i have the same problem like roland_I, using german WHS on my belinea o.center.
I installed Twonky Add-in and my Server Console is DEAD!!!!!!!!!! i am really upset !
what is so difficult in testing software that should work as an add-in for whs !?
additionally it uses hardcoded paths in ini-file which does not exist on my machine (not everybody is using an english OS, guys..)
I can not believe it !! this is the first add-in i payed for because i thought twonky is doing software you can trust in. 10€ wasted and a dead homeserver console !!
great work! thank you.
i like to know if the console problem is known and how i can reanimate my whs console.

Hi Jensemann,
I am running TMS5.1.1 on my German WHS (Powerpack 3 installed, all updates) on my belinea o.center.
Twonky Add-in is reponsive (well, one it indexed all media), server console is working and my UPnP clients are playing as they should.

dear guys at twonky,
take a look at Tversity oder Asset Upnp how a upnp server *should* work..
I was able to unistall Twonky and my WHS. every click takes a few minutes.
I will never install it again. For me twonky for WHS is a no-go.
I dont care if it is not responsive once it is ready with indexing, we are talking about a sw for a server environment where absolutely nothing should stop the server istself from being usable (in this case the WHS console).

I am sorry to report that the WHS addin broke my WHS console as well. If I launch the WHS Console inside WIN7, I must click SKIP twonkymedia console tab, before the WHS console will launch.
I am running WHS PP3 and my Desktop is Win7 HP. Both worked fine together until I installed a licensed copy of Twonky 5.1 WHS addin. I am disappointed to say the least.
Please advise when an corrected version is available.
Twonky 5.1.2 WHS Console seems to work now

So far, and it may change, v. 5.1.2 is working. My console opened without a problem twice.

i cant complain either. twonky take some time at start to do the indexing, but then its fine.
my intial problems (even before twonky) with a unresponsive whs console dissapeared after upgrading the cpu.
maybe an atom is a bit weak?

I just discussed this issue with the Product Manager for TMS. She is aware of this issue and we're trying to see what can be done about it. I just wanted to let everyone know that we're aware of this. Thanks.
