Re: Not able to see media files via DLNA

I had the same problem, maybe I can help you.

 

I also saw all files like you over the browser on the twonky-site, but didn't see any files on my tv.

 

I solved the problem on the setup twonky site under "Shares". I had to search the directory (in my case "public") and then choosed "Add new directory". Because there you decide, which directory you want to share.

After that I could see and play all my files over my tv.

Hi Markhus,

 

Thanks for the pointer. But, I am not clear where I should add the directory. In my TV? Would you please be able to send me a screen shot or something?

Re: Not able to see media files via DLNA

It worked!  :smileyvery-happy: Thanks Markus.

 

For some reason my Windows PCs were able to see my 666 videos via network share or media server but my WDTV Live Hubs and Android devices would only see them via network share.  After 2 trolling around the forums I found this post, tries it and now it works.  I would've expected that the Public folder was shared by default but I guess I was expecting too much.
