Twonky Forum

Thanks for the clarification
that's a lot of testing

@rm3086

I have copies of them here
https://onedrive.live.com/?cid=FE1D7E98 ... MlDUzNtCqg

These are the x64 builds that I know of

twonky-x86-64-glibc-2.9-7.2.7.zip
twonky-x86-64-glibc-2.9-7.2.8.zip
twonky-x86-64-glibc-2.9-7.3-RC4.zip

Not sure if when you were doing your tests
that you weren't looking at the "By Folder" ?
because it has not sorting by default

<container name='byfolder' id='music/folders'
<container buildon='res' albumart='1'
</container>

On the Windows version of Twonky Server 7.2.8 If one stops the twonkyproxy service from the services console or the command line with a net stop they will get a window popup with this error message twonkyproxy.exe encountered a problem and needed to close. szAppName : twonkyproxy.exe szAppVer : 0.0....

bummer, I'll peek around the web and see what others have been able to accomplish I would see if contacting zyxel might help, probably not But here is something to ponder, disable the built in twonky, install Fun Plug, install and run your own version of twonky via fun plug abilities But it wouldn't...

I download media:connect from the appstore onto an iphone
and checked to see what twonky woiuld detect it as
I saw the "-/-" thing, very odd indeed
But, I wasn't able to reproduce the issue you are having
Im using Twonky Server 7.2.8

chmod isn't going to cut it, as the file system is mounted as read only from sysdisk.img In that post I referenced they are able to mount it as RW like this look at the last 5 posts mkdir /tmp/loop0 mount /dev/loop0 /tmp/loop0 -o rw But..... There is most likely as script like the referenced in that...

Im inclined to agree that it is the app that is the issue As an example, On my Panasonic tv, I have to add this to its clinet profile to make it honor the sort order given to it, and not the one the tv requests to twonky <Quirk>IGNORESORT</Quirk> The '-/-' as Media Receiver Type isn't actually anyth...

someone else has the same issue
http://forum.nas-central.org/viewtopic.php?f=249&t=9843

The nas is using a read only image for those folders
As an Example of what going look at this thread

in iOS, tracks sorted alphabetically. (I tried three different iOS players -- VLC, AVPlayerHD, MoliPlayer HD -- and each exhibited the same behaviour.) If you go to the web interface for twonky under sharing http://x.x.x.x:9000/#sharing When you look under " Media Receivers" Can determine what Twon...

I get a blank page in return to the url query . Does this mean the parameter is undefined? Other parameteres (e.g. nicrestart) deliver expected values. Yup it means the value was undefined, as in it had no value assinged I added a clearcacheonrestart 0 to the start command. Now I get a 0. But start...

being logged in as root I might be in "/usr/local/twonky/resources/devicedb/Sony" or "/usr/local/twonkyserver/resources/devicedb/Sony" The file you are looking to rename is probably one of these If your device is detected as "Sony Blu-Ray Player" then its "Sony_Blu-Ray_Home_Theater.xml" If your devi...

The Activity Status is still broken However, I did discover more about these two settings which seem to effect the "/rpc/stream_info" results # Expire peristent devices inactive for more than this period (in days) (0 to suppress expiry) pdbexpiretime=14 # Set to non-zero to disable persistent connec...

Just a thought, what is "clearcacheonrestart" set to?

In regards to multiple instances Observations with multiple instances of Twonky Server 7 http://twonkyforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=11135 One would have to modify this file "/share/HDA_DATA/.qpkg/TwonkyMedia/twonkymedia6.sh" and make a duplicate of this line and modify it to be used for the second i...

In regards to filtering in the navtree, taken from "TMS-View-Configuration.pdf" 3.4.1.1 Filtering With the filteron property, items that are allowed within a named container can be restricted. In the example above filteron='pv:highrated' would limit the music tracks in the music folder to those that...

Another solution would be to run 2 instances of the server
one for mp3 and one for flac

What version of twonky server are you using and what is it running on? Your example would be difficult/impossible to pull off without sacrificing certain tags to be used for filtering and even then it would fall apart when they weren't present However, The following should/might be possible, without...

if you are able to get in
on the nas go to the twonky devicedb sony folder where the client profiles are located
and then rename the extension from .xml to .old or dot whatever you want, just not .xml
restart the server for changes to take effect

thanks for looking at that, didn't know they linked it
If I can think of anything to try I'll pass it along

Prior to Twonky Server 7.2.x I think most of us had a handle on what "Activity Status" of streaming and not streaming meant and when one would or would not see it, and taking into account client buffering Twonky Server 7.2.7 - rpc/stream_info now contains information on device's online state Twonky ...

oh yeah that stuff, almost forgot about that stuff

I was doing some things with 7.2.8 and 7.3 and noticed this from a get_all http://x.x.x.x:9000/rpc/get_all mediafusionserverurl=http://api.twonky.com what s interesting is, its not in the ini file it will work from a get_option and returns http://api.twonky.com /rpc/get_option?mediafusionserverurl b...

WOW, nice find!

I also had problems with 7.3 doing permanent requests out to the internet I'll assume you are talking about using http links in a playlist? If yes then that was a known issue with 7.3, if not, no idea... However company wise a have a bad feeling about Twonky. No idea where they are heading, but see...

You can see that the files are being extracted during the install procedure from this install log Output folder: C:\Program Files\Twonky\TwonkyServer\license Extract: twonky.dat Extract: twonky.license Remove folder: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\TwonkyServer\ Create folder: C...

I googled qnap /etc/init.d twonky
and discovered this

http://forum.qnap.com/viewtopic.php?p=290584

which tells me that /etc/init.d/twonkymedia6.sh might exist on your nas

you noted that you are doing this /share/HDA_DATA/.qpkg/TwonkyMedia/twonkymedia6.sh stop /share/HDA_DATA/.qpkg/TwonkyMedia/twonkymedia6.sh start but I wonder if twonky is also being started or stopped by the qnap from somewhere else, like it is on other nas's I know its possible to run apps from oth...

On all of the Windows version of Twonky Server 7.2.x and 7.3 there is an issue with the Twonky appdata directory that could cause the server to not start NOTE: I am NOT seeing this issue on the NAS builds If the twonky appdata directory is empty or does not exist, the server will not start correctly...

At present the Xbox One does not have a built in DLNA client But one can push content to it with Twonky Beam or PlayTo However... Prior to Twonky Server 7.3.x there was no client profile for the Xbox One So the odds of getting to work with the Xbox One were hit or miss Kind of odd, but even the clie...

This solution is not for files that end with an [*], that is a twonkys way of showing a bad file On the PS3, videos have always shown an * at the end of the file name This is what sony has to say about it http://manuals.playstation.net/document/en/ps3/3_15/settings/connectdlna.html (near the bottom ...

There are some things that can be done, but... To do them one has to be able to SSH into the NAS so that some twonky config changes could be made Zyxel, does not make being able to SSH into the nas easy This is what I googled on gaining SSH access to the nas http://zyxel.nas-central.org/wiki/SSH_ser...

I tested using twonky-powerpc-glibc-2.2.5-7.2.8.zip on my WD MBL
and it worked as expected

I suspect that its either a qnap nas specific issue
or something to do with the way its being started stopped and or restarted

twonky has seemed to fallen off the face of the earth
if they climb back up, maybe well see a newer version that might address the issue

sounds like a bug to me

I haven't tested on my nas yet

though I did do a test on a windows vm using 7.2.8
my previous results still appear to work as intended

when you did your tests on the nas
what approach did you use to stop and start the service?

I know the qpkg contains a bunch of ini files for twonky
when you looked at the ini file you looked at
was it this one "cmdline 6:/etc/config/twonkyvision-mediaserver6.ini"

I havent touched on this topic in a few years
but I will see what the windows and debian for my wd nas do
and let you know

only as an example, as your nas will be using something different, when one looks at the twonky.sh, you will see this section in it echo -n "Starting $TWONKYSRV ... " "$TWONKYSRV" rc_status -v To make it run two instances, it would look like this echo -n "Starting $TWONKYSRV ... " "$TWONKYSRV" -inst...

I used to have more on the topic on the other site, These are the threads I dug up here on the topic Twonky (How to run multiple instances with custom Navtree's) http://twonkyforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=9408 Observations with multiple instances of Twonky Server 7 http://twonkyforum.com/viewtopic.p...

Good sleuthing I have a hunch, that the above is a the crux of it all, and not the sleep thing, basically a bad handshake in that its something to do with the way twonky is dealing with the Samsung and possibly the media type being presented the nas builds are different in some ways, but I wonder if...

they may have changed the interface and its options in the newer models To do the below on the WDMC, you would need to create a cron job or have something else on the network, do you what you would be doing manually to wake it up but that would involve leaving something else on to so that so the cro...

Your Welcome

good troubleshooting tactics =) I think that in addition to this possible caching thing, I vaguely remember somewhere on the Samsungs TV that the server itself becomes cached/sticky in the past I kind of remember people having to go somewhere in the TV's menu tree and delete the twonky server, for i...

As for not getting any replies, that sucks

As for your license key issue
If your key is a valid key, take a look at this thread
it might help

Do try disabling the sleep mode and see if it fairs any better
if doing that helps, there maybe other tactics we can use to wake up the nas when needed

Your Welcome

Your Welcome Sadly there is no manual to decipher the error codes In this scenario, they would mean more to the developers than us for the most part Just a guess, but I think that since the Error: 115 Operation now in progress comes right after the handleConnections : upnp_cp_resubscribe CP received...

The one way I know of beaming from Twonky Server other than from the web interface or the twonky beam app is to use a the a url to built in beam of 7.x.x or greater x.x.x.x:9000/beam?renderer=[BOOKMARK]&url=[URL] where [BOOKMARK] is the twonky boomark or ip address of the client where [URL] is the u...
