even if twonky could do that
there are probably better products to do that

netgear has a push to tv product, that may better suit your needs
i think there are other producta out there, but this one came to mind

surely this must be the simplest thing in the world to do, if my panasonic viera tv already connects via wifi to my home network via a netgear dongle so tha ti can see viera cast, and my laptop is connected to my home network by wifi why cant i see my laptop desktop on my tv, maybe twonky dont want to do it because then there would be no need for all the other complicated procedures built into their programme, you could simply do it all directly from your laptop
