![]() Now I have recommended to others in the past to give Serviio a try and those that did like it very much. I am aware that Twonky for some unknown reason doesn't like certain files and that too is mentioned in his write up. I understood but was uncertain if you saw or tried what Alex Wrote about so I provided it just to be sure. I was hoping to just be able to play all the kids movies that I have in MKV-DTS through the Panasonic DNLA without having to fire up the HTPC. I did connect a 46" Screen to my computer because I thought it would be cool but it hurt my neck and I was done with that after an hour.Īnyway I like to keep things simple at my age its only a matter of time before I start forgetting what I was doing the last 5 mins never mind the day before. Sometimes I just kick back in the big office chair with my feet up and watch movies from my computer which has a 24" 1080P Display with a 5 speaker speaker bar. I do have surround equipment systems but I hardly ever use them. I am different then most in that if it plays and I can hear sound then I am happy. I use media extenders to stream my movies to my TV's which have no DLNA capabilities. That I can not answer but if you look at the various media extenders on the market I am certain you can find what your looking for but its another device to add to your TV which may or may not be acceptable to you. I will try Serviio, my question still is for Panasonic Viera Plasmas, do they support DTS audio in MKV container without trans-coding to AC3? I am looking for a media server that can push the real DTS audio through with out trans-coding. ![]() ![]() Good Luck and hope you get your issue resolved. If its not causing any other issue then leave it be and I do not believe it will interfere with Serviio if you opt to install it. I do believe that Twonky on your EX495 it required if you want to run the other media functions built into your server but I could be wrong so you need to check that out if you decide you want to remove or disable it. If you want Twonky support or desire to upgrade your version which may require you to purchase it then you need to go to the manufactures website. Of course as time moves on there are updates and back in 2011 Alex did a write up on revision which may be of interest to you so check it out. I did test the first version out and its very feature rich and had more options then I care to mention. HP included it with all their MSS Models and if you read through the forums you can get a good overview as to what others have to say about it.įirst thing I need to point out is that for me I do not need nor do I require any DLNA Software running on my servers and since you asked about an alternative solution the one thing that comes to mind is Serviio which those who have tried it liked it much better than Twonky. Personally I have never been a big fan of Twonky and I know another person who was not involved with servers but did have experience with Twonky did not have anything favorable to say about it.
