ReadyNAS Duo - DLNA - Panasonic BWT700GL
I have a Netgear ReadyNAS Duo 2000 firmware 4.1.7 that has DLNA turned on. I'm looking at the Panasonic DMR-BWT700GL as a new HDD Recorder. http://www.panasonic.com.au/Products/DVD+and+Blu-ray/Blu-ray...

Hi
I am in exactly the same place here. I have a ReadyNAS Duo with the latest Raidaitor (4.1.7) and DLNA addons (1.0.21) installed. I also have a Panasonic DMR-BWT700.
The panasonic can see the files on the NAS but can't play them. It can only play one small mpg in my testing so far. It does play all the mp3 files and photos nicely.
I have tested the avi files on a usb stick as suggested above. In that case the files play fine. So it is the combination of the file type and the DLNA, not either singly.
I called Panasonic, they didn't seem to know much. Their response was "we always ask if you are running win 7 or twonky". When I said that I wasn't the support process ended. Which is to say they didn't know s#$#.
Any further suggestions appreciated, or if you can get through to panasonic's tier two support, any info they might have would be good.
