Unable to play on PS3

[gabriels]

I am unable to play Game of Thrones season 5 on my PS3.
The sound and video gets weird when HBO logo is presented and the series opening starts.

Have you tried to play this file with FFmpeg instead of Mencoder?

FFmpeg is the default video engine and it shows in the debug log:

gabriels what you write means that FFmpeg is making thumbnail not to play video. Please repeat the bug by starting to play the video before you send the log. I don't know how it is possible but your debug.log shows that you started to play Game.of.Thrones.S05E10.MKV with Mencoder not the default FFmpeg.

I have disabled MEncoder in the configuration and restarted UMS.
Now it is FFMpeg and still the same result.
Video is unplayable when HBO logo starts at the opening of the chapter.

First of all please set the default renderer to "Unknown renderer" and let UMS to correctly recognize renderers. Now UMS shows PS3 on adresses 10.0.0.1, 10.0.0.3 and also 10.0.0.4 which is your PC. Second untick at the FFmpeg setting page the "Defer to MEncoder when transcoding problematic subtitles".
Please before you try again to play the problematic file set the debug to TRACE level. And at the end please hit the button "Pack debug file" and send the generated .zip file not only debug.log

Changed the settings as instructed and it's now working great.
I don't know which one fixed it (the "renderer" or the "defer") but I'm happy with the result.
Attached the debug file for reference.
