What Twonky Server version?

Hello,

 

I am running Unraid v.5b14 and Twonky Server v.5.1 which is a very old version.

This version is suggested in somewhere in this forum and it works.

Nevertheless I would like to know if a newer version is supported.

I am asking because I already tried a newer version a few months ago and the experience was painful.

I had to do some serious clean up in Unraid in order for Twonky to start working again.

 

Thank you

I am running 6.0.38.  And I have three instances of it running serving separate files with separate databases and with the web interfaces accessed using different port numbers (not really necessary but I use it for work as well as for home use and it helps in that regard).

 

I am not sure what "clean up" you are referring to.  Twonky only puts files where you tell it to.  To avoid excess file access to my USB drive I have Twonky on my cache drive, and it is set up to keep the database and ini files on there as well.

Apparently, I used an old walkthrough to get my 5.1 version installed.

Could you direct me to the right procedure?

Which specific version of 6.0.38 should I download?

My Twonky server sits on my flash drive. Is it just a matter of replacing the old files with new ones under the Twonkyvision folder?

Or should I run a plugin?

 

Thank you

You need the Linux build for x86 platforms from here...  http://www.twonky.com/support/downloads.aspx

 

I always download the manual installation package.

 

You should regard this thread as a guide (ignore the later stuff regarding FFMPEG and transcoding - I don't use it)...

In particular pay attention to the details regarding changes to the ini files that tell Twonky where to store things.  Each line must point to a location that makes sense.
