Twonky Server 8.2 can't play music in browser

Hi,
I have a Zyxel NAS326 with Twonky Server 8.2 at home. I want to listen to my music at work. I can open my NAS at work and I can see all songs but they don't want to play. Does someone has any experience with this?
Thanks!

I'm in the same boat. Running Twonky Server 8.2.1 on my QNAP TS-251 (firmware up to date). Twonky finished scanning everything.
Whenever I click on an album or song to play in my browser (Chrome, also up to date), I get the error: "Can not beam to device. Try to open the media content in a new browser window using another player." If I click OK, it opens up a new tab trying to play the file, but it tries to access the file from the localhost (
http://127.0.0.1:9000/...) instead of the QNAP's IP. If I change the IP to the QNAP's public/static IP, I can play the file directly, but not through the Twonky interface, just through Chrome's audio file player.
I know Twonky is working somewhat correctly though because I can access it through 8player on my iPhone. Any ideas what's going on? Is it maybe something with the browser/browser interface?
