TwonkyServer on Synology DS411+ii?

I am considering upgrading my current NAS to the Synology DS411+ii which has an Intel Atom D525 1.8GHz x86 Processor 64-bit. It's been easy figuring out which Twonky NAS build to use till now because it is named after the model I have. I see that there are a couple of Linux x86 builds, but I have no idea whether one of them could be installed on the DS411+ii. Can someone give me some advice?
Thanks in advance! I won't buy a NAS I can't run Twonky on...

I don't know! I am using the Synology media server on my DS411+II, and it works well. No problems like the ones I had years ago.

Hi,
Well, I would like to use the Synology Media Server but my problem is that my cable TV-box (DLNA supported) refuses to see the NAS. I have Twonky Media Server up and running on my MacBook and that's no problem for my TV-box.
I would like to install Twonky on my NAS just to see if it is a Synology Media Server-problem or if it's a problem on the TV-box.
Did you set up your Media Server or your DLNA device in a special way or did you just enabled the services?
Thanks

Nope, I just renamed my media directories to the Synology standards and enabled the Media Server. I don't use any of the stuff like Audio Station or Photo Station. All of my DLNA clients see the Media Server, and photos and videos are presented properly.
I still don't know which Twonky Server version we should use. I would prefer to use Twonky, because the Synology Media Server made thumbnails of all my 15,000 photos and that use up a bunch of space!
Otherwise, I love the NAS. It's wonderful!

Hi,
OK, thanks. I can't make it work, no matter what i do... I'm stuck with Twonky on my MacBook it seams.
If it was possible to run Twonky Media Server on a 411 + II, surely someone here would have said so? This is a Twonky forum and any employee of the Twonky Team ought to have responded in such a case, you would think ... Your first post is, after all, 6 months old.

Good luck to you! If you try one of the versions I'm too chicken to try, let me know which works,please

Sorry for the delay. Most people were away for the holidays. I don't have an answer but there are many experts on this board which can answer this.
