How to force external subtitles and see HTTP requests/responses

[Nadahar]

It looks like both files are streamed as-is, no muxing is done as far as I can see.

OK, that would be good news because then there should be a way to fix minidlna for this TV. Thanks for your help!

Currently UMS is sending these 2 responses to this TV:

Code: Select all

<res xmlns:dlna="urn:schemas-dlna-org:metadata-1-0/" protocolInfo="http-get:*:video/avi:DLNA.ORG_OP=01" pv:subtitleFileType="SRT" pv:subtitleFileUri="http://192.168.1.134:5001/get/29/subtitle0000myfile.srt" size="576993989" duration="00:22:38.00" resolution="1280x720" bitrate="424800" nrAudioChannels="6" sampleFrequency="48000">http://192.168.1.134:5001/get/29/myfile.mkv</res>

<res protocolInfo="http-get:*:text/srt:*">http://192.168.1.134:5001/get/29/subtitle0000myfile.srt</res>

Is there a way to force UMS to send only one of these tags: pv: and res protocolInfo ?

In order to add support for this TV to minidlna we need to know which one of these tags is needed.

I think you need to build it yourself and disable what you don't want then. It's pretty easy to get UMS up and running by Using Eclipse.

I've set it up on multiple VM's for tracing under different OS'es and circumstances, what I generally do is:

• Install git
• Install Maven
• Install Eclipse
• Checkout https://github.com/UniversalMediaServer ... Server.git
• In Eclipse, import "Existing Maven Project", choose the root folder of the git repo
• Run UMS from Eclipse, you can debug, trace, change code as you wish
