You can download it from the front page.

This release adds and improves support for many renderers, increases transcoding speed, improves file support and more!

  • Renderers:
    • Added support for LG WebOS TVs

Hey !

I've a Yamaha Receiver RXV-2065, and it shows up in UMS as Philips Aurea TV.

Is it fixable to get the right equipment showing up ?

hi,
This version plays well with ext-sub on iPad using MEncoder. However, Vietnamese subtitles cannot be played correctly (Vietnamese characters are shown as square box), I guess it could be some settings about font encode or something else. this is a sample subtitle for reference. Please help by showing me how to config correctly

In 5.0.0-a1 we have added new ways of identifying renderers, so please give us logs from that version so we can do that for you :)

Sorry but I think you'll have to wait until the next 5.0.0 release, since we added a new detection method in 5.0.0 that isn't in version 4. We will hopefully do our next 5.0.0 release soon!
