Well thanks! :) I havent tried it directly wired to the NAS. I think that would mean each device would get a 169.254.100.X address. I have all machines on the same switch. The Beosound can see my laptop install of Twonky…

I would check the doors open smoothly and evenly and close evenly and smoothly too. See it plugged in and working. Check it plays CDs of course and doesnt make any funny noises.

I was but then QNAP suggested rolling it back to a previous Firmware. I did this but it still didnt help. A technician engaged by Bang & Olufsen then tried a very old firmware version and it killed the QNAP. I then put t…

Thanks Ari! The QNAP does not have a friewall on it. I have checked that port 1900 is open on the QNAP and it is. If I install Twonkyserver on to my laptop the BS5 encore sees it straight away. It has been rebooted and f…

B and O have been a great help via a really nice chap in London from Polaris Networks. We have rebuilt the entire QNAP from the bottom up. Testing it using UPnP with Foobar2000, PS3 and all can see Twonkyserver except Be…

The Twonkyserver sees the Music files no problem. The config pages work fine. What I had thought was that perhaps the QNAP security was blocking the Twonkyserver somehow but it would seem not since I can see the Twonkyse…

Anyone out there got any suggestions? I've factory reset both devices and re-setup the QNAP and Beosound. Everything looks fine but the Beosound just keeps showing none|none in the storage submenu in service settings. I …

Does anyone know if the Beosound needs the files in a specific location on the NAS? My QNAP is visible to my PS3 but not my Beosound. I've gone through the steps of trying to add the Twonkyserver as media storage but the…

The plot thickens. My play station can see the Twonkyserver and everything works with it but still my Beosound cannot see the Twonkyserver. I install Twonkyserver on my laptop and the Beosound can see it no problem.....

Thanks for the replies. The media files are simply mp3. Upnp is enabled on the router and Twonky is running. The Beosound cannot see any storage devices in the service settings (tried that already Im afraid). Everything …
