Something is wrong since 3.4.0:

1. ffmpeg is used by default even if mencoder selected or ffmpeg is disabled and unsuccessfully:

   Code: Select all

   [pool-12-thread-2] Starting "C:\Program Files\Universal Media Server\win32\ffmpeg.exe" -loglevel fatal -ss 0 -i "G:\ums\Spring Parade.avi" -an -an -an -an -an -an -an -an -an
   [pool-12-thread-2] Attaching thread: ffmpeg.exe-2
   [ffmpeg.exe-2-2] At least one output file must be specified
   [ffmpeg.exe-2-Cleanup] Stopping process: ffmpeg.exe-2

2. chapters are not generated in 3.4.0+ at all, they are good in 3.3.0

I can't see how to attach full log here, does it need to be posted in https://github.com/UniversalMediaServer ... ver/issues ?

Post the log in a new post here viewforum.php?f=9

Whats the ordering of files in the "new media" folder? It appears random.
Is there some reason the ordering preference isnt being applied to these files?
