Hi I have a few questions about my device, that is not officially supported however it works out of the box with a few problems just using a standard Samsung config.

My TV is a TCL 43P1FS which supports a lot of different codecs including h265
I've attached the debug logs including the manually edited config file that I have been working with.
In the debug logs I have played a few different files that are presenting the following errors.

The problems I am getting though are as follows
- No seeking when file is transcoded - The TV doesn't allow it.

- Thumbnails don't show

- Subtitles work and different subtitle tracks can be selected however when I select no subtitle track in the TV options menu it still displays the last selected track insteasd of cancelling subtitles all together

- Subtitles also show ( &apos ) instead of just an ( ' ) for example "don't" will show as "don&apost"

- Playing most xvid encoded avi files without transcoding them causes the video framerate to look like it has been halved whilst the audio is still in sync, therefore I have to force transcode them which sucks because then I can't seek through the file.

- 10 bit x265 files play however there is artifacts all over the screen which I persume is because the inbuilt CODEC doesn't support 10 bit x265 files (Normal x265 files play fine). Is there a way to stream normal ones and transcode if they're 10 bit?

- 6.1 channel sound isn't supported by the TV... a message pops up saying unsupported audio.

Note: I have commented out a line in the TCL.config to force .avi files to stream as is (for testing purposes) - I usually uncomment that line so they will be transcoded so they aren't skipping.

Thankyou!

Afaik that should be default behavior, see comment by SubJunk about SupportedVideoBitDepths here

You'll have to edit your Supported lines in your renderer config

For an example this makes UMS transcode to stereo if there are more than sound 2 channels in any given wmv file.

On Sony KD65-XD7505 (Android TV) :
I had it work once on a video then i tried fast forwarding... Now nothing plays even if i reboot UMS and the TV...
Here are the logs

Hi Algrenadine,

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Unive ... viaXD.conf

But as told in this configuration file you'll need to add into your UMS.conf file placed in your UMS profile folder (not into the UMS.conf found in your Universal "Media Server" program folder).

Hoping that help.
If not don't hesitate to post a new log while using this new setting.

Is there a conf. file for the Yamaha rx a2050?
It is recognized as a sony xperia phone for some reason?

Hi markoma,

try this configuration file: (place it in your "renderer" folder of your "Universal Media Server" program directory) Please, don't forget to give feedback

Hi,

is there a config. file for the PS4 PRO ? UMS seems to recognize my ps4 pro like a normal PS4 si it thinks the max resolution is 1080x1920 instead of 2160x3840.

Thanks!
