Hi Every one. I would love to use Twonky Server on my WHS.
I get it to install, and my samsung tv sees the server, however, it is not serving any media.
Something about dms not running etc...
Then in the control pannels it tells me to install media player 12
Guess what, No media player 12 for whs/2003
You can get some dms functionality, but it is very hacky, and the last time i tried that, I had to re-install my WHS.

So if any one has a document or link with a step by step guide on how to get twonky server 6.0 to server media on 2003/WHS. please share with me.

Regards
Ben
