The first screen shot shows that tracks are sorted by title (minus the track number). Did you enable Settings > Display > Show track numbers ?

Without "Smart Sort", BubbleUPnP always displays folders items in the order the Media Server returns them, which can sometimes seem wrong.

I've tested with Twonky 7.1.2 and I confirm it returns tracks sorted by title (not by filename). For example if stored files are:

01 - Artist - C title.mp3

02 - Artist - A title.mp3

03 - Artist - B title.mp3

Twonky returns tracks in title alphabetic order (which is displayed unmodified by BubbleUPnP)

A title

B title

C title

Now, enabling "Smart sort" gives for me the expected track order:

C title

A title

B title

So I can understand why "Smart Sort" doesn't work in you case, you can send me a log file browsing to the folder (see first post of this topic for instructions).

can you share me your foobar folder ?

thanks a lot.:good:
[Android Apps and Games] gerhardat:
yes, is enabled. no difference in behaviour if enabled or not (just tested).

can confirm

if i enable "smart sort" it´s still A B C title. there is no difference enableing / disableing smart sort for me.

Was away for the weekend and did not see this post - THIS IS AWESOME NEWS !!!! This is EXACTLY what I was hoping you would develop !! Can't wait to try it out !! Please let me know if I can be of any assitance in the testing and debugging area ! Any idea of when you might start this development effort ??? Been looking for this type of app for MONTHS and can't wait to give it a whirl !!

Thanks again for your FANTASTIC APPS !!!
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
The log shows that the "Smart Sort" feature doesn't infer that this folder is an Album, thus doesn't sort it by track number.

That could happen if the "Album Artist" tag (as returned by Twonky) is not constant accross the tracks.

Does smart sort work on some other albums ?

Alternatively you can look into configuring Twonky to return items in filename order (provided your track filenames start with the tracknumber) for "By folder" browsing.

It involves editing a Twonky config file, not sure which one. Googling should give some details.

Buy license for BubbleUPnP for my Kindle Fire

Hi,

thanks for a great product! I have been using it on my SGS2 (fully paid up) for ages and it is brilliant :)

I have just got a Kindle Fire, and have copied the .apk for BubbleUPnP to it; it works perfectly.. however without the google play store available on the Kindle I cant pay you for this installation. I'd like to support your work and get rid of the ads.. how can I buy a license and install it on my tablet?

thanks in advance!

MX Player Pro

Very nice UPnP/DLNA client/server/control point. But ... it works flawlessly with VPlayer/MX Player, but works not with MX Player Pro - the player is not listed in available players list ... am I doing something wrong or is it a bug? Re-installed MX Player Pro many times :)

I have bought both sw (BubbleUPnP and MX Player Pro) and it is little annoying to have installed even MX Player (lite) to get it to work together...

thx a lot in advance...

Love this app. I use it primarily as a remote for my xbox, but notice that it keeps my phone from sleeping. It'd be nice to have the option to disable wakelock for users like myself
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Nothing should prevent you to use MX Player Pro. When you say "the player is not listed in available players list" do you mean that when you click a video, the app chooser doesn't list MX Player pro (it does on my Nexus 7) ?
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
That is a quite common Google Play error, often unrelated to not having issuficient storage. Try Googling "insufficient storage available" and you should find plenty things to try.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
You can't, unless you can root your Kindle Fire and install Google Play on it and have it in a working state to install the purchased license.

[Android Apps and Games] jaykraly:
Thanks for the quick reply. I have been distracted solving some other problems with the rasberry pi's and just got back to this. I think the problem is that anytime I restart the rygel process on any of the servers they reset their volume to 100%. So it is not a bubbleupnp problem. But I'm wondering if a default volume might be a desirable feature in a controller? In other words, any time i choose to play music to a new renderer (or a re-connect if the connection is lost to a renderer) set the volume to some pre-defined level. There is probably some way to set the default volume of Rygel, or PulseAudio, or Alsa, or GStreamer, or whatever other process is happening on the server, but it would be nice to have a standardized method in the control point.

insufficient storage available jb 4.1.2

I've searched on google before but I have not found the solution working

I get this error only with bubbleupnp

And when I've updated the SGS2 to jb bubbleupnp already installed and since then "insufficient storage available" appears only in bubbleupnp

I have installed applications show big size and not the problem ... example: kingsoffice flightTrack, Snapseed...
[Android Apps and Games] blatotlacka:
eeehm...

OK, once again, the problem was between the keyboard and the chair... as usual... I have manually set MX Player Pro to NOT resolve HTML links and ... it does not :), so the app chooser did not list it.

I have the program settings stored at google servers, so every time I installed fresh copy of MX Player Pro, the settings was applied again and again. So let me apologize, this is not your bug, this is me noob :)

Thank you for your answer...

A happy user and one request

I've been happily running BubbleUPnP for android for a while on my touchpad and my logitech revue and I've been very pleased with it.

There's one new feature I'd like to see. A setting that allows the BUbbleUPnp playlist to delete songs as they are played so the playlist works more like a queue. I build my playlist and then just keep adding to the end of of it. I've been running foobar2000 (with your uPnP component) and can do this with the foobar playlists.

Bubbleupnp Server Service DOES NOT START, not matter what, I have uninstalled, reinstalled it and still not a go. I go to Administrative tools >> Services and try to start it ( it's set as Automatic but does not start after Windows restart) and try to start it and after half way off feeling a green bar it comes with a pop up saying:

ERROR 1053: THE SERVICE DID NOT RESPOND TO START OR CONTROL REQUEST IN A TIMELY FASHION

I had also try to set the service to start Automatically with a Delay and still not a go.

I'm running Windows 7 64bit. I have to say this was working fine before, but now it does not want to work
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
It sounds like the automatic Java updater messup up the Java install. It happens sometimes for unknown reasons.

To fix it, simply reinstall Java (the 32 bits version, labelled "Windows x86"): http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre7-downloads-1880261.html
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Noted, although no promise if/when will get implemented.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
VLC is not a renderer, thus it cannot be seen by BubbleUPnP as a target to play videos.

You can instead install XBMC, as it is a renderer that will be seen by BubbleUPnP in the Devices tab. In XBMC settings

you will probably have to enable the relevant option to enable the renderer feature.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Thanks for the followup. That's good to know that MX Player has a setting to not handle http links. I may even add such a setting in BubbleUPnP.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
If Rygel resets its volume to 100%, I advise you report this issue to the developers as it is not expected behaviour.

You can also investigate using gmediarenderer-resurrect as it works well on the Pi and with BubbleUPnP. There's a nice tutorial here.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Unfortunately no, and I researched this issue quite a bit. Windows SSDP discovery seems to hate BubbleUpnP proxies.

That's puzzling, given the UPnP devices created by Android BubbleUPnP are detected fine.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
I've added this Xbox360 specific workaround: on failure to play current track, it plays next track.
[Android Apps and Games] stevelrose:
Thanks!

[Android Apps and Games] komarak:
Hey Bubbleguuum,

I set up another test. I punched a hole in my firewall for Bubbleupnp on my android to connect to my Bubbleupnp server at home. While at work and with my phone connected to my work LAN I fired up Bubbleupnp on my phone and successfully connected to my Bubbleupnp server at home through my phone - i.e. standard Bubbleupnp Tethering. Really never did it the way you intedned before. Well then fired up Windows Media player on my WIndows 7 Tablet - also connected to my work lan - and WMP could immediately see my Bubbleupnp on my phone - but could not see my home DLNA server (Wild Media Server) through the tether. Then I fired up VLC on my Tablet and it could see both my Bubbleupnp on my Android and Wild Media Server proxied throgh my phone. I also tested with XBMC on my Tablet - both Bubbleupnp on my phone and WIld Media Center were visible. So I can only conclude that what ever method is used to "advertise" the proxy DLNA servers by both Windows Bubbleupnp Server and Bubblupnp Android share a common issue with Microsoft products (Windows Media Player and WIndows Media Center) seeing the advertized proxies.

Can anyone else please confirm these results ?

I'm having problems getting some album artwork to show up. I'm using Bubblegum from a Ubuntu server, via android phones & tablets to play out of a raspberry pi.

Where are stored the streamed files ? BubbleUPnP local Media Sever ? An external media server ? Is your xbox connected through WiFi ?
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Yes I confirm this. The issue is that WMP / Windows SSDP discovery doesn't want to list proxies, while every other software does. I've verified that the proxies answer to WMP M-SEARCH request and several other parameters but I could not find anything wrong. I'll find it eventually but this will take time as this issue is really mysterious and only MS knows what WMP is expecting...
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
As suggested try pausing with another Media Server that your usual server (for example stream from the local media server), to check if this problem is Media Server related.

The message on the TV is, "The file you've selected is not currently supported." I also receive the same message if I browse the phone form the AllShare menu on the TV.

Do I need to purchase the license for this to work, or is there something else going on that I'm missing?

Issue with some media streamed via BubbleUPnP

I'm having a problem with my wife's Nexus 7. I have a Plex media server and BubbleUPnP on her tablet. Whenever I go try to play an xvid file, the media player will launch, hang for a bit, and then exit back to BubbleUPnP. I've tried Moboplayer and MX Player. Any h264 file I've tried seems ok. I tried switching MX Player to software decoding and downloaded a codec pack off the market. After doing that, the video will start and play well for a couple of seconds. But then it will either turn extremely slow and choppy or I'll just see some artifacts and glitches and the video will stop.

Anyone have any ideas? I'm able to stream the same files fine on my own tablet and phone with the same media players on the same network

Firstly - an excellent bit of software and many thanks for making a server package to run on Synology NAS.

The installation instructions for synology NAS could be a lot simpler given that there is now a package - they look daunting to those of a less technical bent but most steps are no longer needed (or so it seems to me after installing it just now)

I'd suggest the following change to the FAQ (number 8)

How do I install on a Synology NAS ?

Install Java. See this guide for a manual installation (link 1 from current FAQ) or this one for an automated installation (link 2 from current FAQ).

Download the Synology package and save it to you hard disk (spk file)

Load up DSM and Open Package Center

Select Install/Update and choose file (select the spk you just downloaded)

Click install

Wait 1-2 minutes after installation for BubbleUpnp to start up

Click BubbleUpnp on the applications menu on DSM

Hope that helps ...

Whether APE audio format supported by BubbleUPnp

Hi bubbleguuum,

Whether APE audio format supported by BubbleUPnp?

I'm using BubbleUPnp as a media control and media server on my android phone.

Rygel on PC as a media render.

It works fine except APE format audio can't be played because GStreamer doesn't

support ape demux in push mode(via http).

Do you know any way to work around this issue?

Like transcode APE to other fomat?

Technisat ISIO S, Playlist stops after each title

Hi bubbleguuum,

I am looking for a UPnP Controler and found BubbleUPnP. Im very happy with it so far except one issue equal to that posted by Timmer2000 on 19th Nov 2012:

I contacted the Technisat support and asked them to fix this bug. Their answer claims, that this behavior is just a result of missing commands in the playlist. To do the job properly, the renderer needs additional information how to proceed after the track. Sounds to me as if Technisat states that UPnP does not send the commands correctly.

Or are they just blaming BubbleUPnP because they do not want to work on their bug.

Kind regards

Internet Radio streaming

Hi, i have a suggestion, it would be great to have the ability to render an Internet radio from phone to some other device a good way to do this should be to make an interface between winamp's shoutcast to bubble upnp. Winamp actually have lots of radio stations so it would be great to make a link between both programs

Just tried this app yesterday while streaming from my foobar2000. Streams flawlessly over my home wifi and able to fetch the album arts and all that. Love it!
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
No you do not need the license.

Some Samsung DLNA TV can be very problematic as they are extremely picky in the info they expect from BubbleUPnP to accept to play anything (in particular for video). It doesn't help that fixing such issue is almost impossible without having the TV to test.

Do you also have this issue if you push a mp3 ? If so you can send me a log file playing that mp3 (see first post of this topic for instructions).
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
First, playing a file stored locally is very different that playing it with http streaming, from the POV of the video player app (MXPlayer, ...).

That explains why sometimes a file stored on the SD Card plays perfectly while it fails playing over the network.

Not guaranteed to work at all, but did you try MXPlayer H/W+ decoder ? Make sure to enable it for network sources. Also, while testing various setings, whenever you change decoder settings make sure to exit MX player and start playback of the video again in BubbleUPnP to test the new settings.

If you cannot get it to work, I suggest you report it to MX Player developers with detailed technical infos on this video.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Thanks, I've updated the page, removed the faq entry and put your instructions in the Installation section.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Android BubbleUPnP as a Media Server has no transcoding ability.

The only way to push APE to Rygel would be that you use an external Media Server recognizing APE (foobar2000+foo_upnp, Asset UPnP, PS3 Media Server, ...) and you configure it to trancode to WAV.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Ok, if you get occasional drop outs it is very likely due to WiFi which can be very spiky in transfer speeds (compared to say a wired connection with has constant speeds). Maybe you can check the quality of your connection with WiFi Analyzer.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Yes, that's typical useless "not our problem" answer from manufacturer.

You can send me a log file, letting a track play until track advance fails (see first post of this topic for instructions).

Thanks very much-- I followed up with Serviio and they confirmed that they currently only support 160x160, but also said they have a ticket for supporting higher resolutions coming in the future... but until then, can you offhand recommend another media server to support higher resolution artwork?
