How can install it? I've find just .exe.
You install TVersity on a Windows PC and then you access this server using either Media Streamer or Canola which can see AV items shared to them from the TVersity Media Server.

TVersity is able to be provide, Internet AV URL's, RSS Feeds and/or localised Playlists that you enter into it's library as directories/items that can be searched and subsequently played back via appliactions running on the N800

TVersity ensures that when and where the Wi-Fi Network throughput is not powerful enough or the orginating AV file is not supported by the underlying standard media player on the N800, that the format is automatically transcoded to a format that the N800 supports.

You must read the various set-up threads at the TVersity web page to ensure your PC is set up correctly to get the most from TVersity.

I have to report a weird problem I've encountered. Every song I have streamed to my 770 stops playing with 23 seconds left to go
This may be a bug of TVersity with the Nokia 770 & N800 suggest you check in TVersity forum and record your issue there. I will also try to check my own mp3's on my N800 using Tversity 0.9.10 and Twonky this evening to see if I experience a similar problem. I assume we are talking about mp3's or perhaps wma's?

It is possible but means a port has to be opened through your PC & Router firewalls to access TVersity on port 41952 for example. I was trying to use Hamachi as this creates a Secure VPN which means no ports need to be left open between the PC and my Nokia 770 and it should work, but had problems with it There is a command line version of Hamachi that runs on the Internet Tablets and I have used it sucessfully to VNC into my XP PC from outside my network securely.
