Reason why I use BubbleUPNP is that I don't have to get up from couch to get next episode playing on TV. Can you do that with just with UMS? If you can, how?

OK please add

Code: Select all

chromecast_extension = false

to the C:\ProgramData\UMS\UMS.conf and test it.

I have problem with testing this. When I browse with BubbleUPNP app on my phone UMS folders via BubbleUPNP Server I don't see any video files. If I directly choose UMS folders I see files but none of them are able to play via Chromecast.

You can "bump" (i.e. push) any item from the web interface (available in your phone's web browser at <ums ip>:9001, e.g. 192.168.1.7:9001) to any controllable renderer, which includes chromecasts. See here.
