4.4.3 & 4.4.4 AVI

Hi,

I've been trying Twonky in combination with a JVC Sophisti DD3 and it seems to be going ok except for 1 thing. I can't get Twonky to stream divx/xvid to the DD3 where WMP 11 could.

I've tried updating codecs and upgrading to the beta version of twonky without luck. Also adding tags to the avi as I read on the forum did not help.

Could someone let me know what to tweak or to do twonky to make it stream avi?????

Thanks!

Just to add:

I can see the avi files through the webbrowser.

And I'm not using twonky as service under windows XP.

Anyone from twonky who knows this??

I've got the same problem; no avi / divx files are visible on my JVC Sophisti DD-3

I'm using a QNAP TS-209 Pro NAS with TwonkyVision MediaServer v4.4.4 RC1 on it.

I already tried changing the client type in Twonky configuration and rescanning the media files, but nothing seems to solve the issue.

JVC Sophisti DD-3 is an official DLNA 1.0 certified mediaplayer, so it has to work...

Hi,
don't know if it will help you cause I have installed Twonky on a Buffalo TeraStation. But with the same problem of unvisible DivX and Avi files.
Please look here for my solution: http://www.twonkyforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=4714 (note: you have to look for the entries for your clients not for my Ziova Player :wink: )
My be it helps.
Instead of deleting this entry "MT:avi,divx video/avi" complete, you can also try this correction: "MT:avi,divx video/x-msvideo".
There are 2 ways to edit the clients.db
  • - edit it directly (via telnet access) on your NAS
    - edit the Twonky setup files before installation
Hope this will help you
Cheers

Hi FHSalute,

Unfortunately your solution isn't working.
In fact there is no "MT:avi,divx video/avi" entry in the DLNA 1.0 device section
(it's recommended to use the DLNA 1.0 client in TwonkyVision for the JVC Sophisti).

I really hope there's a solution to this problem...

Greetinx,
