iPad Rendering?

Post by carlosrapa »

I am confused because there is not topic on this subject. UMS works like a champ on my PS3, but I have no clue how to use UMS on my iPad. Is there something I am missing, an app maybe? I hope someone can point me in the right direction. Because Google and forum searches are getting me no where.

Thanks,
Carlos

two options - find a upnp/dlna video player ( they do exist ) and use that or if you insist on an ios device I saddly have to suggest looking at the airvideo forum.
That provides a real time transcode function like UMS but for apple devices. Note its NOT FREE. The server is but the renders cost money. That said, like UMS, it is a superb bit of code.

According to our iPad config it should work when using 8player, yxplayer2, MPlayer, NSPlayer, AirAV or AcePlayer on iPad

Not to dredge up an old post, but I just paid for Mplayer and while it recognizes UMS, it won't show me any more than a thumbnail. Just says zero files for the server program.

So does anyone have any updated info on IOS apps that are compatible? I don't want to keep buying them.

I got this working a while back for the PS3-MS... the CONF file is in UMS now too.

AirPlayer... well worth it...

You can add nPlayer, skifta, and TwonkyBeam to the list of supported iOS apps. You'll need to update the iPad-iPod.conf first.
