Thanks for the hint. I tried it, but it didn't work. Restarted all devices (PC, Receiver, Router), didn't work. Even a reinstallation of the BubbleUPnP Server and Kazoo didn't work, now it won't play at all... If I add one song to the playlist, it says "1 Track added to DS" (but doesn't play). If I add a playlist with 30 songs, I get "-1 track added to DS". Any ideas? Perhaps I made an error with the configuration, but I think I tried everything... Also, at "media renderers", my receiver has no name at the left...?

**EDIT** Well, I didn't think on cutting the power of the AV Receiver, he went just on stand-by. Then I used BubbleUPnP Server on the tablet AND PC simultaneously... Long story short, if you have "-1 track added to DS", try shutting down the AV Receiver completely. Worked for me, sorry for bothering :rolleyes: :angel:

Hi.

Ii there a way to have the covers of the albums in the Album view ?

My albums are in folders and Bubble found there, but don't show the cover of the tracks.

Thanks.

[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
You need two things:

- on your PC, have the firewall allow TCP traffic on port 58050 and (if using https) 58051. That's probably the case already

- configure your router (via its web interface) to add NAT rules for redirecting connections to ports 58050/58051 to ip:58050 and ip:58051, where

ip is the local ip address of the PC running BubbleUPnP Server. BubbleUPnP Server will add these rules automatically if your router supports UPnP IGD and if it is not disabled. Adding a NAT rule is simply filling a form on the router with the ports and ip info.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
It depends on the media server. Some of them do not return album art to BubbleUPnP.

What media server are you using ?
[Android Apps and Games] lafa011:
Ok, thank you for clarifying this for me but just one or two more additional questions:

I understood that I need this in case I want to connect from any other internet network than mine, so do I need this at all just to be able to see my PC's folders on my local LAN, so I could stream to Chromecast directly from BubbleUPnP Pro android app, and not to use ie ES file Exp to select file from PC and then play it through BubbleUPnP as a workaround?

All I need is access to my shared PC's folders inside my BubbleUPnP app library, on my home network and how to do it?

Thank you!

Incomplete file list when connecting to Synology NAS

Hi, I'm a licensed user of bubble upnp app. my problem is, that i have the imprssion, that the app doesn't read the complete dlna index data and dozends of existing directories are not shown in the the directory listing of the app, when i use the "by folder" view. if I take a look von the NAS (synology) via smb the dirs & files are there and the content can be played. in the bubbleupnp dir list they are missing. the same behavior can be shown on the files level, so there are dirs that show no files in it, while there are files existing, and being playable via smb or via Synology audiostation app. I'm a real fan of bubbleUpnp because its really fast picking up the dir lists and it's very comfortable when changing between different media renderers.

I would be very pleased if you would be able the solve this problem. there are several disks with several directories on each drive containing thousends of sub dirs with upto hundred files in each dir. just to give you an impression of the amount of files...

I've already checked this problem out with the synology service and we have prooven, that its not an error on the server side... I've tested it today with a different app which doesn't show the strange behavior to loose dirs and files, but to be honest the reactivity of this app was a mass, it took me more than 5 min to complete a list of 2442 subdirs, so to say unusable for me...

would be nice to hear from you soon

BubbleUPnP server on NAS will not play m4a files

Hi.

I'm running bubbleUPnP on a synology nas with minimserver and I'm using it for the open home function with a Denon ceol n9 so that I can use Linn Kazoo on the iPad to play music.

It works extremely well and I'm most grateful for it. Of course there is a snag and that is it will not play any m4a iTunes files but will play MP3 and flac even hi res and does gapless. For ages I assumed it was the Denon that couldn't play the files but the spec says it can. So today I tried playing these m4a files using the Denon iPad app and they all played fine. My linn Akurate DS also plays them fine so what am I doing wrong? Anyone got any suggestions as I'm stumped.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,

Bob.

Hi.

I just wrote you an email with a problem with Bubble.

Look:

00:03: I put some music on my PC with Foobar2000

00:13: I click on Library>foobar2000 Media Server (the 2nd one, after Local and Cloud)>Play Stream Playback

00:21: the music stops on the PC

00:28: I click again on my PC

00:37: you see om my device the music I am playing now, as if I were using Foobar2000 Controller and not Playback Stream

00:43: I click on Library and then change to Rendered>foobar2000, the music stops again.

Sorry, I can not post yet links so just look the video; I can send you again the link if you want.

Regards.

EDIT:

Here is a crash report when this afternoon I try use the random songs on your app. First it started to play on my PC when I only wanted to hear it on Bubble, and then, Foobar just crashed.

Hi. Can you fix that please, it stars to be annoying after buying the app. When I try to reproduce some music on my device with the Google Play feature the music plays on my PC but not on my Android. :crying::(:confused:

[MENTION=3387214]keschnitzler[/MENTION]

BubbleUPnP always list the folders/items by your media server. If some are missing, it is that the media server did not return them.

The cause is ususally because its database is not up to date, or it omitted some items it does not support. There is nothing BubbleUPnP can do

here. Try to trigger a rescan of your media server. Make sure it is configured to scan the correct folders and that it has filesystem permissions to do so.

This is different than SMB/CICFS browsing which always map 1:1 to the filesystem structure.

Note: a media server can return different browse trees to different clients.

Please send me a log file, attempting to play such m4a track to your Denon in BubbleUPnP controlling the Denon as a regular (non OpenHome renderer) renderer.

Dear [MENTION=3373153]bubbleguuum[/MENTION], thanks for your wonderful app! I've bought it long ago and have been using it for a long time...

One question (searching the thread didn't produce the result for me):

have an Android phone (S4) which I use as a WiFi Access Point.

Is it possible to use it as a renderer (stream music to my S4 over WiFi), while having my library on my main device (Note4) fed from Note4's mobile data?

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Note sure what you mean by "Note4 mobile data" but if your Note4 is connected to the S4 WiFi Hotspot, then yes it should work. If the Note4 is also connected to mobile data (3G or LTE) then it will likely not work (because Android is absolutely brain dead for routing network traffic properly in the case of multiple network interfaces).
[Android Apps and Games] Andycar:
Thanks, I thought that this is a limitation of Android.

I'll try read more about routing in Android...

When I try to hear some music from my PC with Foobar2000 to my android device the app (Bubble) it seems to work as a Foobar2000 controller, I mean that it seems as a control remote, I see the music on Bubble but I can not hear it. When I press play on Bubble the music on my PC it just stops, no matter if I use playback stream because when I press on that option the music, again, stops on my PC.

I can not explain better than tell you what it is happening. On the previous post it is well explained, maybe you do not know exactly what the error is. Please, if you have a particular doubt just ask me because I can not do more so if you need some data just tell me exactly what do you need. Have you seen my crash report?

Embedded subtitles don't work. I'm casting MKV videos from my android phone to the TV via Chromecast. When I click on the subtitle icon, it says "subtitle: none." Any suggestions?
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
You need to install BubbleUPnP Server for embedded subtitles extraction (assuming textual embedded subs such as srt, not image based).

PS: sub extraction will be very slow for files stored on phone (it has to read the whole file), although it is only performed once.
[Android Apps and Games] animedreamer240:
I already installed BubbleUPnP Server. So I have to play the whole video without subs first, then subs will appear? I'm playing episodes from a series, so would I have to do this for every episode?
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Assuming BubbleUPnP Server (not local transcoding!) is detected (check in Settings > Chromecast). that 'Settings > Chromecast > Extract embedded subtitles' is enabled and that you installed BubbleUPnP Server on a machine with proper ffmpeg (that the case for Windows/MAC/Ubuntu), less so if running on a NAS), when you play a MKV with embedded subs and extraction was not yet perfomed, you should see a toast message stating that subtitle extraction is started. There will be another message when extraction is done, which can take several minutes. Once this is done you can select the subtitle in the Now Playing screen.
[Android Apps and Games] animedreamer240:

What makes a renderer being able to be gapless or not?

I'm enabling the upnp feature on kodi and bubbleupnp server doesn't allow me to make the renderer a gapless openhome renderer.

I know the whole upnp business is not very well implemented in kodi so I'm not expecting much, but is there something i can do to make it gapless? Technically kodi plays gapless music when playing files from its indexed library.

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
A renderer can theorically do gapless if it implements a specific command for telling it what is the next track to play. Some renderers declare having this command but either do not implement it, or incorrectly, so the presence of this command is not a guarantee of working gapless. In any case, Kodi does not have it, hence no gapless.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Urgh. My bad. Subtitle extraction is disabled for movies managed by the local media server (that is locally stored on your device or in the cloud), because it is deemed too long (compared to an external media server, more likely to be using a wired connection) and more importantly to be causing stutter because BubbleUPnP Server has to read the whole file for extraction at the same time it is streamed to the Chromecast, all of this using the WiFi of the phone.

So no sub extraction for locally stored media. I kind of forgot about this in my previous reply.
[Android Apps and Games] Rknexus:
Still not working though...Only works for downloaded videos..Doesn't work for videos which are directly streamed..

Hey, thx for all the great work! It's working like a charm with a server on a Synology coupled with a MinimServer and a couple of clients in the house.

But I have the same problem as the fellow user, you answered in the quote, with our kitchen client - a Motorala Milestone (yep still alive and kicking!).

Since Google Play Services force close every other hour there (those FC's were pretty common on the faulty Motorola rom) I had to deactivate/freeze them via Titanium Backup. But then the BUPnP license isn't working anymore.

So I assume just having that stuff installed isn't enough, it has to be running, too. Is there any way to still be able to use that set up without a Google account after installlation (too public in the kitchen) and with frozen Services/Play Store?

It's a stripped stock Rom with the last working BUPnP for Froyo and the latest (?) license apk from the Play Store.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
No, the license app purchase on Google Play requires the Google Play app + Google Play Services for license verification.

The option without Gooogle Play is to buy the Amazon version of BubbleUPnP, but you will have to repurchase it (install via the Amazon Underground app, purchase is done with an IAP in this version)

BubbleUPnP Server

Hello,

Is this the right place to post questions about BubbleUPnP Server?

If not, can someone direct me to correct place?

If yes, can someone give me some advice?

I am running the latest version of BubbleUPnP Server on my QNAP NAS.

I have it configured to have an Open Home Server for one of my streamers.

Occasionally BubbleUPnP seems to loose the OH Server and my streamer just plays a warbling sound.

When this happens I cannot see see the OH server on my BubbleUPnP client either.

I would like to see the Log File but I can not seem to find it.

Where is the BubbleUPnP Server Log File stored on a QNAP installation?

Thanks,

Chip
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
The log filemane is BubbleUPnPServer.log.0, but I do not know where it is located as I did not make the package.

BubbleUPnP Server Log Files

Hi,

I am a simple user without any shell experience. I will try to read up on this but I am a bit reluctant.

Do you think you could ask the person who builds the package to put the Log files in a folder where they are easily accessed for users like myself?

When I look at my QNAP I can see several folders that could be used - home, homes, public.

I am also running Minimserver and the log files are stored in public for easy access.

Is this possible?

Thank you for a great product, both server and client.

BubbleUPNP folder accidentally deleted

I have accidentally deleted the BubbleUPNP folder in my sdcard. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app but it doesn't recreate the folder. How can this be fixed. The app can no longer play any media file after this. Please help.
[Android Apps and Games] the_brad:
Since the last two beta updates, I have serious problems with bupnp not recognizing my licence anymore.

Deleting data of lic.app doesn't help. I whitelisted it in android doze and greenify. Nothing was changed in my config anyway.

I'm on Xperia Z5 Premium, 6.0.1..

The only way to get it to work again is a reinstall on playstore. Error message is that stuff about "frozen with titanium.." (You know, what i mean ;))
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Nothing changed regarding this in the latest betas.

That message appears when the main BubbleUPnP app cannot bind to the license app's Service for verifying the license. Usually because the license app is frozen (disabled) either explicitly or automatically by a user app like Titanium or Greenify on rooted device, or more recently by system level apps included in stock ROMs of some manufacturers (Most notable and widespread being Samsung with the infamous 'Smart Manager' app being a rebranded 'Clean Master' from Cheetah mobile). Since I see you are using Greenify, if you are using its Xposed module, make sure one one of the 'alpha hibernate' features is disabled (do not remember the name, but it is only available in the paid version of Greenify, in the Xposed advanced settings).

There is no need for a manual refresh: each time you enter the navigation drawer, BubbleUPnP refreshes it automatically.

If some renderers are not discovered, try this:

- toggle your phone WiFi off then back on. Eventually restart BubbleUPnP after that

- reboot your WiFi router

- make sure your WiFi router firmware is up to date

- reboot the problematic renderer, make sure its firmware is up to date

I was able to resolve this, it was not a problem with bubbleupnp but with my router ( GoldenOrb_2016-04-01 ( OpenWRT r48430 ) ) - this new version has Multicast Forwarding disabled, which seems to be needed for (some?) dlna devices to find each other. Maybe bubble can be made to work even with Multicast Forwarding disabled like my other devices in my network?

BubbleUPnP can decode and proxy Shoutcast streams, stripping dynamic metadata (titles) for playing to renderers not supporting Shoutcast. The Shoutcast stream is then played as a regular mp3 or aac or vorbis stream. This also apply to local playback. UPnP AV provides no way to provide dynamic metadata to renderers so they can display it. A hack could be done to make it work in the local renderer case, but currently I have no plan to implement this.

Hi, I'm having trouble getting AAC passthru for DD+ to work on my chromecast.

My setup is:

Serviio -> BubbleUPnP Server -> Chromecast (2015) -> AV Receiver

My AV Receiver gets DD+ from Chromecast using the Netflix app so I know the hardware all works.

I have "preserve multi-channel audio" checked. I've tried using both options in the app regarding passthru of AC-3.

I'm attaching a log for casting an MKV containing x265 and AAC. The BubbleUPnP Server log says its passing thru the audio, but receiver only gets PCM stereo sound :(
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Netflix is not implemented as a regular Chromecast receiver and is a special case with abilities that no other app can have (DD+).

From the log, BubbleUPnP Server only transcodes h265 to h264 and leave the audio AAC 5.1 stream untouched (it is not AC3 btw), as expected. So if your receiver says stereo, the Chromecast is downsampling AAC 5.1 to stereo, for whatever reason only Google knows about.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Indeed the log will not help in that case. I will have to try this app and see how it goes.
