BUG report: Cant get tethering a UPNP server to work with a Windows VLC (nightly) client. It shows the tethered server but not any sub folders. Tested other which works fine, Jamcast, DVBViewer.

Reproduce: Activate UPNP tethering on android device of remote BubbleUPNP server. Open VLC 64bit nightly build http://nightlies.videolan.org/build/win64/last/ (stable does not support UPNP on Windows). Open playlist go to Universal PlugnPlay. The tethered server is listed, but does not contain anything, double click on it does nothing.

Like said, all other I tested work.

Also: if you open a stream video in Windows Explorer (UPNP browse) it doesnt work with VLC either or any other player than the Windows Media Player, I guess something isnt standard in the link or metadata.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
VLC is broken in the way it browse the root of a media server, sending a bogus request:

07-05 15:14:58.795: W/UpnpStream(24793): Processing stream request failed - org.fourthline.cling.protocol.ProtocolCreationException: Protocol for message type not found: (StreamRequestMessage) POST /dev/6392fee0-e2f2-ca21-ffff-ffffcc00ed39/svc/upnp-org/ContentDirectory/action?ObjectID=0

And this is without tethering at all: it fails browsing the root of regular media servers such as WMP, BubbleUPnP, foobar2000, MinimServer, ...

Strangely it works with Twonky and Jamcast.

Anyway this is some VLC lunacy, so I suggest you report it to them as a bug, testing with one of the above media servers.
[Android Apps and Games] mkdr:
[MENTION=3373153]bubbleguuum[/MENTION] Ah thank you, I thought it may be a VLC bug though I wasnt sure because the other UPNP serves worked I had for testing. I really hate VLC, their forum is broken you cant login, their bug tracking system doesnt work too right now. Their devs never respond to bugs and so on... I only use VLC because it's the only simple video player on Windows I know which supports a few things I need, for example recording a stream.

Anything on why Windows Media Player is the only one working when you open a media file from browsing the tethered server in Windows Explorer though? This was another bug I already noticed some years ago but never reported it. I have a Plex server which I use via BubbleUPNP and the Plex server has a m3u plugin which access a Video oder IP stream (TV) of the ISP. For example I have This PC\Plex Media Server: remote-pc\Video\Video Channels\IPTV\CNN and I can double click it in Windows Explorer and it opens with Windows Media Server, but with no other Media Player. VLC for example wants to download the file and gives an error message.

Trouble with license

Hello, recently I've been having trouble with the app recognizing the license. I've tried reinstalling the license and app which seems to work for a few minutes. I didn't have this problem before I had to do a factory reset of my phone.

The interesting thing is if I open the license "app" and follow the link to the Play store to install/open the main app there are no issues.

I am on Kit Kat.
[Android Apps and Games] undefundef:
allright, understood.

tnx for the explanation.
[Android Apps and Games] TheFlyingPig:
I was wondering if anyone know if I need to change a setting somewhere.

It's been working great for years with ps3mediaserver.

Since the 2.3.6.X update, the files no longer show up. In place of all the files, I get a #-TRANSCODE--# folder.

If I look in that folder, all the file names (preciously in the parent folder) now show up as empty folders. There is no file in each folder.

I have essentially lost access to all the files.

It seems to be the same regardless of whether I connect to a bubblepnp server or not.

Two issues

Bubbleguuum,

Sorry to post without reading the full 930pages here... Probably this was already asked:

1- is there any way to avoid playback issues when transitioning from one AP to another on my WLAN? I have two routers (one downstairs and another upstairs)? Every time my phone changes network the next music on the playlist won't play and, if I press play again, after the end of that song the next will not play either (need to close app and open again).

2- which upnp server supports organizing the albums by year? I'm using serviio but it doesn't sort albums like this. Any clue?

Thanks and congratulations for this amazing app, it really is outstanding!!
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
1. Changing AP will change the WiFi and redetect renderers on the new network, possibly resetting the renderer. There's no real fix to it but if you select a renderer on the new network, it should work without restarting the app.

2. I suggest MinimServer for music. You can configure its browse tree in any way you want. Note that in album lists, BubbleUPnP offers the possibilty to sort albums by years independently of the media server used, it the media server set year on albums (which all will not do). To change sort order, use the dedicated icon at the top .

BubbleUPnP v2.4 is available, bringing Qobuz support, TIDAL improvements and small bugfixes.

Details

[Android Apps and Games] Dexter666:
When seeing tidal I've decided to try it with bubbleupnp.

Got a question though - how to stream videos and not only music to my dlna devices..?
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
What videos and to what DLNA device ?
[Android Apps and Games] Dexter666:
Tidal videos to smart tv.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Just select your TV as a renderer (side menu) and play the video.

Though I noticed there's an issue with my Samsung TV (2014 model) with an error 716, and I must look into it.

If you have any other issue, let me know (and error message if any).

hey [MENTION=3373153]bubbleguuum[/MENTION]

i have a question and a request :)

request:

is it possible to make a bubbpleupnp ask for the rendering device when the on selected is not available?

like i selected chromecast before wich is offline now and i want to share to my smarttv now

this is extremly anonying when sharing stuff through semperlinks because you have to go through the whole process again after selecting the correct rendering device

question:

is there any way to speed up the process for sharing to the tv? any settings that can be unchecked or something?

keep up the good work, love your app :)
[Android Apps and Games] Dexter666:

[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
I know. Samsung TVs requires proxying and these are HLS video (.m3u8) for which proxying

is problematic and not handled at the moment. I'll see if I can find a fix but no promise.

You should be able to play them locally with MX Player for example (make sure to select the local renderer as current renderer).
[Android Apps and Games] Dexter666:

Same issue. Panasonic and most DLNA TV need proxying due to stupid DLNA requirements.

Qobuz and BubbleUPnP Server OpenHome extension

Hi,

I tried accessing Qobuz through the latest BubbleUPnP release. I usually stream to my renderer (Mind 380D) wrapped by the BubbleUPnP server extension. I could not get any sound out of Qobuz. I then decided to stream directly to my renderer without OpenHome support, and then Qobuz worked correctly. When thinking about it, it may be normal for Qobuz not to work in an OpenHome environment, unless the OpenHome layer knows how to handle the Qobuz playlist independently of the BubbleUPnP control point. Am I wrong here ? Is there a current incompatibility between Qobuz and the OpenHome extension of BubbleUPnP Server ? If so, will BubbleUPnP Server be updated to fix that ?

Thanks Bubbleguuum for this great new feature.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Hi Andre,

Qobuz should work with any OpenHome renderer, with the caveat that Android BubbleUPNP must be left running to perform authentication for each track as well as proxying the stream for the renderers that need it. If I get the go ahead from Qobuz, I will add direct Qobuz support in the BubbleUPnP Server OpenHome implementation, so this is not necessary (like TIDAL).

Assuming you have this issue with Android BubbleUPNP left running, So I can look to your current issue (no sound), send me 2 log files:

- the BubbleUPnP Server log file, attempting to play a Qobuz track

- an Android BubbleUPNP log file, playing successfully a track
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
BubbleUPNP doesn't manage equalizers directly but spawn external equalizer apps (letting you choose which one to use if there is more than one).

There's a bunch of them on Google Play, some of which can save settings.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
There's some chance it will work on the WDTV if it is able to play HLS streams.

Anyway, I'm going to attempt to fix the issue with proper HLS proxying (which is not entirely trivial vs regular streams proxying).
[Android Apps and Games] GourouLubrik:
Proxying Qobuz shared playlist in Bubble Media Server ?

I'm using this topology

Foobar2000 @ Work =fb2k remote internet upnp feature=> BubbleUPNP Server @ home <=> Android BubbleUNP

Using the great new Qobuz support, I've saved some Qobuz files to a shared playlist in the Android Bubble and trying to play them through remote upnp server, but it won't play.

Unable to open item for playback (Reported file length changed):
"h t t p://localhost:58050/stream/audio/64bb4a6b7d300e7bdb05b3094233d361.flac"

(added space in http because of anti-newb-spamming feature)

Is there something you can do about this ?

Anyway, I'm a great fan of your work, and a bubbleupnp / openhome evangelist :good:

Hello :)

first time im using upnp (bubbleupnp)

i have a device that i can stream to it upnp

i want to make youtube playlist for kistening to music, i dont care about the video at all

how can i add a song from youtube to a playlist ?

when i click share and choose bubbleupnp , the bubbleupnp open but with no info about the track and i couldnt find where i add it to a playlist

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] glennpierce:
Thanks

Thanks for BubbleUpnp it is the one Upnp client that seems to work well with large remote libraries.

I have started writing my own upnp client but then noticed yours has everything I was going todo except one feature.

Would you consider adding Allplay support qualcomm webiste (search for allplay)

It allows sync streaming to multiple speakers at once like Sonos

There is a free Android library downloadable from that site.

Failing that could there be some kind of plugin system ? To add this kind of thing ?
[Android Apps and Games] flyfire04:
Just a little thing that would be awesome if supported by your app: http://www.aftvnews.com/amazon-fling-allows-android-and-ios-media-casting-to-fire-tv/

[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:

[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
No plan for AllPlay.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Thanks for the feedback.

Playing Qobuz this way is not supported.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
An update on this: all my attempts to proxy m3u8 HLS streams to DLNA TVs (Samsung and others) failed miserably, so playing such videos (TIDAL, but not only) is only possible to renderers able to play them directly without proxying. For example Kodi and Chromecast (transcoding support required for Chromecast, just for remuxing).
[Android Apps and Games] ultrasuper:
Interesting.

I cannot find any hint of equalizer settings in the System Settings, nor can I find any app installed on this mbox relating to sound or eq settings. :/
[Android Apps and Games] Stereolab:
Hi Michael, sorry to disturb, but I have been facing an issue while using BubbleUPnP Server for OpenHome integration with Lumin Control Point. Problem occurs when I try to populate large playlists. Somehow, the control point loses contact with the OpenHome renderer. Curiously, the playlist was sent and learned by the renderer but I have to kill and restart the Lumin app to restore communication with the OpenHome renderer. Also curiously, for this fresh session the former playlist is currently displayed. This issue is intermittent on my system, but not rare. Anyway, this never occurred with BubbleUPnP control point or Kazoo. Thanks for help and attention.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
The Equalizer in BubbleUPnP is used only for local playback to the local render.

When the local renderer is the active renderer, you can spawn the equalizer in the Now Playing tab, in 3 dot menu > Equalizer.

If there are more than 1 equalizer app installed it will let choose which one to use.

If there's just one equalizer app (Android has a default one) it will launch it.

There are many equalizer apps available on Google Play that can be used in place of the default one.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
If it only happens with Lumin, it is likely to be a Lumin problem.

I do not have an iPad so I cannot test. It would be best to report this issue to the Lumin developer (psme)

as he might be interest looking into it.

[Android Apps and Games] TheDigitalJockey:
Some of us use this app to stream Kodi to BubbleUPNP to chromecast but when we want to watch Kodi on the phone we can't because BubbleUPNP doesn't have the option to switch to a local player. What I usually do is get the URL stream on BubbleUPNP and when I tap on it, it asks me what player do I want to open.

I know we've talked about this before but is there a way for BubbleUPNP redirect to a local player? I can do it with a few taps but is there a way to make it more user friendly?

Hello, I just bought the paid version of Bubble UPnP but I an unable to use it to listen to my Google Music acct.

I was very happy to see that it had this capability but unfortunately the app will not work in this way for me.

When I try to sign in, I get this error: "ssl+0x6a23dd00: Failure in SSL library, usually a protocol error."

What can I do to make this feature of Bubble UPnP work for me? I am using an Acer A500 running 4.4.4.

Any help is greatly appreciated!
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
I'm not sure exactly what you mean. You can play any video to your local player of choice when tapping a video (with the local renderer being the current renderer (top side menu)).
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
This error is unusual and point at something broken in the SSL libs on this device/ROM.

Try to reboot your device in case it is an intermittent failure.

If it persists, there's nothing I can do
[Android Apps and Games] Andre Gosselin:
Hi,

Thanks for your help. I have attached the requested log files. My renderer is a Simaudio Moon Mind, for which an OpenHome extension is defined with BubbleUPnP Server running on a Win7 platform. My Android BubbleUPnP runs on a Samsung Galaxy Tab3 with Android Version 4.4.2 .

Following steps were followed.

1- Restart BubbleUPnPServer on Win 7.

2- Restart Android BubbleUPnP and activate logging.

3- In Devices tab, select "Local Media Server" as the Library, and "Mind (OpenHome)" as the renderer.

4. In Library Tab, navigate to Qobuz > Albums and select album "Dowland/Jones: The English Orpheus".

5. Try to play track 1. Track fails to play, with an "Action Timeout" message.

6. Back to the Devices Tab, select "Mind" as the renderer.

7. Repeat steps 4 & 5. The track plays correctly.

My Qobuz account is a "Premium" type, so I can only stream in MP3 320 Kbs quality. I have consequently activated "MP3 320 Kbs" Audio quality in the Qobuz settings.

Maybe this can be of some interest. When I try to play through the "Mind (OpenHome)" renderer, the "Now Playing" tab systematically shows "Flac | 44.1 KHz | 16 bits" as the audio type the first time I try to play a track. If I attempt playing the same track second time, the audio type shows as "MP3 | 44.1 KHz" (but the track still does not play). If I now play a track through the "Mind" renderer (no OpenHome), audio type is immediately shown as "MP3 | 320 Kps | 44.1 KHz" on the "Now Playing" tab, and plays correctly.

I hope you can figure out what is the problem. I will happily feed you with any other info you may need.

Regards,

André Gosselin
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Problem found: when playing to the OpenHome renderer, Android BubbleUPnP instructs to play a FLAC unconditionally, not considering the nature of your account (Premium) that should force mp3, nor the Audio Quality setting. This of course does not work. It would work with a HiFi account or higher.

I'll need to fix this issue in Android BubbleUPnP.
[Android Apps and Games] scalleygwags:

After I read your reply I restored my phone and now it works as you described. It was failing when you transfer the stream from BubbleUPNP to the local player so you had to use the link but now everything is working. I don't know what happened.

Dear bubbleguuum. Been using a purchased copy of your wonderful app for a while and just love it. :good:

There are a lot of really great features, but lacking of two things for me.

1) Better YouTube play quality. Is there a possibility to increase to 1080 ? Or it some sort of limitation ?

2) Ive saved a bunch of playlists during the period of time and want to download them in max quality with an external app or PC what even better.

Is there any chance to implement a playlist export feature in near future ? :fingers-crossed: It may be a really useful and highly demanded one, i suppose. It would make my life so much easier, instead of trying to find them all again ((

[MENTION=3373153]bubbleguuum[/MENTION], Is there any way to keep LTE while connected to a device via WiFi while using Audio Cast? I want to connect to my WiFi audio receiver using WiFi and use mobile LTE to stream a music service such as Pandora or Spotify. I'm on a Galaxy S5 with rooted Lollipop 5.0/Xposed and it seems to work with Spotify only, but skipping songs will make it hang as my WiFi audio receiver does not provide internet. It does not work with Pandora either.

Edit: BubbleUPnP also doesn't recognize my WiFi Audio Receiver if I set a static IP on it. Is there a fix for this? Also, is it possible to fix these issues by using some android firewall by only allowing BubbleUPnP access to WiFi when this specific network is connected? I'm pretty sure there should be a less roundabout solution to this.

[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
1) There's a limitation: although it is possible for the app to retrieve the 1080p stream, it comes in MPEG-DASH format which most devices are unable to play

2) Can you explain 'download them in max quality' ?
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Your audio receiver streams Audio Cast from BubbleUPnP so the receiver does not need Internet access.

Not sure what the problem is with WiFi vs LTE but this scenario can have complications.

You can send me a log file if you wish, playing Audio Cast Spotify until it fails, with detailed explanations on what you did.

See first post of this topic for logging instructions.

BubbleUPnP doesn't care how the device's ip was attributed for device discovery, so this is a renderer (or router) specific issue.

- Try rebooting your WiFI router

- make sure there's not a firewall blocking traffic on UDP port 1900

I think there's a bit of confusion.

I wanted to use this thing in my car:

http://www.amazon.com/SABRENT-Receiver-Portable-Speakers-WF-RADU/dp/B00L26YDA4

I'd connect to it via WiFi. But since my phone is in WiFi mode, it would disable LTE. I need LTE to retrieve music from Spotify/Pandora (as they require an internet connection to work), and WiFi so I can stream to the device.

From Sabrent's (the device) website, there's a tutorial (for iPhones only) that says to set a static IP and subnet mask, and leave everything else blank, which will "disable" WiFi (it will still be connected to the WiFi audio receiver but will re-enable LTE on the phone) on the iPhone allowing 3G/4G access. On Androids, there's no such option to leave other stuff blank, and BubbleUPnP doesn't seem to recognize the WiFi connection if I attempt to set the static IP either (although setting the static IP doesn't re-enable my LTE, so it's not like it makes a difference).

Any suggestions or tips for me to get this to work the way I want it? I know download boosters allow WiFi and LTE at the same time, but I'm not looking for downloading faster, I just want to be connected to the device via WiFi and still be able to use internet by going through LTE.
