Hi,
I have setup a machine using Clarkconnect 5.0 (Router, Content filtering, file sharing) Server. I am trying Twonky on it.
I installed Twonky Server v5.0.61.
I have a mixture of Linux desktops (Ubuntu), Windows XP and game systems on my network.
I added in /usr/local/twonkymedia (my install directory) a folder called media
and in /usr/local/twonkymedia/media
I had to do a link to my clarkconnect samba shares ie. ln -s /var/flexshares/shares/multimedia/Music Music
otherwise twonky wouldn't scan the flexshares folder
I modified my twonky-server-default.ini to:
As per some other posts, which is working well.
I am having issues with videos to the PS3. On my Ubuntu machine, the videos play back fine in firefox, on the PS3 they show as unsupported data.
I have ffmpeg installed:
I don't see anything in the logs reporting content issues.
Any suggestions on how to get AVI's to stream to the PS3? MPEG2's are working fine. The audio seems to be working fine also.
Thanks
Joe
