Using MMW5 to Manage Content for a Different DLNA Server

Post by Frylock62 »

Hi, I'd like to use MMW5 to manage the multimedia content contained on an external HDD connected to my router. The thing is, I want the content to be served out by the router's media server. The router has a built-in--but barebones--Twonky 6.0 DLNA server so I want to be able to robustly tag and organize the mainly movie, TV and music media on the drive...but in a way Twonky will recognize. (Why not just use MMW5 to serve the data, you ask? Because the router's connection to my network is much better than my wi-fi connected desktop.) Any tips or tricks would be appreciated. Thanks

No real tips, just tag your files in MediaMonkey and Twonky should pick up the changes. MediaMonkey follows the tagging standards: https://www.mediamonkey.com/wiki/WebHel ... erties/5.0 so as long as Twonky does any tagging should be compatible.
