Twonky x265 codec

Post by Nikecow » Tue Jan 12, 2016 3:30 pm

Hello guys,

I run a twonky 8.1.2. server on my MyBook Live. However I can't seem to play x265 HEVC formats.

Will there be any support for this codec in the future?

Hi Nikecow,

Twonky Server already supports H.265 since version 8.1. If you see the files in the media navigation on your media player, Twonky is not the problem. If they don't play, it's simply possible that your player does not support H.265.

Best regards,
Marco

Hello Marco

I wasn't aware that the player also needed to support the codecs.

I just found out that my TV (Samsung UE46F7000) apparently does not support x265.
Learned something new today :mrgreen:

Thanks for your reply.
