Any problems with the newest Nero suite?

Post by kegobeer » Sat Nov 10, 2007 7:16 am

I just upgraded from Nero 7.xx to 8.1.1.0. Nero Home is now 3.1.0.0 and Showtime is now 4.1.0.0. After the upgrade, I can no longer stream videos from Twonky.

I have 4.4.2 installed on a hacked SimpleShare. I don't have another NAS to experiment upon, and I haven't had any chance to install 4.4.2 on a PC. I'm just wondering if anyone has had this problem.

I am also trying to get answers from Nero on this issue (I am still on v7), today Nero sent me this:

I'm sorry to tell you, that the behaviour of the Twonky server and Nero home was never been tested. That's why we can't guarantee it that it will work correctly.
We have no analysis what's the difference between Nero MediaHome and Twonky so we also can't give you a hint whats going wrong.
Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience that this may have caused.


Here is a link to my saga so far: http://my.nero.com/index.php?NCSS=a1015 ... 94974093#2

To me the difference is in how movies are presented by the two servers:

file1 is how Twink presents the file - file1=upnp://7076436f-6e65-1063-8074-00c0df2525dc/3$536870962$2013266357/LOTR%20-%201%20-%20Fellowship%20of%20the%20Ring.mp4

file 2 is how MediaHome presents the file - file2=upnp://4c283258-64b7-468c-9453-4f2aa2113cca/237d/LOTR%20-%201%20-%20Fellowship%20of%20the%20Ring.mp4.mp4

I'm going to do some more checking tonight before I contact either Nero or Twonky or both with some more evidence. I am also looking at the uPNP specs to try to find out a little more as both Twonky and Nero say they are ok (basically) and not at fault.

I think I may have it...

It looks like when Twonky & Intel present the movie the title tag only contains the name of the movie while Nero presents the title including the file extension.
