Re: scanning folder stuck on some .mp4 files

Yes I think they all had CC1, but ironically they were also all .MP4

All my MKV files worked (but does MKV not support CC1 embedded format?)

Anyhow, I am re-encoding the suspect MP4s to MKV, not sure that will fix it or not.

Will wait for .12 of UMS. thank you...

Re: scanning folder stuck on some .mp4 files

My apologies friends, seems this is the same issue as this thread:
viewtopic.php?t=16494

scanning folder stuck on some .mp4 files

Hi UMS Friends,

Have been using UMS for many years, no issues. Steadily upgrading versions with no issues either.

Am now on 14.10.1, and all of a sudden when my media library is scanned upon startup, the scan seems to get hung on "some" folders that have a .MP4 file. I was able to confirm this ...

[SOLVED] Videos suddenly not playing normally, ALL file sizes now gone

Hi Mik_s and Boss,

The problem has been solved, and my sincere apologies for not doing more investigative work on my network earlier on.

The issue, as you can imagine, had nothing to do whatsoever with UMS.

The issue was that my AP that was connected to my wall, had a bad connection with the ...

Re: Videos suddenly not playing normally, ALL file sizes now gone

Yes Boss, I will run the crystaldrivemark tool on the networked USB2 drive and post the results.

My TV is plugged into an AP right next to it which then goes to a switch. Switch goes to my master router where the PC running UMS is located. Again everything is GigE. My Cat5 cable runs are a bit long ...

Re: Videos suddenly not playing normally, ALL file sizes now gone

Thanks for the reply Boss and mik_s. I will absolutely post the .conf file and logs shortly (tomorrow), and will capture the traces while the TV is choking on a video file.

As for my network setup it is all 100% wired GigE. The media files are on a USB2.0 drive. I had some disconnects when running ...

Re: Videos suddenly not playing normally, ALL file sizes now gone

ok, so had to first enable the "Show the "#-TRANSCODE-#" folder" under Navigation Settings. Done

Results:
1. I tried to play a few video files that were marked "no transcoding"
2. Most files started to play, but buffering was absolutely horrendous.

conclusion is that the user experience was very ...
