Title: Newbie Question
Post by: labdog98 on August 24, 2010, 10:57:29 AM

Hi all,

 

I have a linkstation mini which works great but I have a couple of questions.  Please keep in mind I am not extremely techie so a lot of the explanations on here go over my head.

 

1.  I see Twonky mentioned a lot.  What exactly is it?  Currently I have a Sonos Zone Player and play the music through the desktop application or the Itouch app.  Is there a better more efficient way to do so?  If so is that Twonky?

 

2.  When I go online from my work computer to listen to music saved on my linkstation mini, some opens in Quick Time while some opens in Widows Media Player.  Thoughts on why it is not the same and which is better?

 

Thanks!

1) Twonky is just another way to stream media with more customizable options

 

2) are the file formats different for the files?  In most case windows media player will not play .m4a files but quicktime will
