The closest i came to playing transcoded file was this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=URyq8Ug2boY
Starts, but then restarts and the sound is async

As mentioned i kinda gave up, but if you have some specific tests you want me to do, i'll do it for the sake of the communitaeh :P

I usually build a small JAR containing only UMS code without dependencies. That's the one I provided and it failed. Sorry about that. Try this one https://drive.google.com/open?id=1dGErd ... CvI6wuTZ4w

I'm sorry, but UMS won't start when i use your jar.
I can see javaw.exe launches.. but i never see GUI and cannot see server on TV's

Let me know if you want me to try something else.

Can you try running at command line?

Code: Select all

java -jar ums.jar
You can provide me the console output.

Ok, the program could not start because of some old database version in "C:\ProgramData\UMS\database" so i deleted those files and got a bit further.

The GUI still doesent launch if i try to start UMS.exe

I tried to run the jar file by commandline as you suggested, i've attached the output for you.

I can see "Universal Media Server" on my TV, but there's no folders available. (and i've shared W:\Test which contains one file)

Looks like your Samsung sends a request before the server has successfully initialized. Since there's no response from the server at this instant, there's no further attempt from the TV. Can you switch on the TV after the server has initialized? You can check if the server is up by hitting http://192.168.1.133:9001 . Also verify that the test folder lists content in the UI.

BTW your debug log is located at C:\ProgramData\UMS\debug.log . You can send me that file for future results.
