Samsung (2019) fails to play .avi files in 9.2.0
Posted: Tue Jan 21, 2020 2:17 pm
Good evening,
I started having trouble playing some .avi files on my Samsung UN55RU8000FXZA television through UMS. The TV simply shows a popup saying "Unsupported Feature" and 3 buttons: Troubleshoot, Skip, Stop. Troubleshoot brings up a screen with supported file types. avi files ARE supported, so I can't diagnose the problem easily.
Some of these worked previously, but I don't know what caused them to stop. Unfortunately, I updated UMS to 9.2.0 before I determined if my conf file was at fault. I don't know if the change was caused by a Samsung update recently (I am not aware of one, however).
I had previously been using a modified .conf file, since this Samsung does not support DTS. I did a clean install, so I lost the conf file (but I downloaded it from these forums... I believe it was called Samsung-Q6series.conf).
Is it possible for me modify a conf file to allow these avi files to stream properly?
Thanks so much for your help-
