I can't get UMS to show up on my XBOX 360, I'm using a mac. I've turned off my firewall (router & computer) and still no luck. The funny thing is version 4.4.0 and lower works perfectly (well, it has it's issues, but it can be seen on my xbox 360 2nd gen).
Does anyone else have this issue? How do I fix it?
Strange development. I got it to work for a moment, but it when i click into it I was greeted by strange folders (see picture

Sorry, picture is upside down for some reason). Each one had my custom folders in it. I was able to play shows. But once I restart the xbox it went away.
Please help.

I think there maybe an issue with xbox and 5.x.x
I believe they are working on it, to try and come up with a solution

Yeah it's a known bug. If you do get those folders though, just click on one and the server will work normally from there

Thanks for the information, but I no longer see those folders, UMS no longer shows up. It's just once and a while I see them.

So I got it to work, but I still see those weird folders. I deleted everything UMS related, i.e. from my Library; the configuration file. Along with turning my firewall off, then on. Works with 5.1.0 java 8.

Yeah the weird folders thing is a known bug and you just have to click one of them to see your folders.

In 5.1.3 the folder issue has been fixed. Thanks!
