Twonly not adding AVI and MPG video to database

Post by vonedaddy » Fri Feb 27, 2009 4:28 pm

I just installed Twonky Media Trial on my Windows Vista PC. I have a HUGE media library so I allowed it to scan overnight. It has found all 30,000 + songs without an issue. It also added all my Photos (JPG) without an issue. But for some reason it will not add my movie files which are all in AVI or MPG.

Can someone please help? I was really looking forward to having a trouble free media server.

I came here for this exact same problem. Has anyone found a solution to this yet?

Ok, got it working....I have a pretty big music collection (38000+ files) and I think that's what messed it up. I removed all the shared folders (music, photo, video), rebuilt the database, and then added each folder back starting with the smallest (video). It found all my video files with no problem! After that I added photo and then music with no problems.
