Linkstation HomeServer HS-DH500GL Twonky Upgrade

Post by Sio » Sun Apr 11, 2010 8:54 pm

Hi all, I have been reading about other people's problems with Samsung LED TVs DLNA and Buffalo NAS drives (mine are both on the latest firmware - TV on ver3001.1 & NAS on ver2.11)

My Samsung TV only plays MPG & VOB files over the network but plays all supported files via USB.

I have heard it said that a Twonky NAS server upgrade may solve the problem and am willing to try it.

My question is; can anyone tell me if this is the root cause of my DLNA problem and will I have to pay for a licence for the NAS server version?

Cheers,

Sio.

failed at the first hurdle! the NAS seems to be rejecting the telnet request from the upgrade application. networking is fine as I can HTTP and map a drive to the NAS anyone know why this would be? (All firewalls are off)

this was because the HS-DH500GL has not be set up to accept Telnet sessions but ACP_COMMANDER

will sort this out.

I have now encountered another problem with permissions but thought I would update to help others.
