Ok i'se sent PM to you with some info ... use caution for avoid files deleting... BACKUP is the first step ... or take a risk as i've made :-)

Hi, did you manage to find a solution?

I have exactly the same problem:

LinkStation™ Duo - LS-WX4.0TL/R1

Firmware V1.63

Bluray Samsung BD-E5500

Smart TV E55ES8000

 

I can't play mkv files, while I can using a USB device

 

In addition often I loose the connection when half way playing an AVI or Xdvi file

Unfortunately, I haven't!  I have come to accept that there are certain incompatibilities between different DLNA media players and there may be some that can and others can't play the formats that they are supposed to play.

I have since purchased some other DLNA-compliant (or so-called!) devices and found this fact to be (sadly!) true!  I think the DLNA standard is still in its infancy and since it is not really a mass-adopted piece of technology (yet!), I believe there are still "teething" issues.

Sorry, I can't be more of a help to you!
