Automatically play next file
Posted: Tue Jul 29, 2014 2:08 pm
Hi,
I've noticed some problems with UMS that appear to have manifested themselves over time.
-The first and most annoying is that UMS no longer plays the next file in a folder automatically. I thought this was due to a settings change I made but I can't find what may have caused it (I thought it was due to disabling the Resume function). Turning that back on however did not fix the issue. As UMS is used to stream media to my children's TV it's ideal that it plays the next file in the folder so they don't lose their minds every 30 minutes.
-The second problem I am having is that for some unknown reason UMS is no longer displaying "thumbnails" of the video files within a specific folder. It appears to only affect this one folder. What is happening is all of the files, even newly added ones, are using the image file for an old .mp3 that was in the folder a long time ago. This is moderately annoying. I've tried everything I can think of short of deleting the folder.
-The third and final problem I am experiencing is that occasionally when Resume was enabled the original file would go missing and only the Resume: ETC was left within the folder. This meant I could not start watching from the beginning as the Resume file would freak out if I attempted to rewind to the beginning of the show. As a side a lot of the time the Resume file would not actually remember the position it was stopped and arbitrarily pick a point towards the end of the file.
I hope someone can assist with these silly (I bet they're really something easy to fix) problems.
