It should probably be intuitive, but using the "X" on the UMS window won't close it, just minimize it to the system tray. You need to click the "quit" button on the GUI itself to actually quit. It's not uncommon to "servers" to work this way though, as you generally won...

I need a new log after the plugins have been removed, as were the most likely reason. Just to give a short explanation, what you're describing isn't that unlikely. UMS is a threaded program, and the threads do all kind of different things. There's one particular thread that runs the GUI (draws the G...

I see that you're using two plugins, MovieInfo and Channels. Nether of these have been updated for a long time as far as I know, so I don't think they will work with later versions of UMS. Remove them from your "plugins" folder and I expect your issues to go away.

First of all, read the text in red above. We need a log to be able to see what's going wrong. If UMS is correctly configured, you shouldn't need to convert files except in very rare cases - UMS is converting files as needed, called transcoding. I'm not familiar with the GUI hanging, which is what yo...

Great, thank you. This makes it much easier to understand, and hopefully to reproduce

I can't see anything "useful" in the new log. It looks like everything works fine and that UMS is told to stop playing by the renderer at a point, which it does. Have any of you with this problem tried transcoding with another UPnP/DLNA server and verified if the same thing happens? It loo...

We have made some improvements to the logging of the network communication since your previous log. A trace log with 6.7.4 might shed some more light on the issue, although I have my doubts.

This is the 6.7.3 release thread, so you shouldn't write about 6.7.4 here. The "sort problem" isn't solved as I've never been able to understand what you mean. You should create a thread about it where you explain and/or show pictures of the problem along with log files.

Ok, I've found the reason for the strange size. The files you can't play are probably those who are transcoded. Transcoded files has an unknown size, as they are created while being played. There is no way for UMS to know the size in advance, without first transcoding the whole file (which would tak...

UMS will show your folder structure by default. It also has the ability to show the "media library" which has for a reason unknown to me been renamed to "cache". For the "cache" folder to appear, make sure that you have enabled "Enable the cache" and disabled ...
