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...

I see that all your mp4 videos will always be streamed because your config is forcing it and UMS is not doing any checking to see if they are supported. The videos I see being transcoded are mepg which is strange as this is a basic format that should work on everything and is the default format used...

Could you post your logs so I can see what is happening? See the link in my sig. At a guess I would say the video is being transcoded and something might be wrong here. From what you have said the codecs used in that video should be able to play on the TV without transcoding so I will need to see wh...

It would be better to have FFmpeg with the highest priority as it has better support, so change the transcoding engines priority back to default. You have set a max bitrate for audio, might be best to leave this at default too as this is lower then default. Start with the default transcoding profile...

But did match a format in the SupportedExternalSubtitlesFormats renderer configuration setting Matched support line f:mp4 v:h264|mp4 a:aac-lc|he-aac|ac3 m:video/mp4 Final verdict: "Cast.Away.2000.1080p.BrRip.x264.YIFY.mp4" will be streamed It can match a specific subtitle format for certa...
