Hello,
I've just bought a Linkstation Pro. I'm really happy about this NAS, but not about the DLNA function... This NAS use an old version of TwonkyMedia (v4.x) which is not compatible with my Samsung led TV. I can stream .avi and other simple video file, but i can't stream MKV ! (Streaming mkv work with twonky v5 install on my Mac).
So I would like to update my twonky server on the linkstation, and i need your help... I don't want install a debian on my linkstation, just an open firmware because I think, it's easier, and I don't need more feature. Please could you explain me step by step how can i do that simply ? It could be better if I havn't to use command line.
Thanks for your help.

you should be able to got to port http://<ip of your linkstation>:9000 or http://<ip of your linkstation>:9050 depending on which port Twonky sets it up
Then go here and download the one for your device
http://www.twonkyforum.com/downloads/6.0.30/
Then go here
http://buffalo.nas-central.org/index.ph ... k_Firmware
download the acp_commander.jar
follow directions
Run the updated twonky-nas-exe and enter in your information
******* I would recommend that you be comfortable with linux because you might have to edit some files to get your new version of Twonky to run correctly. Note you will also have to buy a new license in order to use Twonky longer than 30 days.
Hope this helps
