Video goes to Audio

I have always been very happy with this product but I seem to have developed a rather odd problem in my Samsung Smart TV. When I click on the Servio icon and the select Video it actually goes to the Audio menu. If I return and click on Video it goes to the Video menu. Tried reinstalling Servio Server (PRO v 2.2.1PRO v 2.2.1) but the problem still exists. If I click on Audio it goes to Audio. Bit of a niggle and I never touch anything other than to upgrade. After all if it works why try and fix it. Any ideas?

Re: Video goes to Audio

I hate pointing fingers, but it's likely something that has been updated in the Samsung firmware. I don't see anything like that on my Nvidia Shield or Roku players.

That said, I have an Audio presentation enabled on one of my Serviio machines, and when I view it I see both video and audio presentation folders together. But depending on the player, and what I selected after choosing the server, I might not have access to both media types. On my Roku, I can tell it I'm looking for Video, Music, or Photos, all everything. I then see all folder presentations. But unless I selected Everything at the beginning, I won't find any media to play other than what matches what I selected. On my Shield using Kodi, it doesn't ask the type of media, so it will play anything it finds.

Re: Video goes to Audio

Is there a way I can check if my Samsung has been updated and when?

Re: Video goes to Audio

If I remember what the Samsung screen shows, it merely shows the date it was last checked for updates, not the actual date of the last update.

Re: Video goes to Audio

I checked and it has not been updated for ages. This problem started about two months ago it's just I didn't have the time to ask for a fix.
