[Resolved]Remember Playback Status with multiple devices...?
New here and just found UMS! Sounds awesome....
I currently use Plex Media Server with Plex Client and sometimes XBMC. I have a HTPC and Roku 3 and I want Media Centers on both that can share playback status. So I can start TV shows/Movies in one room and finish in the other and the server would show partial status and also show the season progress the same in both rooms.
Right now Plex works for this but I miss XBMC in my living room... Plex does what I need but their Clients are sub-par for the HTPC and terrible looking for the Roku.
How do I get UMS to serve to XBMC(HTPC) and the Roku and for it share Playback Status?

Make sure the "Enable Video Resuming" checkbox is checked.

Re: [Resolved]Remember Playback Status with multiple devices
Im not sure we have a CONF file for RoKu...(yet...

Check your logs to see if the User-Agent is showing up for that device, if so then that means UMS can detect it as a Renderer.
At that point you'll have to create a custom CONF file for the Roku3.
PROTIP: use the "PS3.conf" as a base for your conf...
