Double menu's

Post by Meelobee » Thu Oct 09, 2008 12:56 pm

Hi,

I've been using Twonky for a while now and it works great, but there is one small thing that bugs me.

When I browse to a video in the XMB I select:

Video, Twonky media server, and then I have to select video again. (it lists audio, photo & video)

Is it possible to remove the second choises? These are kinda redundant because I allready selected Video in the main XMB menu.

I dont know the definative answer to this but I suspect the answer is "NO"

If I am correct it is probably because Twonky is designed for use by multipl clients rather than just the PS3. So the fact you have selected Video in the XMB is a function of the PS3 rather than Twonky.

if anyone does know the answer to this I would like to know although it's not a major problem it is a "niggle"

That's what I thought, It's probably hard coded in the PS3.

Well if someone knows a solution anyway, please let me (us) know :)

From my point, seems that should by 50% ps3 and 50% mediaserver

I think that is cause by the fact that your ps3 reads all the folder shared ables to have contene from your media server, and you have 3 at least. I mean no content filter is done by ps3 before enter on each...

But is my opinion...
