How to get Twonky on ReadyNAS 202

[Racso]

Dear all,

For many years I've used my ReadyNAS duo with Twonky server, until my disks ran full.

Recently bought a ReadyNAS 202 but now I stumble into a few issues .....

The Twonky version for ARM-based NAS is available, but has to be installed manually on the NAS. (no .deb file available)

Now, I'm not a Linux expert (and not intending to become one) but certainly willing to experiment whether I can manage to get Twonky running.

Does anybody know of a detailed manual how to actually install Twonky (twonkymedia-armeb-glibc-2.2.5-5.1.1) manually on this NAS?

The unzipped folder contains many files and I'm not sure how to proceed.

Thx

Hi Racso,

It seems that the add-on has been removed in our apps website. We'll check the availability of the twonky ARM based add-on for R6 models.

Hi Racso,

Let's see what @WhoCares_ & @super_poussin can suggest or say about the missing add-on for ARM-based R6 NAS.

The Twonky add-on wasn't made by me so I have no idea why it vanished from the app store, sorry. That said it shouldn't be too hard to bake the files from Twonky into a deb file. Maybe I'll have a look if time permits but would like to wait for poussin's opinion first.

Dear WhoCares,

I will certainly help me and many others if you could bake a ReadyNAS OS6 ARM compatible package.

I have tried many uPnP/DLNA servers but have to admit that TwonkyServer is one of the best which works very will with many thrid party players/devices.

Looking forward to your contribution 🙂

Cheers,

Hi there,

Any news on the development of a Twonky server add-on for the ARM line-up?

I am very interested in trying it.

Cheers,
