Hi,
see the attached log files. This behaviour is reproducible and remained after switching the encoder from ffmpeg to MEN. It started to happen after a recent update of UMS.
I am running Win10, 64bit, and a Samsung MU8000
Help is appreciated, as usual

Noone?
At lot more files are now concerned. UMS says it started playing, but nothing appears on my tv screen.

Thank you, but according to my firewall settings all rules for JAVA are set to "Allow the connection".
today, something new happened: i scrolled through a directory on my tv, and it suddenly froze. Couldnt navigate anymore. Here is what happened according to the normal log:
23:30:47 INFO Started playing **** on your [TV] Samsung 8 Series (55)
23:30:52 INFO Started playing **** on your [TV] Samsung 8 Series (55)
23:30:54 INFO Stopped playing**** on your [TV] Samsung 8 Series (55)
23:30:57 INFO Started playing **** on your [TV] Samsung 8 Series (55)
23:30:58 INFO Stopped playing **** on your [TV] Samsung 8 Series (55)
23:31:00 INFO Started playing **** on your [TV] Samsung 8 Series (55)
23:31:01 INFO Stopped playing **** on your [TV] Samsung 8 Series (55)
....(list continues)
I dont know if its related to UMS or to my remote control, but apparently UMS started streaming every single file i was scroling through. Nothing happened on screen, though.
Right now UMS has lost much of its functionality for me, unfortunately. And it used to work like a charm some months ago -.-
