Correct name for .INI file

Post by john.glasson » Fri Aug 06, 2010 3:49 pm

I'm puzzled by the naming of the mediaserver .INI file. Though the default supplied is always called "twonkymedia-server-default.ini", once the user modifies a server setting and saves the results, the new file created by Twonky seems to be named inconsistently: in versions 5.1.3 (which I've used until recently) it's called "twonkyvision-mediaserver.ini"; but in 6.0.9 (which I'm now trialling) it's named "twonkymedia-server.ini".

Is this intentional? "twonkymedia-server.ini" seems the more logical name since the default is called "twonkymedia-server-default.ini"

I can see why this might be confusing, but these changes were planned as part of branding changes on the 6.0.x release.

It's going to change once more when TwonkyServer 6.1 is launched. At that time it will be called "twonky-server.ini". Let's hope that is the last change.
