Are there any Gotchas having two media servers on the same subnet? Grateful for any thoughts before I take the plunge.

You can run several media servers on the same LAN or even on the same server. I run both Twonky 6.0.39 and MinimServer 0.52 on my Qnap TS-419P+.

Hi all,
Just to let you know I have set up Minimserver on the Qnap TS 209 and I think it is great. Installation instructions perfect in every way and went like a dream after I had turned off all my add-ons in Firefox which mess up the Java download preliminaries.

I prefer Minimserver to Twonky but will need to read again Briain's messages on Genres as I have a few multiple genres set up for Twonky. Minimserver certainly shows up any inconsistencies in tagging so I still have much work to do with classical collection but
overall a big thank you to Simon.
