Hi all,
when my streaming client attaches to my twonkymedia server, it shows three topics: "pictures", "music" and "video". It only can play music so I would like to get rid of this navigation level. I could not find anything in the adminstrative webfront end of my twonkymedia server, so may be, someone here knows, how to do it (or how to tweak the sources .
Best regards,
Ralf

Same here - this is really annoying - I have several clients, none of which can deal with photos and videos - please help.

Hi Guys,
actually there is an option to at least get rid of the "Music, Video, Pictures" level for audio-only devices:
It is under "Endgeräte". You have to choose "Generic Music Only Receiver" for this.
This way, only the Music folder's content is available for the client.
Unfortunately this feature is not working in 4.4.4 due a severe device detection bug (happened when TV changed from IP-based to MAC-address based client detection in RC2!).
And why I agree, it would be even better if one could disable the -ALL- feature, I first of all like to have it for ALL folders (it isn't available for some folders in Pictures, see also my posting at http://www.twonkyforum.com/viewtopic.ph ... highlight=).
But first we need to have the Twonky-guys being back in this forum...

Hey, great, this "Generic music only receiver" settings works for me, on TM 4.4.2 - thanks !!
And unless someone convinces me that 4.4.4 is so much better, I won't migrate.

Werner

You can also:
1) Set navigation tree to 'custom'
2) navigate to the 'Naming' section on the left hand side of the config
3) Delete the names for Video and Photos, leaving these two blank will supress those menus.
That's it.
