DLNA - 'no file playable found ".

My BDP-S570 can see my DLNA server and browse the directory structure. However, he pointed out each directory as "no playable file found".

I have a mixture of .mkv, .mp4, .mpg and .vob files. The player sees any of them.

I had a similar problem on a player of Blu - Ray BDP-S570. I have a Western Digital external hard drive with a Twonky media server. The BDP-S570 would find the music repertoire, but gave error "no playable files found" when you try to play music. Interestingly, I just bought a Blu - Ray BDP - S580 player and it plays music on the WD external drive very well.

You're getting hammered by both ends.

Twonky V5.19 is choice of WD in the DLNA server software. It is broken.

You can upgrade to a working version by installing in the Twonky-5 directory, I'm running worm 6.0.37 and it is stable and rendering works well enough to make the functional WD NAS.

If you are not comfortable with Linux, do not attempt this without a step by step cheat sheet. WD's support forum has some. Remember that whenever you make a updated firmware for the WD NAS, you need to reinstall a functional version of Twonky. You will also need to pay for a registration of Twonky key after 30 days use.

I'm streaming movies mpg, mov movies and mp3 audio without problem. I was not brave enough to depart from this combination. I am currnelty using 2 WD MyBookLive NAS units.

Good luck; It took me more than a year of the WD does not as announced before I decide to make it compatible with the player Blu - ray Sony 570 and 46HX TV series...
