Homestream

Hi,

 

I've downloaded and tried to run Homestream so I can stream from my Mac to my Sony Bravia TV. When I unzip the file and try to run the download it tells me that it is damaged and so will not run. 

 

Is anybody else having this problem?

Hi there

 

I do not know why you are having problems with installing Homestream.  Considering that Homestream was built on the Serviio platform - Can you try installing Serviio instead?

 

Download Page:

Direct Link for Mac

http://download.serviio.org/releases/serviio-1.4-osx.tar.gz

 

Some installation instructions:

My fingers are crossed.

Cheers

Hi there

 

Can you try re-downloading the Homestream file again?

Hi,

Cheers for the quick response.

Yeah I've tried deleting the previous file and downloading it again a couple of times and this hasn't solved the problem.

Hi,

 

Cheers for the link.

 

I've given it a go and I get the same response. It downloads fine, unzips automatically but then when I try to open the file it says that 'the file is damaged. You should move it to the trash'

Hi,

 

Thanks for your responses. I've downloaded directly from Serviio and it has worked perfectly.

 

Cheers for your help, I can have a play around with the software now.
