The logs confirm my suspicions. The PVRX2 MVP Server is only receiving one of the two connections it needs. It is not getting the connection that is needed to stream media. This is the exact same behaviour that other users resolved with changes to their firewall settings.
You should also check the built in Windows firewall. Many users thought they werent running it, and werent aware that a Windows Update had reenabled it.
If AVG anti-virus is the sort of software that normally popups up questions to ask if an application has permissions to do specific things, then you're probably not seeing these popups since the MVP server runs in a different desktop session (as part of a background service).
You could try manually running pvrx2.exe with the "-mvpmode" command line parameter. This runs a server instance in your session, and hopefully the AVG software will then show you these permission prompts.
