Version 2.4.1 is released

Post by SubJunk »

General:

You can download it from the front page.

This release adds support for Sharp Aquos TVs, 32-bit Linux, and RTMP support for FFmpeg which will allow plugins to become better!


Changes since 2.4.0:
  • General:
    • Improved autostart support
    Renderers:
    • Added support for Sharp Aquos TVs
    • Added support for Showtime 4
  • External Components:
    • Updated MPlayer/MEncoder for Windows and Linux to SB50, which:
      • Silences meaningless errors
      • Supports 32-bit Linux installations
    • Updated FFmpeg for Windows and Linux to SB7, which:
      • Adds RTMP support
      • Supports 32-bit Linux installations

Upgrade Notes:

For versions prior to 1.5.0:
It is recommended to delete your UMS.conf file prior to installing this version. For Windows users you can choose the "clean install" option while installing instead.

For all versions:
It is recommended (but usually not necessary) to uninstall the older version before installing the new one.


Thanks:

Cameron Spiers for building the OS X version

Will this version work with Jumpy (Automatic FFmpeg for subtitle support + Play nice with PMSE) without having to use Infidel's update.jar?

I doubt it since he has not submitted any code to us for that yet

Yeah I noticed he hasn't been around much lately. He been busy with something? Thanks for the heads up though. I'll wait until the next major version update to update again. Hopefully he'll submit his source code for the update.jar to you the next time he's around.

It seems with the later releases the setting 'start automatically with windows' is set after you install the newer version even though I have turned it off (and saved it), maybe there are other settings which also keep resetting..

I've noticed that too. I think it's because it adds it to your startup folder in the Windows start menu.

Hey guys, I have an issue.

Since 2.4.0, my shared folders aren't detected on the XBOX 360, I can see an go into the Media server, but no folders/files.

Now, when I rollback to 2.3.0, it works just fine (I can see my shared folders and files and then play my videos). Wondering if someone else has this issue as well or if I'm doing something wrong.

The only config I apply everytime I install UMS are the Network Settings (network interface, server IP, port, etc.), and then I add my Media folders.

Of course, I've uninstalled/installed with "clean install".

Like I said, 2.3.0 works fine for now, but I had to uninstall the newest versions because they didn't work for me. Any idea on what's wrong? (sorry for my english BTW).

Thanks a lot! :P

Edit. Nope, it just doesn't work on 2.4.0/2.4.1. Tried again and applied EXACTLY the same config changes that I did when installing 2.3.0, and it just doesn't detect any of my folders :/ Rolled back yet again, applied the same config and worked fine on 2.3.0.
