Post by ganesh_kumar » Mon Aug 01, 2011 2:07 pm

HI,

I use Intel AV Media Controller as DMC for last six months it has no problem, when i use Twonky Server (version and other details given below) the DMC shows the resource URI always "127.0.0.1" but i am expecting to be in some 192.162.x.x range.
other servers are quit ok. but could any one tell me what is the problem here ?

TwonkyMedia version : 6.0.34
Server hardware : x86
Operating System : Windows
If you are running as a system service (Windows only) : NO
Client(s) and their software version : Intel AV Media Controller (Intel AV UPnP utils)
How many files you have in your database : 100
Network type (Wired/Wireless) : wired


Thanks in advace,
Ganesh.

My guess would be Intel AV Media Controller is picking up the Twonky server SSDP broadcasts from the localhost address (i.e. 127.0.0.1), presuming you are running both on the same computer. Twonky server by default broadcasts on this address as well as the regular IP address.

Try the following-
1) Locate the twonkymedia-server.ini file. (I don't know where this is located in Windows)
2) Open this file in a text editor and change the disablelocalssdp option to disablelocalssdp=1
3) Save the file and reboot your computer.
