TV doesn't see MKV files

Hi,

It would be great if you can help me with my problem. I want to play MKV-Files on Sony TV over Wifi with the help of Serviio. What I have is:

* TV: Sony KDL26EX555
* Servio latest Version on Windows XP
* Files are located on my Windows Home Server (Provided as a network share to Windows XP)

The TV detect Serviio instantly and show the name of directory which I specified in the console. But then I won't see the mkv files, which are located there. Do I have to enable something special?

regards,
Steel

The Problem seems to be the network share from the Windows Home Server. If I copy the mkv-file to Win xp machine it will be seen by TV. Is there a workaround for this?

I thougt that my WHS isn't powerful enough to run Serviio itself (it was an Atom 330 CPU, Dual Core). But I installed it and it runs very well!

Great peace of software, many thanks to the developer!
