Hey!

This update solved my problem: viewtopic.php?f=9&t=231&p=1121#p1121

Was this a bug in MEncoder, or UMS?

Another question, how do I remove the folder 'Web', right when entering UMS on the PS3?

Just FYI

This version and 1.4.0 seem to work fine for me at least on Windows 8...

Regarding the success mentioned above with 1.5.0, I am wondering if anyone has done a clean install of 1.5.0 on Windows and gotten channels to work using the plugin installer. Everything was working fine for a long time. Based on what I read regarding 1.5.0 I decided to try a clean install. After doing so I have been banging my head against the channels plugin. Seems like the plugin installer is installing version 1.90 vs 1.91. I have been a long time user and wanted to see if anyone could report success with a clean install on Windows before I do a long write-up. Apologies if this is bad board etiquette or misuse of a topic.
