So, what you are stating is that UMS cannot possibly use a new conf file! And the default Viera conf file cannot be changed under any circumstances! And, as I have been advised elsewhere, you should not under any circumstances, run more then one UMS at a time if you expect it to work at all, which i...

As discovered, whatever profile you select in the (Select Profile) option, UMS goes ahead and uses invalid and non existent profiles! This is no doubt where the issue comes from. Three profiles but all corrupted! Please remove this function for the time being and explain that UMS only works with one...

I mean that when you select no transcoding all of the video options play. Those with DTS or TrueHD don't play audio, as expected. When you select transcode none of the videos play at all in GZ but some are being transcoded in Viera. I'll try sending the file again once I can get UMS actually working...

Thanks.

Having created a new conf file I find that my TV just wont display any shared folder and as a consequence I am unable to view or play any media at all. The TV constantly displays 'Reading...' When I use the standard Viera conf file the TV does read the files (I accept that, according to other posts,...

If you create shared folders then amend later (I have added the 'UMS Testing' and 'Test Disk' folders) although the amendment shows in the log, none of my devices can see the new folders. 1.jpg 2.jpg No amount of turning PC, UMS or devices on an off again works. The only solution I have found is to ...

Transcode settings not updating. In attempting to resolve a conf file for my device, I followed the advice given and have activated the 'Show The Transcode Folder'. This has left me with another headache as the icons related to the folder transcoding settting does not appear top be documented anywhe...
