The setup took only 5 minutes.
Note that each subfolders under media_dir has to have a mode 775.
On Android BubbleUPnP, Go to Library > Your DLNA. Media -> Pictures -> Folders or Media -> Video -> Folders. The streaming is smooth compared to using say VLC/ES File Explorer to play media files.
Minidlna can not sync media files automatically. We need to run cron jobs to achieve it.

sudo apt-get remove --auto-remove minidlna
