Hello I just started to use the Twonky Media Server. I have been use the basic Windows Media Player DLNA server for my streaming needs.
So with my Panasonic TC-P42S30 using the WMP server I can play .AVI files but went I go to the exact same file using Twonky I get a "Cannot read file." When I go to other file types such as .MKV and. MP4 I have no problem with Twonky
Any help would be appreciated

My guess is that WMP is probably transcoding the file automatically, which is why it is playing. That feature is coming in TwonkyServer 7.0 for Mac and PC.
