The new UMS version does not work well on our TV.
I had to install the old version of UMS 3.6.4 on my computer
On TV I've installed a VLC player through google play that sees UMS and reads all types of formats. Unfortunately, it does not show subtitles.

As I mentioned before - looks like Android TV's like our new Bravia's are not good with most Media Servers. I need to test other ways. My PS4 Pro works very well with UMS I had installed ver. 6.7.2. Now I test 7.7.0. We'll see.

Edit.
Little update - VLC works fine.. just fine. No forwarding or rewinding in normal way. Subtitles working fine. It’s not UMS problem. It’s that crap Android video app on tv. I’ll check other apps, not today. But for now VLC or PS4 is enough
