: Linkstation Live / Airplay
: coops74 January 05, 2011, 03:44:57 AM

I have recently installed Airplay on my iphone and whilst connected to my LAN at home, the media server shows up and I can play movies and music etc.

 

Away from my home LAN, the media server is clearly not detected.  The airplayer instructions for Twonky media servers is to input this address:

 

http://ip Address:9000/TMSDeviceDescription.xml

 

I cannot get this to work however.  Can anybody tell me the location of the XML file on the linkstation?

 

I have posted a similar thread on the airplayer forum but this appears to be linkstation specific.

Unfortunately this is not supported so we do not have that information available.

Are there any plans to improve the web access app then? :-)

 

It supports far less formats than airplayer and has such small file size restrictions that it's almost useless for video playback.

I would think so seeing as it's still relatively new.  I would suggest posting your ideas here:
