Twonky does not find all media files

Hi!

I have struggled a couple of weeks trying to get Twonky supporting my PS3 and my D-link DSM-320 media player. However it seems impossible to get around the following problem. I use Twonky version 4.4.11.

I have perhaps 100 videos, mostly DivX, but when rebuilding the database Twonky will not add all the videos to the database. It seems to be a bit random which of the video files it skips and how many. Sometimes it finds ~80, sometimes not more than a couple. The "Rescan" does not seem to make any difference at all.

I really want to solve this problem, since Twonky is running so smoothly on the DSM. I have tried both the built-in media server as well as MediaTomb, but none of them are doing the job as quicky and stable as Twonky.

Anyone else having the same problem? Any solutions or thoughts?

Re: Twonky does not find all media files

I've only been running Twonky 4.4.11 on my DNS-323 for a few days now, but it's working perfectly for me with a mix of h.264, h.263, .xvid and other codecs in a mix of .m4v, .mp4, .avi and .wmv containers.

I have ~537 videos, have it set to rescan the locations every 3 hours, and, as I said, it's working flawlessly, whether I let it do the automated rescan or rescan manually.  In fact, the service has been rebooted a couple of times, too, and it's not ever had a problem.

Hmm, strange. I guess I have to try to install everything again and see if it makes any difference...

By the way, are you also using FW 1.06?

i found that when the file extension is in capitals, twonky does not always sees the file.
