Tried it with the renderer.conf Custom Mencoder Settings. However, when a video file has subtitles (usually external in the form of .srt), the subtitles flash continuously at every subtitle line appearance from normal font to large and the screen colors are distorted when that happens.. As if the tr...

Which file I need to alter?

I assume that the mencoder_decode within UMS can be expressed in the renderer file by the CustomMencoderOptions flag within the renderer file, correct?

Moreover, do I need to recompile Mencoder, as per your last perl lines?

Anyone?

I have a Sony Bravia KDL-32EX500 and I have been using PMS and then UMS for some years.

OK, will take a pic with my phone and send the log...

I had included the expert encoder settings in the BraviaEX renderer file in the first place, sorry if it was not clear in my phrasing :? I just installed version 2.2.5 and made the modification you mention. Whether the line was present or not it made no difference. I used all transcoding engines ava...

Excellent software!

TV Sony KDL-32EX600..

Issue with renderer (16:9 files appear squeezed on top & bottom, cannot resize [as with xvid] to vertically interpolate/maximize video screen)

Channels plugin not working to either PS3 or Sony Bravia..

I enabled the codec settings you mention but I lost all subtitles in mkv 16:9 files.. I tried both and/or ASS & fontconfig, to no effect. Subtitles were restored only when the expert codec settings specified were removed.

MEncoder, TSmuxer, FFMpeg were tried out.

Any ideas?

I set the plugin directory to point to a full access folder and it seems to work ok now with searches etc (albeit UMS runs with Admin privileges). However, several songs that are returned after a search are unplayable. The debug log indicates that are not found at the host. Can GrooveShark return hi...

UMS 2.11, Channels Plugin 2.0.6, all script links verified etc. However, I cannot get any playback even from YouTube or any other RTMP A/V link.
