can't watch movies from my library on my TV
#1
Hi all,

this is my first post, so first let me say hello.

I have a lot of movies on my computer in both MKV and AVI format.

I also have DLNA capable bluray player and tv

I have installed XBMC on my computer and setup my library.

when I go to my TV, XBMC shows up as a DLNA client and I can view my library. however, when I try to play a movie, I simply get the message "cannot play"

Any ideas on what I have done wrong?

thanks

Can the Blu-ray player/TV play avi/mkv files?

Doesn't sound like it.

Flirc now has a forum: forum.flirc.tv

Using WINDOWS? Make sure your folder is shared.

Some TVs don't like XBMC as a dlna server, try Serviio, it works for me.
