I don't know anything about apple TV or VLC for ios, but I can tell from the IP's you posted that you've probably got the network configuration wrong. Assuming you're using a /24 mask, they are on different subnets. DLNA doesn't travel across subnets, as it uses UPnP which relies on multicast. I thi...

ls isn't used by UMS at all, the list is built dynamicly and then sorted. I can't read Japanese so I can't see what is wrong with the sorting, but is the UMS sorting completely wrong or is it just some elements that's out of place?

What does it mean that it won't transcode properly? Are there audio artifacts, sync issues, no audio or won't it play at all? Does the PS4 support DTS, and if not - what is it supposed to be transcoded into? Playstation4.conf should be included if at all modified. Also, the full logs are needed, not...

"Malformed data" probably means that it's a format it doesn't understand. This is a configuration issue. If you launch UMS with both "HEADLESS" and "TRACE" as options and then post the log file (debug.log) after trying to play some files we can probably see what's wrong...

That is a bug I'm afraid, and even more scary: it's been there for a long time (since around 6.0.0) and is made by me :oops: I'm making a fix now, but as a workaround set language = in UMS.conf. You have to set it to one of the following values: "af", // Afrikaans "ar", // Arabic...

Forget about "minimized", that's simply that the GUI starts minimized.

You have to use the "console" or "headless" (they are identical) option after UMS.sh, but skip the "--":

While it would be possible to display the file name instead of the tag title, it would create problems when sorting by artist or album for example. There might be other issues as well. Creating a parsing logic for filenames (to parse album, artist and title) would be hopeless as there are so many di...

There's nothing UMS can do to make the PS4 read tags, but UMS use the "Title" from the tag as the name of an audio file, and I also think album and artist is used for grouping in the cache/media library.

Great, thank you for the info snakebyte

I don't think you can. If the tags are wrong, why don't you just correct them? Tags normally has much more accurate information not to mention that they have more information than filenames do. There are loads of tagging software out there, than can automate tagging or make editing them quick and ea...
