Recent changes somewhere stops films showing

[topscal]

Hi
I use a samsung home cinema which supports DNLA to play some films on the main TV. Its always been a little 'finiky' about listing the main movies but more recently it would only show TV shows and not films. I have a folder that is shared with a single TV show and a single film and it only shows the TV show but on the home cinema has it listed so its the name of the show then the season then the episode in sub dirs. The film isnt there at all. If i was to use the main TV's media server that shows them all fine. Am lost as to what it could be - I even tried re-downloading a much older build in the hope they would all come back to no avail. Anyone have any ideas as to the cause..

Meant to add when looking at the two files using MKVToolnix they appear to be the same both audio and video:

TV:
MPEG-4p10/AVC/H.264 1280x720
AC-3 48000 Hz, 6 Channels

Film:
MPEG-4p10/AVC/H.264 1920x800
AC-3 48000 Hz, 6 Channels
+ SubRip and chapters...

Thanks in advance - debug logs attached.

You are probably using the "Media Library" folder where UMS tries to sort your media into logical folders like

Code: Select all

Show
--Season 1
----Episode 1 - Pilot
----Episode 2 - something happens
----Episode 3 - hjgdjhdjg
--Season 2
etc

as long as they are names something like show-S01E01-pilot(1080p by someone).mkv

Films should end up in their own folder as they don't follow this format and usually only have the year like Some.film(2020).mkv

I personally don't use the Media Library folder as all my media is already sorted how I want it and it isn't configurable.
If you just want to play what is in the shared folders directly, turn off "Show the 'Media Library' folder" in navigation settings tab.

@mik_s that did the trick, disabling the media library put it back so it would display all files. I also updated to 9.4.3 so between those two suggestions it now back working as before.

Thank you for your help.
