5 Further Configuration
After installing TwonkyMedia, the default configuration will in most cases allow to start using
TwonkyMedia right away. In addition, there are different ways to customize TwonkyMedia:
All options may be configured by means of the server's web-based configuration
pages. Upon startup the MediaServer creates a twonkyvision-config.html page in its
startup directory. To access this configuration page, you can simply open this page
with a web browser. The page can also be accessed with Windows XP systems by
just opening the presentation page of the MediaServer device. If you have not
changed the default settings, this page is always found at the following location:
http://your-ip:port/configpage/index.htm
where "your-ip" is the IP address of the device where the MediaServer is running and
the port is the port number of the MediaServer HTTP server (9000 by default).
The url http://127.0.0.1:9000 will work on most systems.
Another way to select options is to edit the configuration file of the MediaServer
directly with a text editor. Due to error-proneness this method is recommended for
experienced users only. Depending on the type of server you are using, the filename
is either twonkyvision-mediaserver.ini or twonkyvision-musicserver.ini. The file is
created automatically on the first startup of the MediaServer - on Windows systems
in the Windows directory, on UNIX and Macintosh it is found in the MediaServer
startup directory. If you want to reset the MediaServer to the default configuration at
any time, you can simply delete this file - the MediaServer will recreate it with the
default settings. The same applies to resetting single configuration options - locate
the option in the .ini file and delete the line from the file - on the next startup the
MediaServer will re-insert the corresponding line for that option with the default value
into the .ini file.
Finally, options can also be specified as command line parameters when starting the
MediaServer. Moreover, a few options can only be specified as command line
parameters. If you want to use command line parameters on a Windows system, you
can first create a shortcut to MediaServer.exe. Then under ‘properties’ you can add
the command line parameters behind the name of the executable.
This method of selecting options is not available when using the server in an
embedded system.
Most changes to the configuration require a restart of the MediaServer. You can use the
restart button on the web-based configuration page or simply stop the MediaServer and start
it again.
