Universal Media Server | Forum

Before you start looking at potential UMS issues, you should fix your network setup. It sounds to me like your ISP has given you a lot of wrong "advice" and that you currently have a compromised network (one that is accessible from the outside). Your local network should not be public and you should...

A Raspberry Pi probably won't have enough power to transcode anything, so that assumption is correct. To be able to use the Roku in combination with a Raspberry Pi would thus indeed require you to convert the videos upfront, which to a large extent eliminates the need for a media server like UMS ;) ...

This isn't really that complicated, the Bravia in the log posted in the first post in this thread lists support for the following: http-get:*:image/jpeg:DLNA.ORG_PN=JPEG_LRG;DLNA.ORG_FLAGS=8cf00000000000000000000000000000 http-get:*:image/jpeg:DLNA.ORG_PN=JPEG_MED;DLNA.ORG_FLAGS=8cf00000000000000000...

@SubJunk That was really low. I don't know what you're up to, but I consider what you write above to be hostile and untruthful. It's the kind of thing I'd expect from Donald Trump, but not from you.

@SubJunk Of course you have, whatever logic you choose I think Sami's point was that it would benefit UMS if this was tested before it was merged.

Yes, JNA won't work on FreeBSD without some tweaking. To just build ignoring the JNA errors, you can add "-DskipTests" as an argument.

Ok - I assumed you had some instructions you were following. "mvn external:install" is a one-time operation to install some dependencies. The build itself is done with (for a Linux build) mvn package -Plinux There is no FreeBSD build profile, so "linux" is probably the closest. The other profiles ar...

Whatever instructions you have read, they are very old and outdated.

Instead, run

HEIC can be opened on a computer in theory. The problem is that Apple has chosen to use a patent and license encumbered format, which means that the decoding is only available for commercial, licensed solutions. HEIC basically use H.265 to compress the images, so free open source libraries will prob...

I know as good as nothing about Philips TV's (I had some from the 70's, but that's hardly relevant), but neither UPnP AV nor DLNA has any subtitles support. As a result, there is no standard way to handle this. Panasonic has made one non-standard way and Samsung has made another. As far as I know, t...
