UMS 7.6.1 - WD TV Live - MKV

Post by pkroll »

Hello Community,

I hope it's ok to make a new post, because of a new UMS version.

1) UMS 7.6.1 installed "clean". (All old version files uninstalled and deleted before)
2) Create TRACE Logs with UMS
3) Tried to play MKV video file with WD TV Live
4) "Not supported file type" error on WD TV Live
5) Packed debug files with UMS
6) Full log ZIP added to this post

This problem is since UMS 7.6.0 (7.5.0 and older versions are all fine)

It would be really useful if you could attach logs from 7.5.0 too so we can compare, ideally playing the same file

Hello,

ok, no problem...

here are the logs with UMS 7.5.0 (All is fine playing like it should).

The problems are since 7.6.0 (all older versions were fine)

Thanks in advance!

Hi Community,

i uploaded the log zip to compare, but i got no answer so far ... :(
My guess, it's not really complicated, because UMS 7.5.0 and all before were fine playing this (these) file(s).

hello,

I also have a WD. It's strange I have no problem to read the mkv.

Most of my MKV's are playing fine. But since 7.6.0 there are a couple of MKV's which "are not supported types" by WD TV Life anymore.
UMS 7.5.0 and all releases before were absolutely fine with playing the the MKV's.

Hello @pkroll,

sadly you are affected by 2 news bugs.
As a workaround you can disable the "HTTPv2" in the general configuration tab from the GUI, and if you still get some issue replace the following line from your WD renderer's configuration file:

Code: Select all

Supported = f:mpegps|mpegts   m:video/mpeg
by this instead:

Code: Select all

TranscodeVideo = MPEGTS-H264-AC3
Supported = f:mpegts          m:video/vnd.dlna.mpeg-tts
Supported = f:mpegps            m:video/mpeg
and replace "video/vnd.dlna.mpeg-tts" by "video/mpeg2ts" if it work better for you.

And restart UMS.
But it is just workarounds.

I need to know which files in particular are now failing, so I can look for them in the logs
