TWONKY APP IPAD TV
* Turn on the TV with the connected WDTV, and select the WD for the TV’s input. * Set it up on each installed device by signing into your YouTube, etc. * The basic usage is to download the free Twonky Beam app for your tablets and phones. Recommended video to get you started with the app. The app is used in the same way with the WDTV.

Although it discusses the app being updated for use with Roku and Xbox 360 devices, it is also a good introductory video for WDTV. This video link below, (posted this past December) is what brought the app to my attention. If you have used the “Play To” feature of Windows with your WDTV, you will feel comfortable with this app right away. It’s one of the easiest and best apps I have found for streaming from a tablet or phone to the WDTV, the Roku, Apple TV, etc.Īccording to the Twonky website, “Beaming with the Twonky Beam Button is a simplified, streamlined use of Twonky and DLNA technology to accomplish the task of sending online media to a capable playback device on the local network, such as a connected TV or set top box.” I recently learned about the Twonky Beam app. It is an app you will want to have on your tablets and phones for using with your DLNA devices especially the WDTV. So, I’m taking a moment to introduce the app to the community, and let you know it works great.

Twonky Beam is barely mentioned by folks in these forums, other that to say they are having network problems and they can’t get it, and other apps to work on the WD.
