Yes, this is possible.
There is also a free opensource alternative to Twonkyvision:

thanks for ur fast replie. I wonder if its difficult to get it to work on the
wl500g, can u tell me maybe how i get the software running on the wl500g?
I looked a little more on the http://www.twonkyvision.de/UPnP/download-trial.html site and found software for the wl-hdd i wonder if i can use same software for my wl500g:
The ASUS WLAN-HDD 2.5 runs the Linux Operating System
based on a BCM4710 processor (MIPS little endian).
We use custom firmware to install twonkymedia.
Here are the details:
---------------------
1) Upgrade to custom firmware 1.9.2.7 or higher from e.g.
http://website.wl500g.info/beta/wizard.php?brand=1
or
http://wl500g.info/forumdisplay.php?f=78
Open a browser and enter the following URL http://192.168.1.220. This is
the default IP address of a brand new machine, but may be different to
yours. Press "System Setting" and then "Firmware Upgrade" and follow the
given instructions.
2) Unzip all files to a local directory on the PC and run NASSetup.exe
3) Define an initial script, which runs after every reboot:
Open a browser and enter the following URL http://192.168.1.220. Press "USB
Application" then "FTP Server". Set the "Initial Script" field to
"init.sh". Press "Apply" to save your changes. Press "Finish" and then
"Save&Restart".
twonkymedia will start automatically and can be customized
through http://192.168.1.220:9000
will this work with wl500g? or is it better to use GMedia server

Yes, you can use the WL-500G Deluxe. It makes no difference :-)
Only small difference in the instructions above, is that the WL500G (and 500B) uses 192.168.1.1 as Factory Default ip instead of 192.168.1.220

Thanks a lot for ur help i followed the toturial for the wl-hdd i posted, with the other ip adres and it worked!! I have twonkyvision running now on my WL500g. Now there are 2 things i wanna know.
- on the webpage it says: TwonkyMedia Trial Version Configuration, so its a trail version, will it keep working or will it stop after some time?
- I would like to know for sure if the philips SL50i will work together with
twonkyvision before i buy it.
The trial version only runs for 30 or 60 mins, then stops (can remember if it is 30 or 60).
Phillips SL50i is listed here:
http://twonkymedia.com/UPnP/devices.html
It will also work with gmediaserver - as both servers use the standard UPnP media protocol.
