They are my screen grabs, kindly provided to TVersity team.

You have to go to http://host:41952/lib (where host is my public IP address or my dynamic domain name) and not try and view the full TVersity GUI which the Nokia 770 cannot run as you have found out. The Lib URL option enables you to browse and search your TVersity served media via the Nokia 770 browser and then use opera to copy link location and feed to mplayer in xterm etc.

There is more functionality that works well like including TVersity provided AV feeds in the Nokia feed reader, again via the Lib URL. Do read the TVersity FAQ for more information.

TVersity is not currently available for Linux although the TVersity team keep promising a Linux version at some point I am not so sure as TVersity is not planned to be open source.

Hope you get it working as TVersity is a great little Media Server.
