Thanks for you're prompt answer. The Cambridge 851N has no native Tidal support like it has Spotify support, so i assume it needs the tablet with BubbleUPnP as a proxy. Because the quality doesn't suffer because of this it's no problem!
[Android Apps and Games] wolf.roesler:
Thanks for your quick help. Cloud is now back. Re my Tidal account: every time I close the app the Tidal account is shown as unset in the settings menu after restarting BubbleUPnP. I can however select Tidal in the cloud section and it starts playing normally. Looking back into the settings after playing from Tidal is now showing the correct account details (without having them entered manually). So no loosing of an account but maybe a little inconsistency in the settings menu after exiting and restarting the app.

Thanks again

Wolf

Yes indeed there's an inconsistency: the account only show up if you are logged into TIDAL (that is: entered the TIDAL folder in Library).

Not a huge problem but I will fix it.

Nothing has changed in the last update regarding the license.

If you still have this issue, please send me a log file logging the first minute or so after app startup.

See fist post of this topic for logging instructions.

Magic happened because the update has nothing specific to your issue.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
What problem do you have?

Not sure it will help but you can set webContextPath in BubbleUPnP Server's configuration.xml if you need

to change the root URL of BubbleUPnP Server. for example, with:

<webContextPath>/blargh</webContextPath>

In Android BubbleUPnP you would connect to http://<public ip>:<nginx port>/blargh

nginx would receive that request and forward it to http://<lan ip>:58050/blargh.

Same here, also on a 64 Bit System, LP 5.0.2.

But I've kept the symlink and copied the file to "/data/app-lib/com.bubblesoft.android.bubbleupnp"

Works.

PS: No need to decompile the APK.

The missing lib can be found at: "/data/app/com.bubblesoft.android.bubbleupnp-1/lib/arm64"

There is definetely something wrong, while copying the file at install time.

How to connect pen drive in router USB socket

Hi,

Been using BubbleUPNP (paid version) with Chromecast to play music. Works really well. Problem is too much music, not enough storage.

My router (BT Home hub 3) has a USB socket. Plugged in a pen drive and it shows up on my network and I can access the files on this drive through connected PC and ES file explorer on my Nexus.

What I would like to do is to load up the pen drive with more music and be able access it on my Nexus with BubbleUPNP and Chromecast it as I do with music currently stored on the Nexus (when PC is off and router left on)

I'm sure it can be done but I can't find out how to do it.

Any guidance much appreciated.

Cheers RontheRon

Mac VNC confused by Tether server

Hi!

I've set my Windows 7 laptop that lives at my girlfriend's place to run your Tether server, so her iMac can access my music library through the Mac version of VNC, which I've installed on her machine both so it can play FLACs (the format for most of my library) and act as a UPnP client.

I use "junctions" (alias folders) to tie my index folder tree (which is what foo_upnp and Twonky on my home machine serve via BubbleUPnP Server) into the original files in a music folder tree. I do this so I can get at one copy of an album via different musicians' folders in the index tree, which confuses the hell out of tag-based navigation - which lists (and thus plays) every cross-index of a track before moving on to the next track - so I always use folder navigation, which plays albums properly.

This setup works fine on my AVR as a renderer, my Blu-ray player as a straight DLNA client, Android BubbleUPnP on my phone, and foo_upnp on my remote laptop - but on my girlfriend's tethered iMac, VLC acts as if I was doing tag-based navigation even when I choose Folder! Even with an album that's only indexed under one musician, it lists - and plays - four copies of each track before advancing to the next. (It lists whole albums multiple times as well.) It shows each of my library servers being relayed by the tether, and I can go into each one of them to do folder navigation, but they all behave the same way.

To see if it was the fault of the tether server, I pointed my phone - and foo_upnp on the laptop - at the tether server as the library, but they behaved properly, only listing things once, so it's not the tether server's fault.

Any idea what's going on and what I can do to deal with this other than manually creating playlists for albums inside VLC on my girlfriend's iMac?

I bought Bubble BubbleUPNP License one year ago (6.8.2014). Now, Application show me warning "Unlicensed APP".

Clock going out of sync

I have a problem with my phone with the BubbleUPNP-app installed. It somehow makes my phones clock to drift and not sync up with internet time, which has made the phone to be hours behind some times. The only way to make the clock to have correct time is to restart it. I have done factory resets in order to exclude other apps and settings.

My phone is a Nexus 5 (2013) with stock Android 6.0 (updated OTA). I'm more than happy to help you with logs or more information if needed. Before updating to Android 6.0, there were no problems with the app and the clock.

Suppress empty/blank genres please?

Hi,

I love the product and have bought the licence. There is one little niggle that I have.

I use different tagging depending on whether my music is Pop, Classical or Soundtracks.

Therefore, I use Genre for these three labels only. For some reason, when Bubbleupnp is serving media, it shows these 3 genres and dozens of others that are all empty.

Kodi / XBMC and Foobar only show non-empty genres.

Is there some setting that you could provide to suppress the non-empty kind?

Many thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] thegrantonstarcause:
Thanks for replying. Yeah, I've gotten the webContextPath bit right.

Basically, I'm reverse proxying various services through nginx. My configuration for bubbleupnp is as follows:

location /bubble {
proxy_pass http://192.168.1.121:58050/bubble;
proxy_redirect off;
proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
}

I access my service remotely using:

https://blah:port/bubble

The issues that I am having are:

1. When I access the URL via a browser I get taken to the web configuration. However, is there any way I can secure this from remote access? (would .htaccess work?)

2. When I try to connect in BubbleUPNP Android app, I get an error saying it cannot connect because the HTTPS certificate signing has an issue (I guess because my certificate is unsigned or because it's not the certificate the app is expecting?)

Any ideas on what I can do?

Thank you. It is very helpful. The box looks good although 9:59:59 is the max. I do not recollect having any book >10h... but I have a large collection. I am impatient and prefer listening to them at 1.2x - 3x depending on the narrator :o

Your box inspired me this -

[IMG="dial"]i.imgur.com/Js7JUaw.jpg[/IMG]

One can move their finger in circle on the two dials to change hours and minutes. One should be able to rotate their finger several times to seen (360 != full length) And a play button to resume. It would be great to immediately listen to the audio on stopping and seeking again if i am at the wrong position.

Not being an android developer, I have no idea how hard it may be to implement this. But, I think it will look cool.

Alternative to Android for control point???

Hi,

Really love the work here. Everything works great, other than the fact that there is always 5-20 sec of latency. I was wondering if it is possible to merge everything going on between my computer and the android app, so that I can just control everything on my computer.

Set up is as follows:

Foobar2000 with foo-upnp, serves to BubbleUPnP Server on the same computer,

Chromecast Audio, on the same network,

BubbleUPnP, also local network.

I was imagining there must be some way for me to do the same job as the android app on my computer, and what is limiting this is only software related.

No independent programs I have found (like Kinsky or Kazoo, etc.) are simple, lightweight, and more importantly able to detect the Chromecast.

I imagine a chrome browser extension is possible, similar to Plex, but allows you to choose your own media server on the network, to me that would be a simple fix, but nothing like this seems to exist.

Any ideas? Can someone make a chrome extension like this?

If this is completely not possible, what exactly is limiting the development of it or making this particularly difficult?
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Why Android doesn't do the right thing at install time is still a mystery...

Apps do not have to copy native libs themselves or do anything special.

This is normally handled by Android at install time. Unfortunately, I do not have

an arm64 device to test and find the cause. I also do not believe it happens

on all arm64 ROMs.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Send me a log file, logging the first minute or so after app startup (see first post of this topic for instructions).
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
I'll see what I can do. The empty genres comes from the Android media scanner that added these genres at some point.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
That problem is certainly not due to BubbleUPnP... Or if it is, it can only be BubbleUPnP triggering an Android bug over which i have no control.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
No idea really. Seems to be a VLC issue.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
1. Since BubbleUPnP Server receives the request from nginx, it doesn't ask for credentials since the request comes from the LAN.

So you'd have to add authentication for this URL, at the nginx level

2. did you try: proxy_pass https://192.168.1.121:58051/bubble; ?

Android BubbleUPnP doesn't expect a specific certificate, and your self signed certificate should work.

But there can be so many gotchas with certs so who knows...

It's ok, I have solved the problem. I saw a reference elsewhere to stopping the media library process and clearing its data.

Bit of a brute force approach! It's a shame that Google does not provide an editor for the data on that thing to remove obsolete information!

[Android Apps and Games] groggy12:
Thanks for your reply. It looks like I'm not the only one being affected according to issue #189789 at the Android bugtracker. I find it a bit... sad that your app should be the one triggering this behaviour on my phone. Better hope that the Android team comes up with a fix so I can use your app again.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Ouch, that issue is very bad, and specific to Marshmallow.

Can you check if putting BubbleUPnP in the list of "unoptimized" apps (as shown in this screenshot) makes the problem go away ?

To do that:

- go in the device settings > Apps

- tap the gear icon

- tap battery optimization

- open the drop down menu and select 'All Apps'

- tap BubbleUPnP in the list and select "Don't optimize"

Audio quality

Hi all, I recently bought a new Onkyo TX-NR646 receiver which brought me into the world of audio streaming. At first, everything looked easy enough with my HTC One M8 out of the box support of dlna (local wifi). Simply setting the media output to the Onkyo got me unbelievable crystal clear audio quality, even for older less quality mp3's. Until it came across a flac file and the player reported something like player unable to play this type of file. The HTC player not connected to the Onkyo does play flac, the Onkyo remote app does play the flac, but I don't like this app. I really do not understand why, but the manual says the onkyo does not support remote playback(??) of flac (so why the onkyo remote app does play, and the htc player not??)

So this started my search for alternatives, which led me to bubbleupnp app. At first it looked great, fast and easy, plays all including the flac. However, where the HTC player gives me crystal clear sound, playing via BubbleUpnp does not (Same files, locally on the extra sd card in the HTC). There is a clear loss of dynamics and it sounds like everything is transcoded to a lower bitrate. I looked in the settings and where I found highest bitrate, I set it to disabled.

Is there anything I can do to make BubbleUpnp sound the same as my HTC player?
[Android Apps and Games] groggy12:
I added BubbleUPnP to not be battery optimized and I will let my phone be for a few hours/the night (afternoon here right now) and I will be back tomorrow or the day after that (yes, it takes some times to realise if the clock drifts or not...). Regarding the issue, it is (not) nice to see it being marked with low priority.

Mixcloud shares cannot seek

Hi!

When I share a track from the Mixcloud app, BubbleUPnP plays the track on the selected renderer (local, UPnP or Chromecast) from the beginning. The Mixcloud app itself can seek into tracks.

Is this a problem with BubbleUPnP or Mixcloud?

My scenario is that I listen to some 3 hours long shows on Mixcloud, and when I come home I want to continue listening, just switch to my home cinema equipment. It connects through DLNA/UPnP and ChromeCast.

Thanks in advance,

Peter
[Android Apps and Games] groggy12:

Hi Bubbleguuum,

I have a problem with the playback quality on my mobile device.

I use the latest BubbleUPnP APK and the license.

When I play Music from local storage (SD Card) the technical Info shows me that it is played with 320 kbps, when I switch to my BubbleUPnP-Server (Synology NAS) I am only getting 128 kbps even on WiFi. I disabled transcoding on mobile connection but it has no effect on the quality above 128 kbps. On the other hand I can use 64kbps on mobile connection transcoding and BubbleUPnP is paying on lower bitrate. But when I switch to "no transcoding" or 320 kbps it doesn't go over 128 kbps.

So I thought maybe there is a License Issue. After some tests I deleted everything on my device and re-installed the apps and configured them again manually - no effect. There is also no difference between the renderer (Denon AVR-X4000 or local playback).

Then I have uninstalled the BubbleUPnP-Server on my Synology NAS and checked the Local DLNA Media Server - Everything is okay. I installed the Server again and it is working fine but my 128 kbit Problem still exists.

Every mp3 is 320 kbit...

Do you know what to do?
[Android Apps and Games] baaabovka:
Hello guys.

I am facing a problem which drives me crazy! Casting images from my phone (lg g4) to CC is extremely slow! It takes at least 5 seconds to display one single picture on CC. I have also tried to instal local transcoding but the result is the same.

Did anybody notice the same problem?

Thank you for any help.
[Android Apps and Games] Dreamweaver:
Maybe my 128kbbs-Problem is a display problem because I re-installed the bubbleupnp-server and I asked a Friend if he can check my bubbleupnp music - and he also told me that he only gets a 128 kbit stream from my NAS.

I downgraded BubbleUPnP Android App to v5.3.1 but also only 128 kbps displayed.

I remember that Synology updated the media Server some days ago but I didn't change any settings... I also checked the settings...

And: I disabled XPrivacy for BubbleUPnP + License of course :)

Use my Note 4 with USB Audio Player Pro (UAPP) to play flac/DSD files to my Chord Mojo USB DAC.

Found your Bubbleupnp App which lets me link my Google Play & Tidal accounts (no Spotify ??) and then using UPnP/DLNA in UAPP I can see BubbleUPnP Media Server which shows my music folders but also Google Music, Google Drive, Dropbox etc. and in the case of Google Music lets me feed tracks at correct frequency to the DAC.

All great except for my main need which was to be able to access the linked Tidal account HiFi files, but this doesn't show in the BubbleUPnP Media Server list (does in BubbleUPnP itself). Why is this? Have I missed a setting somewhere ?

When will there be Bubbleupnpserver for wily?
[Android Apps and Games] alex.del.var:
BubbleUPnP is a very good app, the best smartphone DLNA controller I have ever tested. I recommend it to everyone who wants to control easily a DLNA system or use DLNA advanced features. The large parameter list is really appreciable to custom the app UI & other functionalities as the way you want to use it. That is why I think I BubbleUPnP deserves to be bought.

I am just having an issue when I use BubbleUPnP to control my Sony BDP S4500 Blu-ray disc as DLNA player : when I am playing a playlist, the second song in the list is always repeated. When I perform play next song action, the two next songs are played as expected but the second is repeated again. I have reproduced the issue with two smartphone devices using BubbleUPnP.

This problem does not occur when I use BubbleUPnP to control a Windows Media Player as DLNA player, nor when I use Windows Media Player as DLNA controller to control my Sony BDP S4500 as DLNA player.

That is why I suppose there is maybe an incompatibility between BubbleUPnP and Sony BDP S4500 device.

Is this issue solvable? I would be grateful if my problem could be considered.

I thank you beforehand and congratulations for your awesome job.

Can BubbleUPnP get a list of renderers from bubbleupnpserver ?

Hi,

I'm running latest BubbleUPnP on my phone, and latest bubbleupnpserver (0.9-update10) on my computer (linux). I have a smart Sony DVD player capable of both wifi and ethernet. My wifi is on a different subnet than my ethernet (for example one is 192.168.1.x and the other 192.168.2.x)

If I put my DVD player on wifi, BubbleUPnP on my phone can see it, and since I connect it to my bubbleupnpserver, I can play videos served from my computer via minidlna, since bubbleupnpserver discovers this media server running on the same computer and makes it known to BubbleUPnP. It is no problem that the renderer and server are on different subnets, and videos play fine.

However, if I connect the smart DVD player to my ethernet, BubbleUPnP can no longer see it (since it's on a different subnet), however bubbleupnpserver can see it then, and lists it under the "Media Renderers" tab. I can even check the Openhome checkbox for it but it makes no difference.

The problem is I cannot play anything from my phone to this renderer because BubbleUPnP app does not list it in this case. Putting the DVD player on wifi is not a good solution because my wifi is much slower than my wired connection.

Here is my request: Can you make bubbleupnpserver share the renderers it knows to the BubbleUPnP app that is connected to it? Everything is in the same home network by the way, it just happens that my wifi and ethernet are on different subnets of the same router.

I'm thinking that similar to how bubbleupnpserver shares media servers to BubbleUPnP, it could share media renderers too. Then my phone would be able play videos to those renderers, even though it's on a different subnet than the renderers.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
0.9-4 was just to bring systemd compatibility to Vivid and higher, so there's no need to upgrade for Ubuntu versions prior Vivid.

However, following your suggestion, I just made 0.9-4 available on Wily and Xenial.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
If you share a playing media from an app to BubbleUPnP, it will always play from the beginning.

This is expected and BubbleUPnP cannot automatically resume from where it was playing in the sending app.

You have to seek manually in BubbleUPnP. If the problem is that you cannot seek in BubbleUPnP, let me know,

although I saw no such issue with MixCloud.
