Instructions for Debian installation

Hi All,

Could you please give me a guide to install Bubbleupnp server on a Debian setup?

Installed the Java packages ok on debian, but really struggling to get the bubble.deb installed.

So, other things i tried, I unzipped the ZIP file from the bubble site, and moved the files to a directory called bubble on my debian /etc folder. I had to make launch.sh executable. The server runs, and on my desktop PC end I get a "login" screen" to the server.

I have no idea what the login/password is? and don't appear to have the option to change it either.

The instructions on bubblesoft site is for ubuntu not debian. I thought it should be the same installation wise, but it's not?

Any ideas please?

Sort by date?

Is it really impossible to sort the files by "creation date"?

I have folders with series, which get filled automatically by my recording software.

But without sorting by date, it is impossible to know the correct play sequence.

Btw, XBMC can sort these folders without any issues.

Sort it by recently added
[Android Apps and Games] Espasa:
Great App, thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
If XBMC your media server ?

BubbleUPnP lists items in the order the media server sends them.

Look if you can set it to sort by creation date.

There's a concept of "date" with UPnP but not all media servers send this info and it is not

always the creation date.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
That's not a license problem. You can send me a log file playing such track until it doesn't play (see first post of this topic for logging instructions).
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Can you report if you have this issue if you force the screen of your S4 to stay on while streaming (for the purpose of this test) ?
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
The .deb package is for Ubuntu altough it may be installable on Debian (but the upstart script to start/stop the service will be inoperant on debian).

When connecting with a browser, you shouldn't get a login prompt if connecting within your LAN using the server's LAN ip.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
If you installed BubbleUPnP Server for transcoding, see this section for troubleshooting. If you did not install BubbleUPnP Server, it is a Plex issue as it is transcoding.

[MENTION=5665993]juupken[/MENTION]

If the volume goes back to a previous value when you swicth back to BubbleUPnP, it means the Stream Magic notify BubbleUPnP that this is the current volume. It looks like a bug of the renderer. Maybe it is related to that DSP pre-amp mode ?

I advise to report this issue to Cambridge Audio so they can reproduce it and fix it. Or maybe ask to other users of this renderer if they have this issue.

Also double check that your renderer is updated to the latest firmware.
[Android Apps and Games] vel_tins:
For my tests, I used the integrated server from Windows 7.

EDIT: Same with XBMC server (not configurable)

Inside Windows Media Player library, I can sort anything I want.

But I don't know if the server sends this sorting.

Bubbleupnp just sorts everything from A --> Z

Even with local media, I can't find any sorting functions (date, lenght, whatever)

But not released yet?

However, this function is really needed.

Same problem with xperia z2 and sg3 after updating to 2.0.10

Before last update bubbleupnp was working on both devices. After update, I'm not able to register application with license.

Both are downloaded from playstore and license purchased over Google play as well.

After update i sow that bubble need license confirmation as stupid banners appearing in app. So I tap on license apk. It appear with thank you screen with 2 buttons. Hide app and install main app, playstore says that app is installed... And that was a circle. Tryed with restarting, deleting dalvik, deleting both app and reinstalled again, but same problem on both devices. Any advices?

Still getting a login dialog box in Ubuntu 14 ?

Hi Bubbleguum,

I've tested this install again this time on Ubuntu 14. It is a headless machine working as a router. All configuration i am doing is via terminal. Nothing graphical in this setup. My procedure

$apt-get update

$apt-get install unzip

$apt-get install openjdk-7-jre-headless

$wget h**p://launchpad.net/~bubbleguuum/+archive/bubbleupnpserver/+files/bubbleupnpserver_0.8.3-1_all.deb

$sudo dpkg -i bubbleupnpserver_0.8.3-1_all.deb

Everything installs ok. I goto to my laptop open mozilla webbrowser and type h**p://192.168.5.1:58050 and i am presented with a dialog box which asks:

A username and password are being requested by h**p://192.168.5.1:58050. The site says: "User"

Any reason why i am being asked this OR is there a file I can edit to update username / password?

Repeating tracks

Hello,

at first I want to appreciate your App as a useful tool to hear music with my networkplayer.

But, and correct me if I was to dump to find an answer, each track dont stop to repeat itself. I did use the Repeatbutton and nothing changed, regardless of whether it was on "Repeat Track", "Repeat Playlist" or just turned off. I found the tip to reinstall the App and so did I. (I reinstalled the player, not the license) Doesn't fixed the issue :crying:

I use a Samsung S3 LTE and a Denon DNP-F109 is my Renderer.

Please help me with this issue, I don't want to press the forward button every time a song has ended...

Greetings,

Steve
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
There's probably a repeat toggle enabled on your Denon that get in the way.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
The default login/password is Admin/admin. There's a bug somewhere because it should only ask you for a l/p if you connect from outside your LAN.

Can you email me file /root/.bubbleupnpserver/BubbleUPnPServer.log.0 to bubbleguuum@free.fr, so I can have an idea on why there is this problem on your network ?
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
If you still have this issue, send me a log file as described in the first post of this topic (log the first 30s after starting the app).
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
You mean Tunein ? Because Tunein doesn't share any info that allows third party apps to play its streams.

Wishing for "Automobile/Drive Mode" on Android app

Hi BubbleUPnP'ers!

Firstly thanks so much to the developer for the wonderful Android app and server software. It's an amazing way to listen either locally or remotely when combined with either J. River Media Center 20 server, AssetUPnP Server or Logitech Media Server running on my Windows 8.1 Pro Homeserver.

The one crucial feature I'd love to see from the app is an "Automobile/Drive Mode" wherein the text display and control buttons are considerably larger to allow for safer and easier access to reading, changing and playing tracks.

I use the Bubble UPnP Android app on my Nexus 4 a LOT while driving in conjunction with my Sony XSP-N1BT smartphone receiver. (The smartphone becomes the primary control interface when paired via Bluetooth to this receiver as there are virtually no buttons on the receiver related to controlling music.) So essentially the phone's screen is the way to control my car's radio. (There's remote wand too but that's for passengers while in motion) My Sony unit is also physically nice in that it has its own built-in smartphone cradle that allows me to get the phone off the dash thus allowing for an obstructed view out the window but it in the end this places the phone a bit further from the eye which makes reading the display on my Nexus 4 a little harder.

I think an option for both larger text and control buttons would help ameliorate this while making the operation of the app safer while driving. Better yet I'd absolutely LOVE to see Bubble UPnP gain the ability to be controlled entirely with voice with even voice feedback so that in essence while driving one wouldn't even have to ever look at or touch the screen. This includes searching for and cueing up albums, artists and or songs.

Thanks!

On Tv i can see all the content, but some times, the server dont appears on the TV sources menu (even on other client devices eg. MobilePhone, and in the meddle of a video), after that the server appears on the menu, but i cant see any folder, I shoud wait, or reboot the android to have again a normal behaviour .

MKV seek issue

Hello guys,

I have in interesting situation here and am not really sure if this is the right place to ask, but hopefully someone can suggest the solution.

I have a smart tv Samsung UE40F and an HDD connected to wireless router FritzBox, which serves as the media server. The problem is that even thou the TV sees the Media Server and plays the files on HDD, it is impossible to seek through the video file (seek works, however, when the HDD is connected to the TV via usb). So I decided to pass the videos from Media Server to the TV using Bubble, and what a surprise - now all .avi files are seekable from Bubble. The only problem now is .MKV . Seek function still doesn't work, only Play/Pause. Is it something that can be solved by means of Bubble or just the limitation of Server or TV, which is not possible to overcome? I thought it could be nice to transcode the videos using Bubble server on PC and the push them to TV as it is done for Chromecast.

I've also used Bubbleupnp with VGet app (retrieves the direct link to the embedded flash-videos) for the same purpose: if I just send the videos from VGet to TV it is impossible to move back and forth through the video, but when I send the video from VGet to Bubble and then to TV it works perfectly. I don't know how it all works, but I thought that the phone with Bubble processes the video from the internet and then sends it to TV, so similar thing in my imagination would work for local Media Server.

Anyway, I would appreciate any ideas, including the suggestion to just live with it.

Try rebooting your WiFi router, and (if necessary) Chromecast and Android device.

Drag'n'drop the covers to reorder tracks.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
No translations as there are way too much strings.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Whether seek works can be complicated as it depends on the renderer ability to seek (which itself may depend on the codec) and the media server's http server. And for DLNA devices there can be ever more complications.
[Android Apps and Games] r-l:
It work thanks,

Is it possible to change colors of the subs streamed to chromecast. I have a black bar with white text. Hate the black bar

Trying to get BubbleUPnP Server for Mac to work

Ever since I installed 0.8.3 I've been unable to access BubbleUPnP Server remotely. Never had an issue before. So far I've tried deleting the BubbleUPnPServer-distrib folder on my Mac and re-installing. I've even disabled the firewall on both my Mac and my router to rule that out. When I click the Internet Connectivity Test button I get 2 errors, "HTTP: ERROR: connectivity server read timeout: java.net.SocketTimeoutException: Read timed out" and "HTTPS: ERROR: connectivity server read timeout: java.net.SocketTimeoutException: Read timed out"

Update 2.0.11

Hello bubbleguuum, i have a question regarding the new update. Well... in the previous updates when a song title was too long and couldnt fit then there was a kinda rolling funktion from the right to the left so i could see the whole title. Now with the new update is not possible to see the whole title there is not longer a rolling funkion. Is there any setting i could change that so i can see the whole title?

Thanks!

Regards

If you mean the tracks's title at the top of the Now Playing screen, it should scroll if too long. What is your Android version and device ?

Hello, first lemme thank you for your quick reply. Yes this is exactly what i mean the scroll funktion.

But i checked again and it works...but, if i tab the now playing to see the metadata then the title does not scroll, Impossible to see the whole title.

Something is wrong with Java resolving hostnames/ip addresses of your machine. According to Java docs it shoudn't throw an UnknownHostException resolving a numerical ip address.

Looks like the Bonjour name "macminiserver.local" (see http://www.edugeek.net/forums/mac/132437-mac-book-pro-mac-server-os-x-maverick.html#post1136237) gets in the way. I don't know why and can't think of a fix or workaround at this time.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
OK. There's been a change in 2.0.11 to handle scrolling of titles on Lollipop. I suppose that's what broke it for your device although it works for me on a Nexus 4 running 4.4.4. Please send me an email to bubbleguuum@free.fr so I can send you a test build to diagnose the problem and fix it.
[Android Apps and Games] GitAlongLilDoggies:
You rock, I figured it out. After reading the link you sent I double checked the "Sharing" contol panel. For some reason the Bonjour name was different, macminiserver-2.local instead of macminiserver.local. Not sure how that happened but once I changed it back and restarted the BubbleUpnp server it's working. Thanks so much!!! :good::good::good:

Protect current playlist

Hi Bubbleguum,

especially during parties, where the pending music playlist becomes longer and longer (guest's wishes), it is annyoing if the playlist gets lost accidently, especially by using "play" instead of enqueue in the library.

It there a possibility to "protect" the playllist?

Maybe by asking for confirmation when an action is attempted, that overwrites the complete playlist.

Another approach would be to never overwrite the playlist... instead enqueue always in protected mode and then skip to the enqueued first title.

A "never interrupt currently playing title from library" feature would be also handy. This would continue the title and THEN perform any skip.

Thanks for listening

Diddle.
[Android Apps and Games] Stiefelkante:
Solution

You were right. The app wasn't the Problem, the Denon had the repeat toggle on. Funny Fact: I couldn't manipulate that as long as I run the App. So I had to turn it off to detoggle that function.

Thank you for a fast and easy solution of my problem!
[Android Apps and Games] ddy3:
Hi bubbleguuum, thanks for your reply.

I still want to figure out which device or software is limiting the seek function. So I made a couple of experiments, which should in theory help to get closer to the solution. I'll start with the original situation as #1:

1. HDD is connected to the router which serves as a media server. I'm openning the .mkv using Bubbleupnp on my Galaxy SIII and sending it to the renderer which is my tv. Seek doesn't work at all.

2. I connect the same HDD directly to my phone, open the same file with Bubbleupnp and push it to the TV. Seek works flawlessly.

3. HDD is connected back to the router. I open the file using Bubbleupnp and play it using MX player on my phone. Also no problem with seek, I can go to any time point easily.

4. Here comes the most interesting part. I do the same thing as in 3, but choose the stock app called Video to play the file. Now the video is played by this standard app without the sound (the app said that the audio codec is not supported). Anyway, this app has a button to play the video on another device using DLNA (probably), so I push that one and send the video to my TV. And what a miracle, it is played on the TV with sound and I can seek with this Video app on my phone and it works. It takes about 5 seconds to jump 20 minutes forward, but it's not bad.

So I've kind of found a temporary solution for my problem, but I wouldn't say I like it a lot. Any ideas how I could skip that step with Video app?

I believe this might sound interesting for you as a developer, but I can be wrong since I'm total zero in software developing. Thanks for support anyway!

Something wrong with the BubbleUp server for Chromecast. Sometimes it will extract subtitles and sometimes it won't.

The movies come from the same source in an Anime series. So sometimes it will extract for episode 1 and then not for episode 2.

Hi, I have a small problem - I can't force it to show album arts on some albums. On some album arts working fine but on other I have no idea how to make it works. I figured that covers must be written to file and they are cause on windows every program sees them. I checked on every type of encoding ID3v2.3, ID3v2.4 ID3v1, APE, still no luck. Is there any trick to make it works??

I'm on stock 4.4.2, latest version of app with pro key.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Whether album art shows up or not depends on your media server recognizing it. Most media servers recognize Folder.jpg. Others recognize embedded album art.

What is your media server ?
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
This icon is specific to Chromecast. Subtitles for generic DLNA/UPNp devices is a complicated story depending on media servers and renderers.

Samsung TV normally support external subs but for Showbox, you'd have to download the movie first, put a srt in the same folder with the same title than the movie and browse the local media server to that movie to play it.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Subtitles are only extracted (toast message) the first time you play a movie. On subsequent playback, you should be able to select

one of the previously extracted subs.

What is the exact problem you have with subtitles ? No subtitles listed in the Subtiles dialog ? An error message appearing on screen (toast) ?
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Can you send me 2 distinct log files for scenarios 1 and 2 ? See first post of this topic for detailed instructions.

Scenario 4 works possibly because the Video app is proxying the stream to the renderer: the renderer streams from that app's http server rather than your router's http server (similar to 2, where the renderer streams from BubbleUPnP). Remember that working seek depends (among other things) on the http server serving the stream.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
There's no "protect" switch for the Playlist, although I can see how it could be useful.

However you can protect the Playlist being replaced by an accidently tapped item in Library, by setting Settings > Library > Item Tap action to "Do nothing".
