This Safari browsing issue is fixed in the current development code (5.0.2), but the bad news is that while you can browse and also push media to your TV from Safari, you can't actually watch video in iOS Safari because its html5 component only supports mp4, and ffmpeg's mp4 output isn't suitable for on-the-fly streaming.

EDIT: correction, the fix did make it into 5.0.1, which I just re-tested (with ums running on linux over https). ipad browsing from both Safari and Chrome is working for me, there must be a separate issue here.

EDIT2: I also retested from iPhone, with ums 5.0.1 running in both linux and Windows over http. Browsing is working for me in all these cases (I haven't tried ums running on OSX, though). If it's not working for you, try deleting your ums cookies/data in Safari, then post TRACE logs if no joy.

Browser access via port 9001 to UMS 5.0.1 from Safari on iPhone / iPad now working.

However as mentioned earlier in this thread, it's functionally limited as IOS HTML5 on those platforms wont render any video.

Also browsing on iphone is painful given html formatting.

Wishlist:

1.Responsive UI design for web interface for smartphone, tablet and PC
2.HTML port options for unencrypted port 80 and HTTPS encrypted 443
3.Video to render on all HTML5 browsers across common platforms and transcode to low bandwidth for playback via WAN. i.e. access UMS from internet using port forward etc

Not much then :-)

Thanks
