"The server does not support DLNA". That's all it says. It could be my Sony Bravia TV's are just too old now. (going on 5 years). I can use Windows Media Player (horrible) as well as Twonky. They both work with the TV's.

A quick web search for "The server does not support DLNA" produced a number of long threads with posts from owners of Sony devices having this issue with a variety of servers. Unfortunately, I didn't find any information about what these servers aren't sending that the TV is expecting.

Thanks Simon.

My TV's are able to use Twonky, microsoft and MediaMonkey servers with no problem. MediaMonkey and Twonky are o.k. - I avoid the Microsoft server. I wanted to use MinimServer (having read the great reviews), but it does not seem to work with my TV's. Thanks for looking into it.
