Allegro Media Server

    Not sure if this is the correct forum for this, (Mods move if necessary)

    I'm currently using Twonky Media server to stream content from my Mac to a Humax HDR Fox T2 and a HD Fox T2. I find the Twonky interface quite clunky and getting it to read iTunes playlists properly is a pain. Has anyone any experience of Allegro Media server ? It's supposed to be fully compatible with iTunes libraries, so it sounds as though it my be a better solution. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

    [Edit]

    To update this and answer my own question, and for anyone else who may be trying this. Curiosity got the better of me and I went ahead and installed Allegro. Into the next room, fired up the Humax box and pointed it at the media server, and sure enough there was all my iTunes playlists. I thought, YES, at last, play through compatibility with iTunes. But alas, it wasn't to be, the tracks seemed to be streaming, at least there was activity on the network, but not a peep of sound, and then the connection was dropped altogether. When I tried to reconnect, I got 'No Server Found' message. Ah well, back to good old clunky Twonky Media Server then.
