..alas, I see your suggestion too garnered great interest...

Hi,

I wonder if anyone else is having the same trouble finding specific information for a specific render in the Media Renderer category.

I'd like to suggest building a subcategory structure for every renderer currently supported and a catch-all category for "new/unsupported" renderers.

Of course ...

...also, ensure path is 775. Share your UMS.conf and debug if still not working...

Ensure the ums and config directories are 775; ensure debug is 777. Configure ffmpeg, mencoder, etc with explicit path to binary...

Still works for me (Sony Bravia and Roku [even though I can't watch video on the Roku])

Just purchased a Roku 4 "thinking" I would be good to go with a little tweaking one of the Roku 3x confs on v5.5.

No Joy. Able to get the Roku 4 recognized (Roku/4400X) and can browse directories and even see both "cover" images and an image captured from the video. However, that's it, just sits at ...

Thanks Pen, will give it a try. On a similar front I did find a ppa that stays current with the latest 4.x.x and it did require a few additional libs, but alas still no joy. I wonder if there is something about 14.04 - I have noticed some weirdness with other java apps that I didn't experience with ...

Thanks Pen, I indeed did try the UMS bundled ffmpeg to no avail. When you say "You are missing a number of libs in your build compared to 4.1.2", can you elaborate? I have (I thought) enabled most, if not all, relevant ffmpeg features. I would be curious to know your compile command and the version ...

Good thought Pen, but going back and forth between 364 and 4.xx, still 364 displays and plays as before - 4xx no joy with displaying ffmpeg. Now on 413, still no joy; 364 working like a champ.

One other tidbit I just thought of, I'm using OpenJDK. Maybe I should try Oracle Java...hmm, maybe when I ...
