Universal Media Server | Forum

Hi all,

All in all, UMS is functioning, but am getting new errors saying that my vlc client is unrecognized (is vlc on an android phone hence the confusion with Linux potentially? the error message is also reproduced when I try with my windows computer, but with "windows" where you see "linux"). the error message is pretty vague too, nothing is yielded with a google search. this has worked previously and was recognized as vlc about 6 months ago.

Error message:
"00:33:36 INFO Media renderer was not recognized. Possible identifying HTTP headers:
User-Agent: Linux/5.4.147-qgki-g1ea04500339b, UPnP/1.0, Portable SDK for UPnP devices/1.14.13"

Logs attached.

Thanks in advance.

I had a look at what UMS is using to match the header and looks like it is expecting the version number to be like x.x.xx where your version is like x.xx.xx

I have modded the VLC conf to change the regex from
to which should now work with that version number

Just copy this conf to C:\Program Files (x86)\Universal Media Server\renderers and restart UMS.

I'll let de devs know to include this change

Thanks alot!
