15:00:03 INFO Media renderer was not recognized. Possible identifying HTTP headers:
User-Agent: VLC/3.0.18 LibVLC/3.0.18
15:00:27 INFO Media renderer was not recognized. Possible identifying HTTP headers:

Looks like VLC has changed how they display version numbers again so UMS cannot match anymore. Will need to see logs to find out exactly if this is the case or this is something else.
If you edit your conf for VLC to change UserAgentSearch to
UMS should match it.
You will still be able to play files if UMS can't make a match but it will probably make UMS transcode most things as it won't know what is supported, but this could cause problems with seeking.

Hello,
It's always the same.

Is it detecting the renderer as VLC and using the right conf?
From the log messages in your OP this is normal as the renderer is unknown until UMS makes a match.
This is just showing the headers that UMS will use to find a suitable conf, it does not know what it is at this point.
The next few log entries will show what happens if it makes a match.
If it does not make a match then I will need to see logs to see why. See the section in red above.
It could be the same issue with a changing version number that is no longer valid, or if you have made this change in the past and your edited conf could have been overwritten when updating if not saved in C:\ProgramData\UMS\renderers

I can't help if you do not answer my question and no logs.
