Can not connect to media server

[kempelen]

I have a 42PFL4307H TV. I installed Twonky media server on my Windows7 PC, started it, but the TV can not detect any media server on my network.
I have a local network with one router wired, the TV and my PC wired connected.
I have Norton AntiVirus on my PC, but I opened the Twonky critical ports on my firewall.

Could you please help me in this? I have no idea left.

Hi,
I'm for sure not that expert, but may ask for some additional details cause I managed to get it running in any way.

1 Do you "see" any media server when you key > Home > your network ?
There should be at last one line showing your media server name

2 what IP address do you see on > home > config > network adjustment > IP-Config
should be anything with 192.168.xxx.yyy

PS menu keynames may be different cause I just translated free from my german language menu

Since I have exactly the same problem, can I answer instead?
I see Media server in my network on the PC and the IP is set correctly.
Still doesnt work, what else can you suggest?
Thanks

Same problem on my end. As far as I have checked, I already set up everything perfectly as what other instructed, but still no luck.

Thank you for replying, but I am under Bulgaria support and I dont understand their language,
I dont know if it would be ok to call UK support?
I ve alredy contacted support via e mail, and havent got a response, for almost 2 weeks, maybe.

Yes, it's a shame. I've seen at the other thread.


@daempii
go for that support line call.

Hi Betipet.

If you haven't called the UK support yet, this should be ok.

I can connect to my QNAP NAS with Twonky, but only when my philips is serching for media players and I restart my twonky server. I can view photos, watch movies etc.

As soon as I disconnect, watch tv for example, and go back the connection is lost and I have to restart the media player again. Frustrating...
