Hi,

My MyBook Live LED keeps flashing green since I last did a re-scan of the shared folders and a rebuild of the database. It has been like this since a few days now... I also hear the disk constantly reading and/or writing even if I reboot the device.

The NAS seems to be working, but somewhat differently though. When I access the NAS as a media server via the menu of my TV, it has a different structure than I'm used to. It now starts with:
- 'legacyTwonkyDefault Library at MyBook Live'
- Music/Photos/Videos
- .../.../.../by Folder/.../...
- DataVolume/shares

The version my Twonky Server has is 7.0.9 I installed that beginning of 2013 (Phibertron told me howto):
"
/etc/init.d/twonky stop
cd /usr/local/
mv twonkymedia-5 twonkymedia-5.1.9
mkdir twonkymedia-5
cd twonkymedia-5
wget http://www.twonkyforum.com/downloads/7. ... -7.0.9.zip
unzip twonky-powerpc-glibc-2.2.5-special-7.0.9.zip
mv twonkystarter twonkymedia
mv /usr/local/sbin/writeTwonkyContentDir.sh /usr/local/sbin/writeTwonkyContentDir.sh.old
/etc/init.d/twonky start
"

Is there anything I can do to solve this? Please help

Many thanks! Cheers, Tom

The name 'legacyTwonkyDefault Library at MyBook Live'
is normal for a default install, you can change this to be whatever you want
in the twonky web interface settings, not the wd web interface
or with an rpc call

Code: Select all

http://x.x.x.x:9000/rpc/set_option?friendlyname=mynewnasnamehere

The DataVolume/shares
is because the original twonky had these settings

contentbase=/shares
contentdir=+A|/Public

and a default install of twonky has these as default

contentbase=/
contentdir=+A|/

In the guide, I had on the other site, I made note that one should adjust there shares
in the Twonky Web Interface, to avoid the nas from scanning literally the entire nas
which is probably why its got the flashing light, as its probably stuck somewhere

you can change these settings with rpc calls

Code: Select all

http://x.x.x.x:9000/rpc/set_option?contentbase=/shares
http://x.x.x.x:9000/rpc/set_option?contentdir=+A|/Public
http://x.x.x.x:9000/rpc/set_all

you can adjust the shares in the twonky web interface to be more granular now if you want
and then you should now do a rebuild

Well it looks like that was it. I forgot all about the Twonky Server webinterface (:9000).

The counters in the statuswindow were at one time 0 - 0 - 0, and when I added folder it began to rebuild the database itself, probably because the rebuild interval was set to minus 1.

Thanks again Phibertron, you were a great help!

Best regards, Tom
