Don't think it can do that, it's just a dedicated link to Vieracast. Mine can't, I access PC content through a Netgear EVA8000 media extender.

It can do that, it tells me in the book how to set it up using twonky, you even get a serial key for twonky Blocked port on your firewall of the media server? tried that, even tried turning the firewall off the tv is showinh up on connected devices on the router page, but no servers show up on the tv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

devil Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 looking at the twonky media server config, you need to make sure the media receivers are setup, your tv being one. Have a look: http://www.holtekonline.net/twonkymedia/en/help/help01-content.html in the media server bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
