I'll report it, but it looks like BubbleUPnP will end up failing still. I added the argument to startup so that the bubbleupnp server will wait 60s for ffprobe to return, ffprobe is replaced by my wrapper that sleeps and then executes the real ffprobe with the same args, gets output, but then appears to redirect the url (to the ChromeCast?) and the CC just flips back to the bubbleupnp logo because it can't handle the content, it seems:

Repeated navigation to the same trailer doesn't cause ffprobe to be run again, but simply redirecting and failing on the CC, I think.

I am running into problems setting up on Andorid with a Windows install:

On the Android Server connection settings page, I am entering the Server Address as the "Public IP Address" listed in the Windows server page.

The Login/Password are the same as the ones I have set in Windows BubbleUPnP Server screen.

However, when I attempt to connect I get this error message every time:

Connection Failed "The remote server could not be joined but failed authentication. Check that your login and password are correct"

Any help appreciated!
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
There's indeed a problem. The log shows "video extension: mp4" while it should be "mov".

This is a bug (in Android BubbleUPnP) that I will fix for the next release.

Since both the video and audio in this .mov are Chromecast compatible (h264 and aac) and BubbleUPnP Server thinks it is a mp4, nothing happens and the video

is forwarded (wrongly) as is, instead of being just remuxed to mkv which is playable by Chromecast. If either the video or audio had not been compatible, it would have worked.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Double check that the login/password in Android BubbleUPnP matches the one you have set in BubbleUPnP Server (I advise to set them again in BubbleUPnP Server , and don't forget to click on the Apply button). Also, check in the "Network and security tab" that "Allow to access the server from the Internet" is checked.
[Android Apps and Games] ashjas:
Any updates on the cheapcast compatibility? Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Cheapcast would have to be updated to work with official SDK apps.

This is unlikely to happen as Google has added encryption, making writing Chromecast emulators almost impossible:

OK so if wanna downgrade bubbkeupnp which version should I be looking for?
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Downgrade for what ? There's no previous version which works with Cheapcast.

Cheapcast was great when it existed and was possible. But it's dead now.

BubbleUPnP Server 0.8.2 ERROR: bad login/password401

Since the latest update, the server status tab reports:

HTTP: ERROR: bad login/password401

HTTPS: ERROR: bad login/password401

I have checked that the windows firewall is open for bubbleupnp and the router has the correct entries. These settings had not been changed but this fails since the update to 0.8.2.

I have changed the password and pressed Apply on the Network and Security tab but nothing satisfies this error.

Is this an actual error or a red herring?

Thank you

Hello,

just a question and hope any1 here can help me.

How can i make bubbleserver start on boot? after installed bubble on my LinkStation, it worked, and after i closed my terminal session, then the server shutdown too.

I googled many time and tried many ways but no luck,
[Android Apps and Games] jokerni:
newbie question

Hi

I'm messing about with playercorefactory.xml and I'm trying to make Bubble work as my default external player. Now for the real newbie question, whats the app called? is it called com.bubblesoft.android.bubbleupnp ?

[MENTION=5792342]ech68[/MENTION]

After more research, this issue comes yet again from another Plex bug: it tells BubbleUPnP the iTunes trailers have mime-type video/mp4 instead of video/quicktime. Thus BubbleUPnP Server is confused and thinks the container is mp4.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
yes
[Android Apps and Games] jokerni:
:) Thanks for the quick reply... OK something else is not working then :)
[Android Apps and Games] wavrunrx:
omg; for the life of me i cannot figure out what the username and password are of bubbleupnp server.

no matter what im presented with a user/pass dialogue.

whats the default password ?

how can i reset them if i cant get into the web UI ?
[Android Apps and Games] ashjas:
How is it possible that over smb share I can stream a 720p HD movie with mxplayer with no buffering but with bubbleupnp when I try to stream my nexus4 camera 720p videos, they play with a buffering every 5sec? I'm over wireless N 64mbps WiFi link? What can be the reason?
[Android Apps and Games] Straubi:
Phone is not rooted.

And no other Apps, can affect this.

But I activate logging.

And I change the settings. Control - Kill on inactivity - "never".

What about "Fast forwarding"?

Or some buttons with "+/- 10 sec" and "+/- 30 sec"
[Android Apps and Games] sordna:
Compare the file sizes between a movie and your phone's camera video of the same duration. The phone's video is probably much bigger in file size (ie has much higher bitrate because its probably poorly compressed in comparison with the movie).
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
The default is Admin/admin.

It shouldn't ask you for a password if you connect to the LAN ip address of the server (eg 192.168.x.x).
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
long-press the next/prev buttons in the Now Playing screen for -/+ 30s.

[MENTION=3373153]bubbleguuum[/MENTION] First of all thanks for providing us with this great app and server back-end. Worth every cent!

Wondering how I can specify some additional/custom options to ffmpeg. When streaming live TV from my dreambox it is needed to force a certain frame rate because ffmpeg is not able to select the correct one by itself in case of .ts streams. This has been confirmed in the ffmeg support forums but now looking for a way to force a certain framerate. Adding this to an existing preset file does not seem to work or at least it doesnt look like it?!

Thanks

BubbleUPnP 1.8.4 doesn't play music on an Android 2.2 device

I am a little bit ashamed to ask for support for a so old tablet. I hope it will be still possible to use BubbleUPnP on this device.

BubbleUPnP does not play MP3 songs. It just does nothing. I believe I have found the reason for this behavior in the logfile:

The full logfile and the device info is attached.

If I use AirPin(LITE) as local renderer, the song will be played without problems, but it looks ugly because it doesn't work in the background.

Maybe somebody knows a renderer that will run in the background?

Thanks for help

Audio routing

It would be sweet to add audio routing to your android device. Localcast have inplemented this and it works ok. It would be a neat feature on bubble upnp also. :)

Feature Request - Save chromecast subtitles preference by device

The chromecast native subtitles was awesome, and also fully customized, but every new movie

the user watches, the subtitles preferences - size, color, font, gets unconfigured.

It would be nice if bubbleupnp can remember, by chromecast device, what was the user saved

preference, and remember it when the user plays another movie on the same device that he already

customized the preference.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
It should be the case already. Subtitles settings are remembered per Chromecast device.

If it is not the case for you, please describe more in detail what you did.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
No plan for this as manual audio syncing is really tedious.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
The Android MediaPlayer component fails to play this mp3 on this old Android version. There's nothing I can do here.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Can you send me the BubbleUPnPServer.log.0 file at bubbleguuum@free.fr playing such ts stream so I can see what is failing ?

On platforms other than Windows, you can write a wrapper shell script for ffmpeg that can call the real ffmpeg binary with modified arguments. Simply put such script in the install directory, make it executable and restart the server. Only advised for ffmpeg experts :).
[Android Apps and Games] sordna:
There is an app LocalCast that allows you to rotate and zoom in/out of photos displayed on the Chromecast.

Can you look into implementing this? Especially the rotation since many photos show sideways.

Also, it would be great if we can browse our photos without changing the photo displayed on the Chromecast. I think someone a while ago suggested a nice idea: a gesture to swipe a photo upward and only then send it to the Chromecast... So that will make searching for photos much better. Similar to how we can browse for music without disrupting what is already playing.

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] dynasticorpheus:
Thanks I have the wrapper in place now which allows me to debug a bit better.

To be clear, I don't think it is a BubbleUPnP issue as the stream plays but has a super short stutter every 2 seconds. Due to the wrapper I can now see ffmpeg is using the correct frame rate so I need to look further. I will report back if I find a solution which might be beneficial for other dreambox owners

cheers
[Android Apps and Games] gdachs:
As I told you, it gets played if I use AndPin(LITE) (AirPlay/DLNA Receiver (LITE)) as local renderer and this App uses the Android MediaPlayer without problems. If this app can play the song that was delivered by BubbleUPnP, why can't BubbleUPnP do it alone?

CIFS Mount

Does anyone know if BubbleUPnP supports a mounted CIFS share?

It's advising me I need a licensed version to browse the FileSystem and I'd be happy to pay but just want to test it out first
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Try editing configuration.xml and change 'allowWANConfigurationUI' to true, then restart the server and try to login again.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Yes, it is supported if mounted as a filesystem that you can access in filemanager apps.

The local media server "Filesystem" folder is limited to the (internal) sd card.

To be able to browse your CIFS share (or any other mounted folder) you will have to add it as a mount point in Settings > Local Media Server > Filesystem > Custom Mount Point. This requires the full version.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Automatic sync is even impossible.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Try accessing the log from Android with a file manager like ES File Explorer. Sometimes WIndows MTP to read files on the SD card is acting wonky (files not appearing for a while).
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
I need a BubbleUPnP log instead (see first post of this topic for instructions).
[Android Apps and Games] kweso:
hey,

tried to search, couldn't find.

what does "transfer playback" in the renderer-settings mean?

tyvm!

kws
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
If enabled, it means that if something is playing on the current renderer, it will continue to play at the same position on the new selected renderer.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
It is probable I will add this at some point.

Although not super optimal you can sort of do this by adding photos to the Playlist tab and use the Now Playing tab for control (instead of the full screen image viewier and controller).
[Android Apps and Games] kweso:
tyvm! great feature...
[Android Apps and Games] Slotty_AU:
Awesome! You now have my ~$5
[Android Apps and Games] vagg:
Best app i've paid for.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Could be either transcoding maxing out your CPU or the bitrate too high. For possible solutions check the "Troubleshooting video stuttering issues" section of the BubbleUPnP Server Chromecast documentation

[Tested] How to expose .srt external subtitles on mybooklive NAS

Hello. I have a MyBookLive NAS, with several .mp4 files and .srt files, and use it to stream to chromecast, but the

subtitle files were not exposed.

So, I checked MyBookLive UPNP responses, and confirmed that yes, it shows all the subtitles.

I used a linux box, with the cURL app to submit several soap request direct to Mybooklive NAS. The test script

is available on: pastebin 7Ky8F7bc

The soap request is in pastebin jwHv1MxN

And the soap response is in pastebin.com Qk2QzS9r

As you can see in the soap response, the SRT files were exposed, in lines like:

<subtitle resURI="<removed>/13adb068bae514d7b721fb698fd22bf8$1$1111$Folder$Video.avi" subtitleFileType="srt" subtitleProtocolInfo="http-get:*:application/x-srt:*"><removed>13adb068bae514d7b721fb698fd22bf8$3$166.srt</subtitle>

The bubbleupnp relevant log file with the MyBooklive NAS Server identification is in pastebin NQHM3qEn

So, I think that it is possible to bubbleupnp discover MyBookLive SRT files, and stream it to chromecast. Please, fix the

detection of external .srt files on Mybooklive.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Thank you for the report and logs.

There is no standard for transmitting subtitles over UPnP. BubbleUPnP already recognize 3 or 4 different methods, but this one is new to me: it is the first time I see it. I'll try to add support for it in the next release.

Amazing!!!

I have been using BubbleUPnP for a number of years. And I'm looking to implement it throughout my house.

I have a Minix X5 android PC connected to the router via Ethernet and to the Amp via optical cable, with BubbleUPnP installed. And a Chromecast in the bedroom. I use a Samsung Galaxy S2 with BubbleUPnP solely as a Media Remote control. So if I want to watch a movie on the bedroom TV I select the Minix X5 as the Library Device and the Chromecast as the Renderer and it works perfectly. Works perfectly again if I want to listen to music. I set the Library and Renderer device as the Minix X5 and then select the music in my Google Play Music account to play.

I have a couple of questions.

Am I able to use BubbleUPnP to send or control media on two different devices?

For example, would I be able to send two different home videos to two different Chromecasts on the same network, bedroom and living room?

Or if I had an Android device connected to an Amp in the bedroom, and another Android device connected to an Amp in the kitchen, would I be able to control the media playing out of each device on a separate basis?

I would love to be able to test out future beta releases as I use this app heavily on a daily basis.
[Android Apps and Games] ehmjay:
Hi I just bought my Chromecast today and the first thing I did after setting it up was to install bubbleupnp coz I read so many excellent reviews about it. I love watching TV series and I often download them on my phone so I can watch them on my way to school and back. After installing you app, i searched for the video i just downloaded and began watching it. The problem is after 10 or 15 mins, the video stopped and i had to re open the app and play it again. Again after several minutes, the video stopped for the second time. I tried setting the app timeout in the settings menu to 60 mins so that it will never get killed but same thing happened. My guess is the app is getting killed by android after a certain amount of screen off time. How can I prevent this from happening? Playing videos from my PC is fine though. I have a Sony Xperia Z with 2gb of ram, enough to maintain the app on the background. Any suggestions?
[Android Apps and Games] sordna:
Did you buy the license? The free version only plays up to 20 minutes or something like that.
[Android Apps and Games] ehmjay:
Really? Now that explains everything :)
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
The 20 minutes limitation is only if you installed BUbbleUPnP Server and it is performing transcoding to play a video. And it displays a toast message about the limitation when that's the case.

Let me know if that's the case, otherwise it is something else probably network related.
[Android Apps and Games] ehmjay:
No that's not my case.. I was playing something I downloaded on my phone and not streaming from my pc..
[Android Apps and Games] sordna:
Question: I have bought the license like a year ago (best app purchase ever!) and was wondering if it would work in a kindle fire HDX. I sideliaded the app itself and it works fine, but I get the ads of course.
