Universal Media Server | Forum

I'm not sure what the windows syntax is as I have mine on a Linux server.
In my conf, it is:
folders = /home/media_mnt/Images, /home/media_mnt/Music, /home/media_mnt/Music Videos, /home/media_mnt/Karaoke Video, /home/media_mnt/Videos/Movies, /home/media_mnt/Videos/TV Series

This looks a bit strange to me. But I run mine on Linux and not sure about windows, # Shared folders # -------------- # A comma-separated list of absolute path names. # If empty, the default media folders on your computer will be chosen. That is: # On macOS: # - /user/Movies # - /user/Music # - /use...

I have a Yamaha RX 685. I have not played around with it that much with UMS but I did a bit of work on the conf file. Maybe it is worth trying.

I am quite sure you would only need to backup the directory "/home/ums/.config/UMS"
You could setup cron job to do it automatically at a specified time.
I don't think you would need to stop UMS but if you did, the cron job could stop UMS, do the backup and then start UMS again.

V10.12.0 does not have the Java problem on my Linux server.
Thanks

On my Gentoo Linux server, V10.11.0 won't start. There are no logs generated as UMS is not starting. It has to be with the inbuilt Java in UMS. My server already has Java on it and if I modify UMS.sh to stop the UMS inbuilt Java from starting, UMS starts fine. Is this by design, that if a Linux serv...

I think it could be your UMS.conf file. network_interface =eth2 #Is your LAN on eth2 (maybe try a space after the =. EG: = eth2) hostname =10.1.1.2 #An IP address doesn't go there. For now just make it: hostname = I am not sure for windows as I use linux but I am wondering about this: (try putting a...

Several times in the past we have been down this path before.
You ask me to do all this testing and I send you the results by private message.
But then I get no reply from you.

The truth is I'm over it now.

It plays movie files from a variety of web browsers without problems.
Yes, fixes the fastforward problem.
Plays movie files well which UMS wont play.
I believe it is based on around UMS V6.8.

For me UMS 7.4 works OK. I have tried every version of UMS after 7.4 but they have issues.
