[RENDER] Sony Bravia KDL-40R550C - Render Detecction and Thumbnails Problems

Hi, I try config UMS for my new TV Sony Bravia KDL-40R550C and I have problems whit render and thumbnails.
First of all, the UMS does not detect this model (Sony Bravia KDL-40R550C) With the default render can access everything and display almost all video files.
But the TV always wants to generate thumbnails of the videos which generates excessive CPU consumption and blocks the TV and not being able to generate all thumbnails.
I have configured the UMS to use a folder other thumbnails that load quickly render instead of generating the thumbnails. I tried to force at least not generate the thumbnails but I have not succeeded.
In the render info "friendlyName" are empty before i Named the TV in TV Config.
ums_dbg and render info attached.
Thanks in advance.

Have you tried to force some of the other Sony configs onto your TV?, for an example Sony-BraviaXBR or Sony-BraviaNX800

The problem is that you used the DefaultRenderer.conf and changed only the recognition part. The MediaInfo=true and Supported video, audio and image formats are missing so everything must be transcoded. Better way is to use the Sony-BraviaXBR or Sony-BraviaNX800 conf like
squadjot recommended and change the recognition part there. Also I recommend to use
Code: Select all
UserAgentSearch = IPI/1.0
UpnpDetailsSearch = KDL-40 R550C
for TV recognition.

Thanks for the Strings for the detection of TV, work correctly.
I have tried to force the use of the two renders you mention changing only the part of detection TV and although the detection of the tv is correct, the problem of the generation of thumbnails of the videos still fails, since even having the folder with the covers that would have to use, the TV is trying to generate these thumbnails.
Besides l spend CPU it is impossible visualiar any folder. By the time I created a NEW FOLDER where I put the video I want to see.
I hope you can help me and can find a solution, thanks.

UMS is doing the thumbnail generation because you set
In the UMS.conf there is written
Code: Select all
# Enable the cache
# ------------
# Without a cache, when the client browses a folder, content is listed in
# real-time. With a cache, additional information becomes available and the
# cache can be browsed directly.
# Default: true
If you set the
than thumbnails will be generated only once and second time will be used thumbnails stored in the database (cache)

Yes of course. But I do not seek to generate thumbnails and store them in chae. I want it to never generate thumbnails and use the covers of the folder that have for it. Renderers others, used these caratulas or if there was any did not use anything.

Does it work if you put a JPG file called "folder.jpg" in your moviedirectory?
