Could you elaborate ? Do you use Neutron as DLNA renderer and the album art isn't show in the Neutron app ? Or do you stream from Neutron to a DLNA renderer and would expect to see the album art there ?

Yes,Second one.I want to stream from Neutron to a DLNA/UPnP renderer and want to expect to see the album art there.In fact i have enabled UPnP on Kodi and redirecting the neutron output to it from option "Output To" in settings of Neutron.Everything is playing well in kodi along with audio but album art which is present in the song in ID3 tag is not displaying.When i render through BubbleUPnP to kodi the album art is displaying.

These messages seem to occurr regurlarly on KODI, so there's nothing to learn from. I suggest you contact neutronmp@gmail.com and ask them for advice.

Contacted Neutron support and i got the following reply...

Output To send endless PCM stream (with all DSP applied - EQ, other
effects) via HTTP using UPnP/DLNA protocol but this protocol does not
allow to modify stream's metadata without interruption (reconnection).
BubbleUPnP provides just an URL to a music file therefore UPnP
renderer can read its metadata.

also see Wikipedia : List of UPnP AV media servers and clients
Neutron Music Player, a cross platform UPnP/DLNA client which is able to read music files from UPnP/DLNA Media Server or send processed audio to UPnP/DLNA Media Renderer as an endless stream.
So it would seem that Neutron isn't supposed to act only as a dlna controller.
