From the screenshots, it looks like your NAS runs a version of Twonky.

Twonky can associate different browse tree to different (browsing) devices, so this is likely the problem.

To fix it, go to the web configuration of Twonky, in the "Sharing" section.

In the "Media Receivers" section locate the problematic device and set "navigation" to "Advanced Media Navigation".

It might be a bit different depending of the Twonky version but you get the idea what to look for.

Feature request

Would it be possible to show on the Now Playing screen the # of the track as it relates to the playlist? For example, 1/15 would let me know that I am on track 1 of 15 tracks, 15/15 would let me know I am on the last song. I know I can go the Playlist tab but having this on the Now Playing screen would be convenient. I am used to seeing this info on other playback software I have used.

Some folders indexed in WMP do not show up in BubbleUPnP on Android

I installed latest BubbleUPnP on my Android tablet last week and joined it to my Win 8.1 (x64) computer via home network where my media library is indexed in Windows Media Player.

I have added folders to my "libraries" in Windows where, say, my Video Library includes my Videos folder (of course), as well as my Downloads folder and one other user-created folder, "{UserName}\Pending" (which also contains multiple video clips in several sub-folders). WMP has indexed

all

these folders with no problem and

all

their video files show up in the Videos section of Windows Media Player.

When I open BubbleUPnP in my Android tablet, though, and go to Videos/Folders (under my computer's Homegroup server library) , only the video files from my computer's "Videos" folder and "Downloads" folder show up, all interleaved within the single Videos folder in BubbleUPnP (the folder hierarchy under BubbleUPnP's Media heading is actually "Videos/Folders/Videos").

None of the files from my computer's "Pending" folder, or its sub-folders, show up in BubbleUPnP -- even though they all show up perfectly in Windows Media Player on my PC. (None of them shows up in BubbleUPnP under "All Videos" either, or any other sub-category of "Videos".) The same is true of all media files stored in the "Pending" folder on my PC, which have been added to the Music and Pictures libraries as well. Again, they all (music, pictures, as well as video files) show up indexed within Windows Media Player.

Why are these files not being seen by BubbleUPnP, as they are all properly indexed in my Win 8.1 Libraries the same as the files in my computer's Music, Pictures, Videos

and

Downloads folders?

Thanks for any answer you may have.

Hi,

Any thoughts?
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
BubbleUPnP Server 0.9-update9 available, now with an easy Mac OS X installer.

Details

.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
In Settings > Audio Cast, you try to force Audio Format to LPCM or WAV to check if one or the other works.

You can also try to increase "Audio buffer length".

If nothing works, set default values ("Auto" for "Audio format", and 1000ms for "Audio buffer length", and send me a log fie attempting

to play Audio Cast to this renderer (see first post of this topic for logging instructions).
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
No plan to add such functionality.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
This is definitely due to WMP not returning these videos via UPnP for some obscure reason, even if the video appears in the local WMP library.

This is difficult to troubleshoot as WMP is kind of a black box. Could be due to a permission problem that only affect UPnP. But it could be something else.

You may want to Google this issue searching for WMP UPnP problems when adding new files.

If you can, I really suggest using another media server such as Kodi or Serviio, which are more predictable.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
This means that the TV is not responding to UPnP discovery search requests (thus not discovered immediately), but notify it's presence by itself at 15 minute intervals and discovered then. This could be a router or a TV problem.

Try rebooting your router and TV to check if it fixes the problem. If it doesn't, make sure your router is updated to the latest firmware. Same for the TV.

Are you playing to your TV directly, or via Chromecast ?

For better compatibilty, Chromecast is preferred, with transcoding installed through BubbleUPnP Server or local transcoding (it will just do a remux in most case incurring no loss of quality nor heavy processing).

The BBC streams are not working for me currently, even in MX Player. Other streams work.

Looks like TSC has a hard time buffering these streams and it result in a stream not playing.

I know it worked at some point so might just be temporary.

For Chromecast, yes for sure, assuming your NAS media server send srt over UPnP/DLNA (not all of them support it).

If it works on the LAN (for subs), it will also work remotely.

I'm not sure this if this will be problematic for Acestream (Torrent Stream Controller) remuxing to Chromecast, if you choose to use that.

If you really use this scenario, then it works.

Other than that, there no much point in adding libx264 support if the NAS is not powerful enough.

Fatal issue in Bubble UPNP 2.3.5

Error while adjusting the volume.

The sequence of steps to repeat the mistake:

1. Set sound volume on DMR to low level. (in my case DMR = Media Monkey player)

2. Run bubble upnp. Connect to DMR.

3. Press decrease sound volume button on smartphone => volume level on DMR sets to !!!!MAX!!!! It's VERY scary if you have powerful speaker system.

Possible solution:

Synchronize the volume on your phone with the volume level on the DMR device after connecting.

Sorry for my english. Please, read private message from me :) It's not spam.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
What version of Media Monkey are you using ?

This is normally not possible unless the renderer is buggy and set volume to max for whatever reason (or send bogus volume values to BubbleUPnP).

BubbleUPnP goes to great length to prevent volume scares, but it assume a non-berserk renderer.

As for your PM, I'm not an UPnP developer help desk...
[Android Apps and Games] gromit56:
Answer

It's not bug in Media Monkey 4.1.5.1719, because other apps (for example my app) works well.

Bug in Bubble UPNP.

"As for your PM, I'm not an UPnP developer help desk..." - You can tell me where it is better to create my question?

Unfortunately information on the Internet is sufficiently small.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
I could reprod the problem and it turns out that it *is* a MM bug with the Volume variable eventing.

I even forgot I reported this bug to them a while ago:

http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=74849&p=380214#p380214

You do not have the bug because I assume you do not use eventing to manage volume.

The usual way is to detect TransportState transitions from PLAYING to STOPPED to initiate playback of the next track.
[Android Apps and Games] gromit56:
I thought that there are more interesting ways to switch to the next track.

Thanks!

HI

NOW IT'S WORKING :D:D:D:D:D

Yesterday I restart the telephone and first the program showed the message about the license, but later, inside of the options, the programs said that it was all OK.

Finaly, I restart another time the telephone and now the message about the license has disappeared

Thank you for your help
[Android Apps and Games] pichongallego:
Both of them are updated to the latest version. In any case, it's no big deal. If I turn off and on the TV a couple of times and it usually appears.

Strangely, I get better compatibility using the TV directly than using the Chromecast. It seems that when the TV shows the message "File not compatible" it doesn't mean that it cannot play the file but that it has run out of buffer to play. If I pause the show for a couple of minutes and press 'play' again I usually don't have probles with the compatibility. This also happens with BBC streams, although I have to leave it buffering for longer.

I'll recheck this. Somehow I didn't find the option the first time but it should be possible as my NAS does indeed sned srt over DLNA.

Noted.

Thanks a lot for your help.

I've got the same problem with the VK app. I've also got the pro version, and I always used VKontakte to play audio, and used BubleUPNP to audio cast the music to Kodi or the BubbleUPNP receiver. Since a week or two, it does send something to the player, because the visualizer is showing activity, but there is no sound at all. Really strange. Anyone got any solutions? xd

Connot See JPlayStreamer as Renderer

I just installed the new version of JPlayStreamer (v6) and I'd like to use it as a renderer with MinimServer and BubbleUPNP. For some reason, BubbleUPNP server cannot see JPlayStreamer as a renderer, even though BubbleUPNP for Android and Linn Kazoo can both see it. I think this is causing me not to be able to use Tidal in Kazoo or BubbleUPNP for Android. I posted to JPlay's support forum and they think if may be an issue with the BubbleUpnp server. I'm running the latest version of BubbleUpnp, Kazoo and Minimserver. Any ideas?
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
BubbleUPnP Server only detects regular UPnP AV renderers to eventually transform them into OpenHome renderers.

JPlayStreamer is an OpenHome renderer, thus not detected, this is normal.

You can still play TIDAL to JPlayStreamer using only Android BubbleUPnP, but this will require you let Android BubbleUPnP running for playlist track advance.

To benefit from BubbleUPnP Server OpenHome TIDAL integration (thus not requiring Android BubbleUPNP running), JPlayStreamer would have to be a regular UPnP AV renderer and the OpenHome functionality provided by BubbleUPnP Server (instead of JPlayStreamer).

No problem here playing Beatport to Kodi 15 alpha 2 (should work with stable too).

I didn't try the VK app.

What Android version are you running? If 5.1, I didn't try Audio Cast on it yet (but it works on 5.0.x).

Can you check playing to Kodi on a PC ?
[Android Apps and Games] tkruijer:
Haah, you are right, Beatport works great up here. I'm using 5.0.1, there seems to be a problem trying to audio cast the Vk app. Google Play music works great too. No idea what changed with Vkontakte though!

Thanks for the support, I'll so some different apps for audio cast. :)
[Android Apps and Games] befaddled:
Turns out my sd card was starting to fail and was losing new files. After replacement, I am reliably able to access downloaded files via the local media server. As you mentioned, they don't "link" to the server like cached files do, so that does mean that playlists for downloaded files have to be created manually, but that's not a major concern. I agree that the caching feature works well as-is, and is one of the app's best features, to me. Thanks bubbleguuum!

I am seeing an issue with using Download and transcoding from flac (foobar streams, but file never gets written on the client side, and the client side doesn't show the usual transfer rate). I'll do some further testing and send logs if it doesn't appear to be network-related.

---------- Post added at 04:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:28 PM ----------

Not certain whether it's the same roon cause as what was mentioned for #3, but if it helps, what I have noticed in the android app is that the scroll bar (for lists long enough to have one) area overlaps the menu button area, so I end up jumping to a different part of the list if I try to tap directly on the ellipsis (which is displayed only about 1% of the screen away from the scrollbar). If I aim a little to the left of the ellipsis, but still within its trigger area, I have better luck. If the list doesn't have a scrollbar, I can open the menu comfortably. Perhaps if there isn't sufficient room to avoid overlap, either the scroll bar or menu could be moved to the left side of the screen? I am using a Note 4 (2560×1440, and the same issue in landscape), running Lollipop (CM 12).

Also, occasionally, the ellipsis will turn from the normal grey to white and stay that way until bubbleupnp is restarted, effectively making them invisible on the white background of most pages. I haven't been able to find a scenario that reproduces the issue, but I have noticed it present a few times in the past (also on CM12).

I changed the media navigation and that didn't solve the problem. It did expand the music folders I can see. I'm starting to wonder if this is a Samsung problem. I have a G2, Moto x, and a Moto g and they all display properly. My Note 3 and 4, Tab s 10.5, and a new GS6 they do not display properly. I do recall having the issue after an app update but not sure which one. It could have been around the time 5.0 was added but not sure. I say that because I thought it would resolve itself once I updated to 5.0 but it has not.
[Android Apps and Games] xpug:
I did have an issue with hitting the ellipsis when the scrollbar is displayed (the list would jump around), but as of 2.3.6, there is no problem - clicking on the scroll bar 'vertical line' triggers the ellipsis and doesn't alter the scroll position. To scroll to another point I have to touch and drag the orange scroll bar.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
This is definitely a Twonky problem not returning the correct browse tree only for some (browsing) devices. Maybe try to restart it.

Eventually clears the renderer (or receiver) list in Twonky's config to start from scratch.

In any case, BubbleUPnP only displays the list of folders that the server returns.
[Android Apps and Games] befaddled:
Hmm, I am on 2.3.6 as well, and the behavior appears to be the same for me as in previous versions. If the list has a scrollbar, tapping anywhere within the scrollbar's region (which overlaps about 45% of the menu's region) always jumps me to the relative position in the list (whether or not the scrollbar has self-hidden). The amount of overlap doesn't concern me greatly, as I'm able to adjust for it.

Last Renderer?

Hi, I have the option set to show the last renderer used. However, sometimes when I open BubbleUPnP, it picks a renderer (Sonos) that I have chosen to hide in the Devices tab. Sometimes it does this for library too. If I have certain libraries or renderers hidden, why would it display in the main menu as selection options?

If so some reason my renderer and/or library is offline shouldnt the menu be blank?

I recently installed the server to my NAS and yesterday bought the license to the Android app - great work!

However, I have a problem which makes me feel stupid: how do I bookmark a folder?? In other words, when I have opened a certain folder in NAS, how to make a shortcut?

Btw, the server has very good documentation, but is there a help for the app as well?
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
To bookmark a folder, in the Library tab, tap the 3-dot menu of the folder you want to bookmark and select 'Bookmark'. Then

the bookmarked folder will be in either the "Albums" or "Folders" root folders (in the Bookmarks section).

There's no extensive doc for the app but some info in Settings > About/Help > Tips.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Yes there's this potential issue with the scroll bar on top of the 3 dots menu. The only way to avoid this would be to have the scrollbar not overlap, but at the expense of loosing width to display metadata (Google Music does this).
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Please send me a log file. See first post of this topic for instructions

I know about this issue but have no clue why it happens. It seems to happen randomly. I have no idea how to even start debugging it.

Are you on Lollipop 5.0.x or 5.1 ?
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Thanks. The log shows the failure. I will investigate.
[Android Apps and Games] torput:
Thanks, I wonder if there is a bug in the app?

- Open hamburger menu

- Click NAS

- Click "Music"

- Click "By Folder"

- One folder is shown, I click the three dot menu next to the folder -> bookmark -> "Added to bookmarks"

- Open hamburger menu -> Bookmarks -> Folder: an empty window is shown.

I have version 2.3.6.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
I cannot reproduce this.

"Albums" and "Folder" bookmark folders will display the bookmarks associated to the current Library. Or in other terms, each library has its own bookmarks.

So make sure that when you enter one of the bookmarks folder, the correct Library is active.

Exception: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError thrown from the UncaughtExceptionHandler in thread "main"

After some search I figured that the problem was due to my torrent client (ktorrent) which listens too on port 1900 udp (upnp port). I closed it for a bit and bubbleupnp server started normally.

It doesn't always cause this problem and the error message makes it difficult to debug.

Just thought it would useful to know since there were other people with the same issue earlier on the thread. :)
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Looks like ktorrent doesn't use port 1900 (used for SSDP device discovery) then. Multiple program can use port 1900 if one

of them doesn't use it improperly. I suggest you report this issue to ktorrent.

I still do not understand why you would have an java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError Exception in BubbleUPnP Server.

I would expect an error when binding to port 1900 instead...
[Android Apps and Games] mrsaccess:
I think the problem is more complicated. Ktorrent does use 1900 for SSDP device discovery. Other programs that use this port (btsync, minidlna, serviio, etc) don't have any problems using it concurrently with ktorrent and even bubbleupnp server's problem happened only once.

With docker I tried many different distros (centos 6.5, ubuntu 14.04, fedora 21) and I always got the same error when using the host's network (thus the same network stack as ktorrent). I tried that because a google search suggested that the problem may rely in my java installation.

I can't help much with debugging and I don't think it is an important issue anyway since it is so rare. I would guess though that it is a problem that happens right after bidding the port.

Hi I've recently purchased your app. I have a galaxy tab 2 and a HTC one m8 that I'm currently running the app on. Both devices will pick up my dlna server but on my HTC it will only show me my music and not my videos while my tablet will display and play everything. My phone supports the video format they are all in (mp4) I just can't understand why they won't appear. Thanks for the help. I love the app otherwise!
[Android Apps and Games] befaddled:
I experimented some with the bubbleupnp server config and may have resolved the issue. I've had "Max audio bitrate" under foobar2000 remote access set to 192kbps (lossless only) for many months, including through a few bubbleupnp server version upgrades, and have observed the issue for at least the past couple of months (when I first tried the download feature). I also have the Android app set to transcode to 192kbps on download. Today, I changed the server setting to "None" and download from the app started working again. I changed it back to 192kbps and it still works, including after restarting the server.

Unfortunately, the server logs rolled over during startup, so I can't provide bubbleupnp server logging from when it was failing. I can say that, when it was failing, the server would start an instance of ffmpeg that would close after a few seconds. Now that's it's downloading successfully, the ffmpeg instance runs for a more reasonable length of time. Perhaps an invalid value was present in my server config and was causing ffmpeg to abort. If the issue recurs, I will try to capture server logs.

In case it's of use, attached is the Android log file from testing while the issue was occurring. I attempt to download 2 files, the first gets transcoded from flac source and fails (I see Content-Length: 0), and the second is an mp3 source and succeeds.

I'm on 5.0.2. I'm using the base theme, colors, etc that come with CM12 builds (if that differs from Google's).

If you use Twonky as a media server (or one of its variant running on NAS), it is serving different browse trees to each device for some reason. Look a few posts up for a possible fix.
[Android Apps and Games] Shadowwrath5:
Appreciate the reply. Unfortunately I'm using a Seagate central nas until I get my freenas set up. I believe it runs a version of twonky but it's not something Seagate is just giving the options to configure it out.

If anyone knows how to get to the twonky configuration it would be great to know but sense it's working on my tablet I can live with that for now till my freenas is up and running. Thanks again!
