Some of my files just plain refuses to be played.

I get the ever hilarious The data type is not supported. (800288C1). Trying to google that gives no relevant hits. What's even more "funny" is that I can't play the file without decoding at all. Works perfectly fine on my computer, and it used to work perfectly fine with PMS. There is no error message in Traces.

Type: Video
Codec: MPEG-4 Video (DX50)

Type: Audio
Codec: Windows Media Audio 2 (WMA2)

Sample rate: 44100hz

Can you see if they work with 1.5.0?

Exorchist,

You could try telling UMS not to transcode that file type. I used this for my renderers for .mp4 & m4v extensions.

Also are you running on Windows, linux or Mac?
