Thanks for the release! Lately UMS start is slow as it's "Checking MPlayer font cache...", is that an expected behavior or just the 1st run after installation?
Regarding close captioning, is it supported on PS3? (it seems support was added in v4.40 for it as per http://us.playstation.com/support/syste ... /index.htm)

Thanks! Wolf.

Edit: Nevermind, known issue with VLC puking on LPCM audio from tsMuxer. Didn't know if it would be fixed in the newer version of tsMuxer, but appears not.

No issue with "regular" usage or on the PS3.

I've created braviaR series conf file and uploaded it to a thread in the renderer section. Could you include that in next release.

The file was updated days ago but I hadn't updated the version info in the database :) I've done that now

Good question. The only thing that has changed is that now we let you know we are checking the font cache. We always did it but the text displayed as "Searching for renderers".

I'm using PS3 4.50 but I can't see the closed captioning option. Weird.

I understand problem but I see ffmpeg in directory where I extract tgz, but when i start UMS.sh it can't find it

edit: only fix I found is install (outdated) ffmpeg to system, and not using the one in *.tgz, like it was broken in ums.jar and it dosn't look inside executed directory but somewere else
