I have a samsung UNxxC8000 series TV and am running a test of the Twonky system to see if it will meet my needs.
To allow my daughter to watch her recorded shows on her Zune, I have transcoded them into Divx, which works great for her bus ride into school.
When I try and watch them throught Twonky, the file gets served up, but the TV reports that it doesn't understand the file format.
Is this a common issue? Are there any ways to get around this?

I believe that Samsung TVs will play some DivX files if you purchase their codec and enter a license key using your TV remote. Check the Samsung website for info about this.
