8.2.1 has New builds - What NAS Build is for what NAS

Post by bcormel » Sun Feb 14, 2016 12:25 am

Hi;
Looking down the NAS downloads list, in particular the latest list:
http://www.twonkyforum.com/downloads/8.2.1/
I have had issues in the past defining exactly what builds are for which NAS.
Can we get a list of what NAS builds are for which NAS?
The latest list has new builds for
- My Cloud
- Marvel Armada
- Marvel Kirkwood
And no longer builds listed for QNAP.
It would be easy if in each build package was a text file explaining for which devices the build is for. Like the readme file.
Barring that, it would be nice to see a complete list detailing the explanation of the NAS builds currently in a release download section.
At best, we are forced to query the Twonky server for the platform.
And then when it tells us the platform, it is still cryptic as to which build exactly to use.
Can someone please give us a list, particularly with the latest 8.2.1 builds?
My particular NAS drives are WD My Cloud (single drive) with the latest firmware (v04.04.02-105).
I could not find one build that worked on them for the 8.2.0 release. And with the change up in the list of packages in 8.2.1, I'm no longer sure.
I paid for licenses, I'd like to get the most out of what I paid for.
And I want to use the custom navigation trees only available in the 8.x.x builds.
Cheers.
