Are you using built-in ffmpeg/mencoder builds? I don't know if UMS for Linux/MacOS include custom binaries or you have to install one from some repository. OSX uses a pre-build version. The UMS version causes a Segment Fault so now using the latest version - no fault. I am attempting to build it lo...

Bump
A few hours of research answered a few details and presented a few more. The main post was rewritten to update.

Do you have an idea where I should look for ? :?: First: the 'Parse' error just means the 'parse' function returned an error. This is one error which has nothing to do with parsing or data other than the bit stream bandwidth check failed. You might want to try two things: 1 - General Configuration-...

I would like to revisit the idea floated by DeFlanko in the thread [CLOSED] Client Application (http://www.universalmediaserver.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=109). It was the line: But wouldn't it be nice to have a Windows/Mac/iOS/Android built app made specifically for the UMS? and the reference to a C...

Looking for more of a detailed description of the Subtitle & Transcoding handling and the configuration options. I see reoccurring (error) messages about 'ass' files and filters. I would like to understand what if any thing I can do to eliminate these. The messages include: DEBUG [ffmpeg-1-2] [A...

I forced the transcoding on all.

The video Blu-ray files seem to play. However, it does complain about the 'ass' filter: ???

This is the version I tested. Seems to work fine. I'll test more later forcing it to transcode on a few files to be sure.

Did a little more digging , found the other thread here confirming there is a version sensitivity. Seemed to to be the consensus on the wire the error is a segmentation fault. Loaded the latest OSX version 2.6.2 and got the following raw messages: DEBUG 19:48:59.387 [ffmpeg-1] Starting /Users/umsmkv...

Initial testing of Java 6 & 8 show most problems still exist: - Parsing characters: '*', '?' Problem is in the external library call Open() for files. Directory reading works. - File format Errors when "Media renderer" error seen (probably the cause) Cause is the max bitrate in the co...

This is due to the failed bitrate test:

• Reading MaxVideoBitrateMbps: "25"

Fixed by setting it to 80.
