Twonky 6.0.39 Install

1) In your web browser go to your WD My Book Live Local Network Interface at: YOUR MYBOOK LIVE IP ADDRESS/UI (ie:http://192.168.0.xxx/UI)

2) Go to "Settings"

3) Go to "Utilities"

4) Go to "Import/Export Current Configuration", then click "Save Config File".

5) Open saved file with a text editor ie: notepad.

6) In the text file look for "ssh_enable="disabled" and change to "ssh_enable="enabled" and save.

7) Go back to the Import/Export Current Configuration and import the file you just edited. This now enables SSH on your drive for the Putty program to work.

8) To to Setting->Media and turn off TWONKY Service (uncheck enable)

9) Download free Putty SSH software at: Http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html

10) Enter the My Book Live IP address (ie:192.168.0.xxx) in the Host Name box in Putty.

11) The username is: root password is: welc0me (the O in welcome is the number ZERO)

12) Just copy and paste the following commands in the terminal:

cd /usr/local/
mv twonkymedia-5 twonky5old
mkdir twonkymedia-5
cd twonkymedia-5
wget http://www.twonkyforum.com/downloads/6.0.39/twonkymedia-powerpc-glibc-2…
unzip twonkymedia-powerpc-glibc-2.2.5-6.0.39.zip
mv /usr/local/sbin/writeTwonkyContentDir.sh /usr/local/sbin/writeTwonkyContentDir.sh.old
reboot

13) After reboot enable the TWONKY service from Settings->Media. You can also configure TWONKY with LIVE IP ADDRESS:9000 i.e.. Http://192.168.0.xxx:9000/

14) If you have a license then put it there to register the 30 day trial version. I can verify that V serial works.

15) Enjoy !

16 Optional) If you have a Samsung TV you may need to set "SAMSUNG TV" on config twonky (http://yourip:9000/config) for media receiver. The problem is that for each media receiver the access to the server can be restricted, and the Twonky can't detect Samsung TV automatically sometimes.
