DVS not appearing in Dante Controller on Windows

If you’re not seeing DVS appearing within Dante Controller, it’s possible that port 4440 is in use by another application

Run CMD with admin rights, and check what 4440 port is used for:
netstat -a -o -p UDP | findstr 4440

Then, check what app is behind this PID:
tasklist | findstr 892

If it’s something different than apec app, you can use Task manager to close application, and restart DVS. More about that (with screenshots) can be found below.

Second way

Run CMD as admin, and run:
netstat -a -o -p UDP

Then, find application using 4440 on the list:

In Task Manager > Details > Find application using PID *

The above example shows that the Dante APEC is using this port, which is correct. If the application using this PID is something other than AP, the service will need to end/application stopped.

Once ended, restart DVS and this should then show in the Dante Controller.
