@SubJunk: Why do you need to match VLC for a UPnP media server? Indeed we switched the UPnP stacks so VLC no longer identifies itself. Thanks for your reply :) 2 main reasons for me. 1) Even when everything is perfect in UPnP so there are in theory no configs needed, there are still quirks to imple...

These recent versions are great, thank you for all the hard work. I am reporting a regression in the last couple of versions, where no identifying headers like User-Agent are being passed. This breaks functionality for some media servers that rely on that string to identify the app. It used to send ...

@SubJunk: this should be resolved in 3.3.1 as well.

I confirm this is fixed, and is working better than ever. Thank you!

Congratulations on this release! There are some huge improvements here that I'm excited about and I know it is the result of a ton of hard work. Unfortunately for me it has broken support for DLNA/UPnP media servers. I tried with Universal Media Server and Plex but neither are showing up on the Netw...

That's exciting. I clicked on the link for the beta program but it said it is full, is there any other way I can get access?

This sounds very similar to an old bug that affects Universal Media Server, reported here https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=134806
Do you think that beta will fix it for UMS too?

This has been here for over 2 years and it's still happening. Did the team have any feedback? If it's an error on the UMS end, any information would be useful

Thanks bubu?, any news on it?

If I download some files to the VLC for iOS app via DLNA and then during playback select the shuffle icon, I would expect it to randomize the playback order within the folder, but they still play in the listed order.

Hi, I am the lead developer of UMS and I can confirm this bug. I am not sure if it's a problem with UMS or VLC, but I am not aware of any other apps that experience this problem when interacting with UMS. We have an issue for it on our tracker at https://github.com/UniversalMediaServer/UniversalMedi...

I have experienced this before, too. It's one of two bugs I frequently (but not every time) experience when using the app

Both bugs confirmed with the latest nightly (vlc-2.0.6-20130409-1143)

Hi guys, I'm using the following command line to transcode, trying to get a MPEG-PS file with AC-3 audio. It correctly outputs MPEG-2 video but no audio: vlc -I dummy inputfile.mkv --sout #transcode{scale=1.0,samplerate=48000,channels=6,ab=640,vb=4096,keyint=16,acodec=mp2a,vcodec=mp2v}:std{access=fi...
