Disable serving Images to XBox One

Hello UMS folks,

Is there a way to disable serving ANY kind of image to the XBox One? I tried removing the list of supported image formats in the renderer configuration, but it did not work:

Code: Select all

# Supported image formats:
#Supported = f:bmp    m:image/bmp
#Supported = f:gif    m:image/gif
#Supported = f:jpg    m:image/jpeg
#Supported = f:png    m:image/png
#Supported = f:tiff   m:image/tiff
The reason why I need this is that the XBox One media player is such a pile of crap it is unbelievable, don't get me started on this. Besides many others, the biggest showstopper right now is that you cannot play an album (i.e., a folder with .mp3 tracks) if there is a cover image (e.g., 00-cover.jpg) in the same folder. Because if you press "Play All" it will "play" the cover image first and there is no way to advance to the next track, I tried every button on the controller. This is so ridiculous and I basically have to stop sending any images to the console.

Thanks for any help!

Simply add

Code: Select all

Image = false
to the Microsoft-XboxOne.conf but I am not sure if it will solve your problem.

Well, it doesn't fix the XBone Media Player, but now I can at least play albums with a cover in it. Thanks!
