Universal Media Server

V12 release!

Added 2022-11-27 07:22:39 +0000 UTC

Here's our first V12 release. We are so excited about this complete rewrite of our GUI! It is built using modern tooling and will let us develop far more quickly than the old one did. The old one is still there for those who want it, though.

When you start UMS, it will open in your web browser. The first time it runs, it will offer you the chance to create a user, or to disable authentication:

We think it's a good idea to create an admin account unless you are sure your network is private, but the choice is yours.

You can change it at any time, and you can create different users who have different permissions, and different user groups too. We will expand that functionality over time to include more permissions. Let us know your ideas for this, since that will affect which features we prioritize.

There are so many more changes in this release. See the full changelog here.
