Re: Updated Java, now no renderers being found.

Hi Valib, this helped me solve my issue.

I was using 32-bit Java because my web browser (Chrome) was 32-bit. Even before the Java update, Java was still 32-bit. So I am not sure why it changed all of a sudden (maybe they changed something in update 60?)

But I uninstalled 32-bit Chrome, installed 64-bit Chrome, and then installed both 64-bit and 32-bit Java.

Then I installed the latest 5.2.3 Java 8 version of UMS. My renderers were being found again!!!

Thank you very much for your help.

Interestingly, even though renderers were found, none of my videos would play (error 800288E1, something to do with subtitles I believe).
But I dropped down to version 5.1.4 and now everything is perfect again!
