Great app!

BubbleUPNP will stream all my audio tracks from my NAS to my Pioneer VSX-921 DNLA receiver. I love the app, there is nothing better today! :) So, I bought the license.

However:

- the song progress bar doesn't show any progress;

- sometimes the next songs in the playlist are not played automatically. What happens when a track has been played, is:

1. title of the next songs moves to the actual song

2. pause icon is replaced by the play icon (telling me: nothing is played at the moment, hit this button to play the actual song)

3. After 3 seconds the message "Action timeout" appears.

- When the playlist is not played automatically, remaining/elapsed times are not updated as well.

But: sometimes, everthing works as expected: next tracks will be played automatically, remaining/elapsed times are updated (however, progress bar will never get updated). Is there some explanation for this?

Question: in the library tab, I will browse to my NAS, displaying the folders and subfolders. How can I sort these (sub)folders in alfabetical order?
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
A few other users reported multiple problems with this particular renderer.

The first thing you can do is check if it is running the latest firmware available and install it if not the case.

What is the Media Server running on your NAS ? The app will display folders (and items) in the order the server returns them as it is supposed to use an order that make sense. Some media servers allow to configure it.

Remote renderers and Airport express

Hi Bubbleguum and thx for a great app and server program.

A few questions.

when connected with 3g on a phone i can only reach my server and the local renderer on the phone. Is it possible to get access to my local rendereres on my network remotly ?

I also use Airport express and the service AIRUPNP to change them into UPNP devices. It works ok but will you incorparate airplay support nativly in your APP or server software?

Keep up the good work

Regards:

Wryce 76
[Android Apps and Games] DutchJack:
Latest firmware is installed. What I found out is this: put the app at the background, and it will play the whole playlist without pausing. Turning off the display of the tab, will have the same effect. But, put back the app at the foreground again, and it will stop after the actual track has been played. Same happens if you turn on the display of the tab again. This way the app can play the whole playlist, but then you're missing information about the current track.

The NAS is a Buffalo LinkStation Pro Duo, using Pogoplug software. So, I will have to try and find the sort functionality somewhere in that environment.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Not sure I understand your question. If you mean accessing your LAN renderers over 3G there would be not much point since you wouln't be able to hear what they are playing.

Not at the moment

I've pretty much made BubbleUPnP my default music app, both at home and in my car. And from using it so heavily I have some more suggestions. I hope you'll consider them for a future update?

1. On the 'Now Playing' screen, I would prefer if you suppressed any blank fields like Composer or Album. It seems unnecessary to display 'Composed by: <unknown>' Maybe it's showing this because my songs are tagged with a blank (non-null) entry?

2. Is there a way to make the app 'grab' the BT controls? When I use it in my car I playback through the phone's BT link to the car stereo. If I press FF or RW, though, it triggers one of the other audio apps on the phone. Other such apps include an option to either grab the BT 'headphone' controls while running, or grab control always (make themselves the default app).

Also, when I turn-off my stereo (meaning the BT connection is lost) BubbleUPnP continues to play through the phone's speaker whereas other apps will pause.

3. I figured-out why I kept getting entire albums/folders added to the playlist accidentally. It goes back to my previous request re auto-start of first queued song. What was happening was that I would browse to a list of songs, click on the first one I wanted to hear (which would not auto-start since I have Default Tap Action=Enqueue) and then I would click the play-icon at the top of the screen. I now realize that is a Play All action for the displayed list, not the Play/Pause action on the Now Playing list. So, if there were an option to auto-start the playback on first 'enqueued' song, this confusion would have been avoided.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
@bsmith1051

Thank you for the feedback

1. This is due to your Media Server setting the composer to "<unknown>" for every track. Thus from the POV of the app there is a composer. You can disable displaying the composer field: Settings > Show composer.

2. BubbleUPnP already handle media buttons (play, pause, etc) which I believe are emitted by the BT controls. But the other app (a music player probably) probably handle the media buttons before BubbleUPnP so it must be disabled in this app configuration.

As for detecting BT unplugging, I will look into it

3. you can long-click a track and select "Enqueue and play". Then enqueue other tracks normally or reuse "Enqueue and play" when needed.

If you want to enqueue and play a whole folder (an album), "Enqueue and play" is also available on the folder's context menu.
[Android Apps and Games] Mac Boy:
Thanks for a great app, I paid for it on first impressions and don't regret it BUT then I found that I couldn't pay half my music collection. I am using MediaTomb on Ubuntu and I can play all .aac files but I cannot play my .mp3 files. The mp3 files play fine on my Denon network audio player if I directly use the device but not via bubble upnp.

Amy suggestions would be welcome
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
After looking at the thread you point to, it looks these renderers are not exactly UPnP AV compliant with that weird CurrentURI field it expects.

It would be best if Bose fixed it really, because it makes their renderer look bad, not working with UPnP/DLNA control points, while the renderer is visible to these apps.

Maybe I can do something about it but please send me a BubbleUPnP log file first so I can see how to detect these renderers.

Audio cast with YouTube

I'm trying to use the Audio Cast function to send audio from YouTube app on a Nexus 7 to a Chromecast Audio, but it doesn't work.

What's wrong?

I tried to search on Google and on this thread if there is some incompatibility, but I couldn't find such information.

This is my environment:

- Nexus 7 2012 wifi, CM 12.1 (therefore rooted)

- BubbleUPnP + licence

- Xposed v.83 + BubleUPnP module activated (of course I've rebooted the device after activating)

Any suggestion?

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] PrplMnkyDshwshr:
Yeah, have checked repeat is off in the app, sqeezebox has no option for repeat seperate from loading a playlist directly from a client, which is also off. As far as rebooting, have tried that many times. This has been an issue for me for months, was hoping the last couple of updates would fix things, but no luck.

Also happens from every android device I had tried it on.
[Android Apps and Games] godai74:
Update:

I've updated BubbleUPnP to latest version and now Audio Cast of YouTube on a Chomecast Audio works (I had previous version).

I don't know if this was the root cause of the malfunction.

[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
In the last update there was a fix for Audio Cast and Deezer. But it's possible it fixed Youtube as well (it worked at some point but I didn't test for a while so might have been broken by a youtube app update).

Backtraces in MM while using Xposed module

I am seeing backtraces in the Xposed.log files when the BubbleUPNP Xposed module is activated.

This is happening with:

BubbleUPNP 2.6.3

Omni 6.0.1 20160416 (MM)

A variety of devices, hammerhead, mako, manta.

BubbleUPNP is otherwise running fine, including the Audio Cast feature.

This is probably because of a missing package. I'm running a very lean gapps install.

I've attached the Xposed log file.

Browse error on Android, solved

First off, I am a big fan of BubbleUPnP, and have the paid version on my Android device in combo with BubbleUPnP Server on my Synology NAS.

But... I have to say this. EVERY time there's an update, my working set-up breaks, and I spend hours getting it to work again. For example: the server does an automatic update, and breaks because I still have java7 on the NAS. That I need to upgrade this is buried in small print and it takes me my evening to fix stuff. Then we get the Synology DSM6 update, followed by an Android update, and again stuff stops working. This time I de-installed and re-installed the server, and restarted the NAS to make sure; removed cache and data from the android app and re-entered my network info; but no dice. I kept getting two errors: a "Peer not authenticated" error on the server, and a "Browse error" on the android device when selecting my Library.

in Android BubbleUPnP, when selecting my NAS as library, I got this error:

Browse error:

Current state of service prevents invoking that action. No response received or internal proxy error.

I was able to solve this:

on the Synology NAS, in Media Server, under DMA Compatibility:

- uncheck Restrict access to Media Server for newly detected UPnP devices

- click Device list, check to enable "Bubblesoft BubbleUPnP" (android device)

Apparently, after an update of the Android client, the Media Server sees it as a new device and refuses access.

In BubbleUPnP Server on the NAS, on the Status tab, I keep having the "peer not authenticated" error for the Internet Connectivity Test.

HTTP: ERROR: connectivity server error: javax.net.ssl.SSLPeerUnverifiedException: peer not authenticated

To be clear, after solving the Browse Error on the tablet, I can make that connection just fine. The test runs via bubblesoftapps.com, right? Something changed there too?
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
All your woes is due to the DSM6 update, which broke the old BubbleUPnP Server SPK package and requires to manually update the default OpenJDK Java 8 to Oracle's Java 8 ( OpenJDK has problems, including that pesky SSL error)

To fix it do this:

- uninstall the BubbleUPnP Server package

- upgrade Java 8 to Oracle Java 8 following carefully the instructions from MinimServer

- download the latest BubbleUPnP Server SPK and install it manually
[Android Apps and Games] MarmiteSandwich:
Hi,

Great app (and the server software). Question I asked before, which didn't have a solution at the time, maybe it is solved now. If I share an album from Google Play Music to BubbleUPnP, it is added to the OpenHome queue, as expected and plays fine except that every now and then the last few seconds of a track are cut off and the next track starts. Kind of coitus interruptus. I have gapless playback enabled, because I need it. Renderers Windows/Foobar and Raspberry Pi/Rune Audio both exhibit this behaviour.

Marmite

W10/Minimserver

W10/BubbleUPnP Server
[Android Apps and Games] BlagoBuster:
I did so, when the DSM6 update came out, and installing java8 this fixed my broken setup then. I did it again, when the BubbleUPnP client updated and stopped working (Sunday). I have Oracle java8 running, latest version, for Synology NAS with Intel processors (jdk-8u92-linux-i586.tar.gz). I still have the SSL error. Also, these are two unrelated errors, imho...

I understand that DSM updates can cause problems for the app; but app updates should not break a working setup, I think - the android app identified itself as "new" to the DSM's Media Server, and was blocked because of it.

I disabled auto-updates on the BubbleUPnP server; is it possible to disable it on the android client as well? So I can update when I've got the time, and breaking stuff doesn't spoil my TV night?
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
I made a recent SPK update (on April 19th) that address this SSL issue.

If your SPK is older than this date, please do a redownload + reinstall.

I think you can disable automatic app update for all apps in Google Play, but not for individual apps.

Android BubbleUPnP updates are safe and mostly bugfixes.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Does this cut off happen with gapless disabled ?
[Android Apps and Games] MarmiteSandwich:
I disabled gapless in the BubbleUPnP Server and the cut off happened just now. It is intermittent, because I replayed the offending track and it didn't happen the second time.

PS The playlist was created originally with BubbleUPnP on an Android, but I am replaying the playlist from Linn Kazoo on W10.
[Android Apps and Games] BlagoBuster:
OK; on 1st of May de-installed, then re-installed using the install package of the Synocommunity (with the latest java8); got the ssl.SSLPeerUnverifiedException error. Just now, just for fun, tried installing the SPK you linked to here, installing it manually (after de-installing the other one first). No change, still the same ssl error. BubbleUPnP server is working though, so I'm not complaining :)

Running BubbleUPnP Server version 0.9-update19 on Synology NAS DS214play

[Android Apps and Games] Popshoedelia:
Hello, first of all I have the paid version on my phone which I use to control a Foobar2000 server and a Yamaha RN301. Things are by no means perfect but I put a lot of this down to my home network and the Yamaha unit.

Recently I've installed BubbleUPNP server and using the Media Server proxy and OpenHome Renderer has definitely improved functionality--giving me pausing and seeking, though there is some crackling which I don't think is related to the Bubblesoft apps.

One thing I've noticed is that Scrobbling seems to be broken on my Android phone with both the official app and WAIL when I play to an OpenHome Renderer.

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] zachofalltrades:
I bought the Android app so long ago and have generally been very happy with it. I would be tempted to buy it again if there were a few enhancements:

1. when setting up a connection to BubbleUPnP Server, I can specify which connection type (disabled; mobile; wifi / ethernet; or mobile / wifi / ethernet) --- this does not quite cover my use case. I would like to be able to specify something along the lines of "wifi, but not on my home network".

2. There is an integration with Pocket Casts, but I use BeyondPod -- I can easily add a 'custom mount point' for the BeyondPod downloads directory, but I am wondering if there is some additional podcast-specific feature that I am missing out on that is available with Pocket Casts --- perhaps like marking items as 'listened' or accessing its playlist?

3. I was thrilled when the Musixmatch integration was added for easily getting lyrics and more cover art -- it would be really nice to be able to generate links to other meta data sources, even if we have to jump to a browser to get it: MusicBrainz, IMDB, TVDB, etc.

PI Volumio no more recognized

Hi !

I'm using BubbleUpnp to control my PI volumio player on my phone & my tablet. The player is no more recognized (on both devices) since last update. Any idea ? Thanks.

Edit : solved by installing beta apk on the tablet. Upgrade to the last version didn't recreate the issue. Nothing made on the phone, works now too. I guess something was stuck on volumio.

Hi,

First of all I wanna be clear that I'm a total noob, so sorry if this is a total noob question.

Bought yesterday a Raspberry Pi3, and installed Openelec on it. That went verry smoothly.

I wanna use the Pi as a mediaserver. Media is coming from an external USB-HHD, attached to the Pi. That works fine.

But I also have a chromecast. What I want is to look movies in my bedroom where the tv with chromecast is, and the Pi downstairs on the Lan. It would be great if that works, so I don't have to use my Windows laptop. Is it possible to stream movies from my Pi to my chromecast without using my Windows laptop, using my android phone to as a remote?

I just upgrade my Samsung Galaxy NOTE 4 N910C, to version 6.0.1 Android. It is stock version distributed by Samsung.

I have Bubble v2.6.3.1 installed too and MX player + codecs and ES Explorer. After upgrade to 6.0.1 it is not possible to choose MX player as local renderer. Only ES Explorer player is possible to choose. I reinstall Bubble, reset default player and clear all temporary files of Bobble apk. Still tha same problem. Only ES Explorer player is avaliable on list of possible player used by Bubble.

During using ver 5.1.1 of Android, MX player was possible to chose.

How can I resolve that problem?
[Android Apps and Games] NDR008:
I got the exact same problem. Only ES Media player is available as an option. I even went and set MX as the default for my android system, but Bubble will only show ES... :(

Best option to install BubbleUPnPServer on stationary ARM device?

What would be the best (or recommended) way to install the server on a stationary ARM device?

I have a Odroid C2 Cortex®-A53(ARMv8) with Ubuntu 16.04 on it and I installed the server via the .jar file, plus FFMPEG from the distribution. I made a BubbleUPnPServer.service file with

[Unit]
Description=BubbleUPnPServer
After=multi-user.target

[Service]
Type=idle
ExecStart=/opt/BubbleUPnPServer/launch.sh

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

myself so the systemd process runs as intended.

After seeing that you have .ipkg available now, with a pre-made ffmpeg, I am wondering: Would it be better to install from .ipkg? Maybe it is faster, leaner, or avoids future compatibility problems. Or is my setup completely equivalent to the .ipkg? What is recommended?
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
The best way is via Optware-ng. It provides an easy to install package with a full featured ffmpeg. Refer to BubbleUPnP Server web site for instructions.

It's an Android bug happening sometimes after an upgrade to Marshmallow.

The fix is to install "app picker classic" and click on delete all defaults in the app menu.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
[MENTION=6261163]Breedt[/MENTION]

Yes, simply install an UPnP/DLNA media server on your Pi and configure it to index your movies. Serviio should work.

Then use Android BubbleUPnP to browse it and play to your Chromecast. You may want to install BubbleUPnP Server (via Optware-ng) as well for transcoding, but a Pi will only be powerful enough to transcode audio in videos (eg DTS and AC3).
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
[MENTION=1332436]zachofalltrades[/MENTION]

1. It would need a more complex UI for telling BubbleUPnP what is your home WiFi. It cannot determine that automatically. No plan for it currently.

2. I believe BeyondPod allow to play/send/share podcasts to external apps. Try this to send to BubbleUPnP and it should play.

3. no plan for this currently.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
[MENTION=7449835]Popshoedelia[/MENTION]

Scrobbling is not implemented in Android BubbleUPnP for OpenHome renderers (because these renderers can play without Android BubbleUPnP running).

There's SkobbleDS that scrobbles for any OH renderer.

proxy renderer as chromecast

I have a few renderers around my house that are basically old cell phones or tablets paired with bookshelf speakers and running the BubbleUPnP Android App. I wanted yet another renderer, so I pulled my old Chromecast out of a drawer where it was gathering dust and was quite pleased to see how easy it was to have BubbleUPnP server recognize it and present it on the LAN as if it were an OpenHome renderer or simply a DLNA renderer with more file support than it has out of the box. It works great.

Then I had a thought. There are several Android media apps that will cast to a Chromecast device but not to DLNA/OpenHome. Would it be possible to have either of the following?

1) BubbleUPnPServer proxy DLNA renderers as Chromecast devices

2) BubbleUPnp android app present itself on the network as a chromecast device

Thnx for your answer. Have been trying for several days to install the components you said, but it fails every time, with several errors. Managed to install your bubbleUPnP, but always get stuck on the Optware-ng.

In OpenElec is installing impossible, so i switched to just Linux (Jessie). There I'll managed to installed your prog, but the Optware? That's a no-go, as is the Servioo.
