Hi

1. What happens if you just use the input field in the GUI? (General Configuration tab)?

2. Which UMS.conf did you edit?.. if you're on windows, the path of UMS.conf is: C:\ProgramData\UMS\UMS.conf
I'm not sure why there's also a UMS.conf in the program directory of UMS (exe) , anyways it's not used.

If you still don't succeed, you can filter devices by uuid instead of IP: viewtopic.php?f=9&t=8558
