No media server (.mkv support) with Amahi curently?

Postby kdizzle13 » Thu Mar 17, 2011 6:42 am

a few days ago I had a working Amahi server with DLNA. Then I noticed files were not showing up on my WD TV box when I was streaming. I read the wiki and it said to reinstall...so I uninstalled then couldn't find it in the apps (I now know why it didn't show up...paid app...now I know that is where it went.). Then I install uShare but it won't stream my .mkv files. (Which is why I bought the WD TV Live box).

I then see the latest release is f14 - Amahi 6 so I do the install now I have no media sever currently.

Now I am looking around for other options such as media tomb on a different release. :cry:

Couple of follow up questions:
Are there other .mkv media servers in use with Amahi?

I should add: I am ready to pay for the DLNA app. My concern is that the install page lists 6 as the latest stable release however DLNA is yet to work so I am SOL until that is fixed.

Edit
I guess I was behind the curve. Bought DLNA and it installed on 6 just fine

I could be wrong, but I seem to remember there being a problem with DLNA and MKV files, I don't believe the problem is amahi, but rather a problem with dlna itself not liking mkv.
