I think something has gone wrong with the database upgrade between versions as I see mention of a missing table in the database. INFO 2023-02-07 17:56:33.042 [main] Upgrading database "medias" table "VIDEO_METADATA_ACTORS" from version 1 to 2 TRACE 2023-02-07 17:56:33.043 [main] ...

I'm not sure what you mean by the subtitles do not fade and for them to disappear you have to advance the film. Do you mean old subtitles are staying on the screen when new ones are being displayed? Could you post logs so I can see what UMS is doing? (see the section in red above) Also a posting a p...

UMS should install the right version of the JRE. It could be that an old version was already installed by another program on your system.

See if there is a way to uninstall any java on your computer then reinstall UMS

That was another problem that I was trying to figure out when I got hit with the initialization error bug. I was sent a test build with that bug fixed but when I tried to replicate the login problem it was working fine again. Even reinstalling the main version it was working so I don't know what cau...

The bit I was referring to was to fix that "element" is null error You can fix this by unchecking "Enable external network" at the bottom of the general settings tab in the old GUI or set external_network =false in UMS.conf (I had to edit the conf as it did not save the setting f...

Resume should be working if turned on. Will need logs to see what is happening if this is not working. Depending on if the video is being streamed or transcoded it will be up to the renderer to remember the last position played and resume from there. If you turn transcoding off though then resume wi...

UMS should only be transcoding when the video is not supported by the renderer you are playing it on and it allows it to be converted to a format that can be played. This is all setup in the supported formats section of the renderer's conf file If UMS Is not picking the right conf it might unnecessa...

I think that part of the old GUI might be broken as I could not get that option to turn off and save either. Works fine turning back on though.

You can edit the UMS.conf in C:\ProgramData\UMS to change the option "external_network =false", make sure UMS is not running when you change it.

I have emerged these 2 posts as I think they may be the same thing. As far as I can tell non-English characters in filenames should not cause any problems with playback and I don't see any errors relating to that. These errors seem to be related to a recent bug that emerged. more info here . This ma...

This is a known problem hat had been fixed for the next release. A temporary fix is to turn off the external network by setting "external_network =false" in the UMS.conf
