Is it possible to limit UMS to some specific folders ?

[Blackeyed]

First time user of UMS and i have problem, can't find option to just add 2-3 folders for scanning. Instead, UMS start to scan whole of my drives and I don't want to do that.

Is it possible to limit UMS to some specific folders ?

Ofcourse, look here: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=4209&p=21886#p21886

Of course I see that options, and I added my folder but UMS keep scanning thru all of my drives. On TV, when I start to using UMS i see all of my drives and folders...

And you restarted UMS after you made the changes?
"All drives" should only appear when you have not defined any folder.

If that's not the case, it may be a bug

I cant get file playing on my TV, everything is fine till point I start movie from TV, screen goes black with waiting pointer and wait and wait....movie never start

This what I see in log:

09:53:05 INFO Process C:\Program Files\Universal Media Server\win32\ffmpeg.exe has a return code of 1! Maybe an error occurred... check the log file
09:53:08 INFO Started playing Inside.Out.2015.1080p.3D.BluRay.Half-SBS.x264.DTS-WiKi.mkv on your [LG] webOS TV

Hmm, i don't know. Does it happen with all files? or can you get some formats working?
Can you get files playing if you try items in the #--transcode--# folder?

I would create a new topic, and call it "<YOUR EXACT TV MODEL> Cant play files"
And follow Problem Reporting Guidelines

I'm sure someone will be able to help.
