Thomson TV is not recognized

Post by fc3328 » Thu Nov 20, 2014 9:56 pm

Hi all,

My twonky server is started on a D Link DNS 320 (linux)

After searching this forum I haven't found any solution to my issue.

Twonky server works perfectly with my samsung TV (as it is recognizes as Samsung Smart TV), but no videos can be seen on my Thomson tv.

The Thomson TV is not recognized as a Media Receiver Type and is specified as -/-

I think I should have to create a devicedb xml file for the Thomson TV but I don't know how to do ? (DLNA version, etc...)

Can someone could help me to do this, or explain me where to find the informations and how to create the file.

Help would be appreciated !

Thanks a lot

see if "Generic DLNA 1.0" or "Generic Media Receiver" work

Sure one can try an try different profiles, or even attempt to create one
But I think you should get the exact model number of the tv
and then contact twonky via email support@twonky.com or help@twonky.com
they may be able to help in figuring out what I would need to be

Thanks philbertron

I've already tried the "Generic DLNA 1.0" or "Generic Media Receiver" but it doesn't work.

I've just sent an email to the Twonky support, let's wait now
