hey guys,
for the past few releases my fetchtv box does not seem to get "found" in UMS and hence it doesn't detect its FetchTV profile.
How can this be fixed?

Could you post your logs for this version?
I have been looking over your previous posts and saw that the Fetch does not identify itself in the usual way before after a firmware update so maybe the same thing is happening here.

yeah not a problem. it used to work or get detected for a while (well since my previous post issue got fixed), with the newer versions of ums and possibly fetch firmware it doesnt

ok, trace file attached. the fetch box is ip address 192.168.0.50

I am assuming you were using the conf included in UMS.
I can see that it does not use "FetchTV" in User-Agent anymore but does show as "Fetch DLNA1.5 DMS" in the modelName so this would make a better match.

The version of linux it was using has changed so this conf would stop working too as it was matching a specific version.

See if this conf fixes it and if it does I'll make a change in Github to update it

that does work either. did you change the user agent search thing in this config file, because it looks like its still the old setting

ok i changed the fetch agent line to Linux/4.9.212-1.16 and that seems to find the box.

I kept "UserAgentSearch = FetchTV" so it will still work on older players that had not been updated but added "UpnpDetailsSearch = Fetch" which should match the model name if it is updated again. In theory if either of these 2 fields match then it should use this conf but sometimes it has to match both if set.

Try commenting out the UserAgentSearch line and see if it will match with just UpnpDetailsSearch. You could also try changing FetchTV to just Fetch in UserAgentSearch

Using the linux version is not very reliable as is to generic and could match other devices and it will probably change if the box gets another update.
