I have a Samsung Smart TV and Universal Media Server on my PC and a wired network around my house.

Home plug in wall of bedroom connected to port of switch in room, switch connected to Ethernet Port. TV in lounge connected via Ethernet o switch, switch connected to router via Ethernet cable.

I installed and set up Universal Media Server on my PC which has found my TV (Samsung) but when I go to SOURCE on my TV, I am unable to find Universal Media Streamer.

Can anyone help me as its really anoying

Wouldn't have thought that "Source" would be the right place to look?
Source usually lists the devices connected by HDMI, Scart etc. (At least it does on my non-Smart Samsung).

It would be more likely an app on the TV that is looking for media over your home network through DLNA. Might be named "Allshare" or something like that.
