Looks like VLC has changed how they display version numbers again so UMS cannot match anymore. Will need to see logs to find out exactly if this is the case or this is something else.

If you edit your conf for VLC to change UserAgentSearch to

Code: Select all

VLC\/\d{1,2}.\d{1,2}.\d{1,2}
UMS should match it.

You will still be able to play files if UMS can't make a match but it will probably make UMS transcode most things as it won't know what is supported, but this could cause problems with seeking.
