A couple Twonky questions

833 Views 4 Replies 3 Participants Last post by  Rambler
First, anyone know if there's a way to add music to a picture slideshow?

And there's supposed to be a month trial period of Twonky. I've been using it for just over a month now, and the info screen indicates the trial period will begin after the first client connection. I've only been using Twonky for listening to music and viewing photos from my PC. So, does this mean you need to connect to Twonky's server, for something like internet radio or the like?

When the HR20 connects to it, the trial will kick in. That would be considered client access. You've been accessing the meda via the network interface. (your pc's IP address, also probably listed as 127.0.0.1)

To play music while your in a slide show, just access the menu option during the slide show and find your music. The slide show will procede until you stop it or until select another folder or date, etc.

Interesting, my copy of Twonky indicates there's been no client access yet. :confused: Not that I'm complaining, and I wouldn't mind paying the $20 it costs. :grin:

Cool and thanks! I'll try that out this evening. :)
Could you clarify which version of Twonky I want for serving media to the HR20?

From their website, it seems TwonkyMedia is what I want, but it is around $USD 39 (29.95 Euros).

TwonkyMusic is only about $26, but it only serves music.

Thanks for your help.
