating through the en0 port.

This is Mountain Lion 10.8.5 we're talking about. Were there any changes wrt using ethernet? Different timeouts for ports or anything like that?
I didn't see anything mentioned in the What's New notes.
Further info I have gleaned from the logs.
Apparently there is a multicast search message broadcast from eno at 192.168.2.10
On Lion it gets a response from the Renderer a.k.a. TV with DLNA at 192.158.2.15
But on Mountain Lion no response within the timeout which is = 0.

So how is it that the identical code works on Lion but not on ML?
It's years since I did any networking stuff and that was on IBM mainframes so my knowledge for this environment is nil.

Suggestions? So far the authors have not replied to my postings in their forum.

To check things I booted into Lion.

In OS X Lion 10.7.5 the System Preferences Security Firewall Options settings DID HAVE a checkmark in the box to
"Automatically allow signed software to receive incoming connections"
and there was NO checkmark in the box to
"Enable stealth mode"

In OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.5 this is reversed.
I did not change these settings so they must be from the original install.

I have now explicitly allowed Serviio and Serviio Console to Accept incoming connections.
They did show up as items in the Firewall Options settings.

I noticed Skype is allowed incoming connections and I sure didn't do anything to permit that.
Although it's OK with me as I have only used it twice in my lifetime the 2nd time last week.
