Twonky Forum

Hello Twonky Forum,

i want to run the TwonkyServer on a virtual machine on Virtualbox. There i have the problem, that my mediafiles are located on the hosts harddisk and within the guest i can only mount the harddisk as a network share.

But here is the problem: I can't select the networkdrive i mounted (Z:\ (\\vboxsrv\media)) in the TwonkyServer configuration dialog.

Is there a limitation? why can't i select the drive( it only show's A. and C:)?

thanks for the help in advance

anyone an idea? tips to get around the problem?

Have you tried just typing in the network location instead of trying to select it from the Browse dialog? I have just done this on my TMS 6.1 Beta installation on my Windows PC and it worked, although a Z: mapped to the same location didn't.

Try typing in \\vboxsrv\media on yours.

No i haven't. Well, i could have gotten that idea myself.

BIG Thank You. that did it. It's working now.

Hi guys,
how is performing TMS on a VM? I have a server with win 2003 64 and i cannot run tms 6. I was wondering if there are any performance degradation runnin on a vm.

Thank you
