For some reason the forum held that post for approval. It should only do that for suspected spam. :? Only way I can be of any help is if I can see your logs to see if and why it is transcoding. One thing you have said that also makes me suspect a network problem is that the videos buffer even when p...

Sounds like a problem with the database.

Could you post your logs (see the section in red above) so I can see what is happening?

Sounds like something is wrong with your network and its speed has significantly dropped. This is the only thing I can think of they would make UMS suddenly transcode videos that would previously stream. Only way to be sure is if you post your logs. See the section in red above. How is your network ...

Check your sound settings on your TV as something must be stopping the Yamaha seeing the DTS track from the TV when UMS is streaming the video. My old F series Samsung TV does not have eARC but it does have a digital audio out setting that I can select DTS. Yours might have something similar for pas...

It's not the scanning that changed the IDs but browsing the folders. I think this is because files can be added and deleted and would create a mess to keep track of all of this. There is still a scan on startup option but this only check for new files and scans them which should take very little tim...

See if your TV has a eARC or other audio passthough and that should play DTS on the Yamaha, but I know nothing about this to be of much help. From what I understand the TV will just ignore the audio and pass it to the Yamaha if set up properly. In this case you would want to keep the last conf that ...

I don't know anything about how to do playlists but I know if you use the web player to access UMS, the ID's are dynamic and are generated on the fly when a folder is browsed so are not guaranteed to be the same across restarts. I will need to see your logs to see how you are using this though as I ...

When the video is transcoded it will use the codec for audio in the TranscodeVideo option which is MPEGTS-H264-AC3 for this conf. The other one that can be used is AAC but that is not DLNA-compliant. I know little about DTS but from what I understand if there is a DTS track it will be added as a sec...

There was not an exact match to your TV so it is falling back to an old conf to give some compatibility. As this conf does not list any 4K support it is transcoding to 1080p but probably not in a way this model is able to play so gives an error. I have modified the Samsung-UHD.conf which appears to ...

I have no idea about this but from the message UMS is trying to open something from a temp folder but that folder is protected by Norton's data protector. I tried looking on my computer to see what that folder it could be but it does not exist, there is no c:\users\windows\ folder for me but I am on...
