It's a Western Digital MyCloud NAS drive. It's using the default WD DLNA Media Server (v7.2.9-13). I only use the NAS drive for music delivered to two Bose SoundTouch speakers, both with a Chromecast Audio. I have Replay Gain switched on. Will I benefit from installing the BubbleUPnP Server on the NAS drive? Any setup suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Love your work! ?

It's an embedded version of Twonky. Twonky notoriously sends thumbnails for full album art by default. This can easily be changed in its desktop/standalone NAS version,

but might be more difficult on the WD.

Look at this document for info (paragraph: How can I get Twonky to provide full size artwork to clients, rather than crude thumbnails?):

Hello [MENTION=3373153]bubbleguuum[/MENTION],

Thanks for your work (this, the server and foo_upnp).

I'd like to see two improvement though:

- would it be possible to cache wav/lossless (so far I've been able to cache only transcoded mp3)?

- instead of the hash, can the cached track have a more humanfriendly name? (For example: "track number - trackname_bitrate.ext"). Others players like poweramp stumble on the tracks.

There is also a lot of work to do on the ergonomics (the main reason I use poweramp on offline music) but I'm fairly happy of the current state of your ecosystem. :)

I just purchased the BubbleUPnP licence but it's being completely ignored. I've tried Settings | Exit, I've tried uninstalling both the licence and the app and reinstalling. I've cleared cache and deleted tmp files from the SD card. After all that the restrictions of the trial version are there and the Buy Licence option is still enabled.

The device is a cheap LY-F1 running a "4.0.3 IML74K 0.6.1 Seby-mod". It reports itself as a "DROID 2 GLOBAL" and has worked happily with other apps I've purchased.

I have another device where the licence *does* work, an HTC Desire. Sadly it's not the device I wanted the app for.

Does anyone know a reason for the licence not working on this device?

[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:

When I stream music from my phone to my TV I cannot seek, I get error transition not available 701. Also the play time on both phone and TV does not change, stays at 0 seconds.

I wouldn't have reported this if I didn't tried out upnplay from the market. I can seek and I get the playing time.

Video is working without seek also but the play time is ok this time.

It would be an interesting feature to create open home renderers resp. store the playlists of renderers created in bubble upnp server on one connected android devices. It doesn’t have to be the whole server. With this possibility you can switch of the computer with bubble server and only use the android app on different devices.
[Android Apps and Games] winxi:
hi bubbleguuum,

i tried MinimServer, which seems to be a promising audio server with great performance. unfortunately, it hasn't implemented AVTransport Service. with bubbleupnp it works fine, but when it comes down to both my sony hardware renderers, MinimServer doesn't even show up in the menus of the renderers. thus, i tried proxying MinimServer with bubbleupnp server. as a result, the proxy server shows up at the renderers menus and i can stream music from MinimServer to my bluray system. however, when using bubbleupnp as control point (stream from MinimServer proxy to renderer), i doesn't work and i get these Action SetAVTransportURI failed warnings.

my question is, if bubbleupnp server proxying is meant to compensate for this shortcoming of AVTransport Service not being available at the server-side, or if this is not possible in principle.

thanks a lot, winxi

Hi,

Just a quick question. Is there a reason why some AVI files will play and some wont when sending to a renderer from my media server?

These files also play fine when using mxplayer etc.

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] Snowknight26:
Shouldn't the profile 'BubbleUPnP' take precedence over the default profile?

Also, would it be possible for BubbleUPnP to give file sizes for transcoded content? Given that the length and bitrate are known, simple multiplication would work and would prevent this issue:

(Note that the files with missing sizes are transcoded from FLAC -> MP3.)

Lastly, the date modified field isn't correct (and strangely changes based on file):

(Note the discrepancy in the two highlighted files.)
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
I answered your question in the related MinimServer thread:

http://forum.minimserver.com/showthread.php?tid=102&pid=497#pid497

short answer: it is not related to minimserver implementing the AVTransport service (which is a service implemented only by UPnP renderers).
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:

- I'll see if I can add caching of lossless. It's currently limited to mp3 because at the time this feature was introduced, storage was much scarce than today and lossless can fill it pretty quick

- friendly name: I'll look into it but no promise. Although, IIRC transcoded tracks have full tags so Poweramp should be at least able to catalog tracks using tags (rather than filesystem browsing).

For point two, I may have a problem then. Even in bubbleupnp some tracks have no metadata (see attached capture).

I recently upgraded to a Pixel 2XL. I use Bubble to cast from a Serviio server to my Samsung D series TV DLNA. Ever since switching phones, while casting, the "A device is connected to the TV" message appears every 10 minutes or so where it used to only appear when I initiated the cast. It's like Bubble is dropping out of memory or something, but I have it excluded from battery optimizations. Is there something about Android 8.1 that Bubble is not playing well with? Is there a "force in memory" setting I can try? It's annoying, but it doesn't drop the stream...

I found a discrepancy between cache and download behavior.

Context: foobar library through internet. I browse by album but also by folder when I'd like to add whole artist to playlist.

Cache -> albums are cached in my cache folder, in it's root (`cache/album_name/*.mp3` and `cache/album_name/folder.jpg`) for both browsing. And that's perfect

Download -> they aren't in the root folder but in subfolder depending of the browsing method (i.e. `download/album/album_name/*.mp3` and `downloader/folder/album_name/*.mp3`).

Is it possible set the download behavior as the cache behavior (or be able to set the option)?

Also, no folder.jpg is generated/downloaded when I download through folder.

Sorry for all these feedback. I'm willing to help however possible.

Find attached a small video with test case, the same album through cache / download from Albums / download from Folders.

DSF(DSD) file's tags not support?

I set Neurtron as renderer of BubbleUPnP DLNA on Android device and playback music.

When playback DSF(DSD) file through the folder, only title will be displayed on the BubbleUPnP DLNA playback screen.

BubbleUPnP DLNA does not support to tags (artist, composer, genre, album art ... etc.) of DSF file?

Could you support to tags of DSF file?

I have confirmed these tags are correctly written in the DSF file by qoobar application.

Dunno if it's the same situation but I have a ChromeCast v2 for a month or so and it disappears randomly from my wireless home network. I can bring it back restarting router, restarting ChromeCast or changing wireless channels.

I did a lot of homework last days and this is an old problem with ChromeCast and some routers so it has nothing to do with Bubble.

It's not something you can install yourself. The problem is likely the download failing due to a TLS (https) issue on your device,

[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
[MENTION=8254262]taimei[/MENTION]

I suppose the DSF is stored on your Android device and you browse to it in BubbleUPnP using the 'Internal Storage' folder

in the Library tab? Browsing this way (using the filesystem) does not extract tags for performance reason. Although I suppose it maybe could be done only

when the track is played, but no promise.
[Android Apps and Games] taimei:
[MENTION=3373153]bubbleguuum[/MENTION]

Yes, That's right.

When extracting tags from DSF file, does it require CPU power more than extracting from Flac file etc?

If ignore the performance problem, is it possible to extract tags from DSF file technically?

If that is possible, could you please add tags extraction function from DSF file as option setting?

The default of that function is off, and if it turns on and there is a performance problem, user have to do is turn off setting.

Please tell me your opinion on this proposal.

Although BubbleUPnP is a very wonderful application, I think that it is insufficient as a modern application about the absence of tags extraction function from the DSF file.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
[MENTION=2101224]el_smurfo[/MENTION]

OK. Difficult to tell what is causing the TV to display this message. Maybe you can send me a log file playing something to your TV until it displays this message. See first post of this topic for logging instructions.

Can you send me (bubbleguuum@free.fr or Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive download) one of these tracks that has no tags in your screenshot where title is hash ?

I suppose the original track (on the foobar2000 side) do have tags ?

I don't really recommend to use foo_upnp these days as it is really old. Maybe you could look into using MimimServer or Asset UPnP which are both excellent and maintained.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
[MENTION=6007452]whinette[/MENTION]

I'll see if i can implement album art download when downloading a folder. Currently it only works when the parent container of a track is explicitely a music album and this is not the case for generic folders (which could contain anything, not necessarily an album) and the app must do extra work to "guess" if the folder holds an album.

Same things for downloads: if a folder is inferred to be an album, it should be downloaded in the "Albums" download folder rather than the "Folders" folder.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
It's about similar.

Well, when browsing in the Library tab by filesystem (eg "Internal Storage"), BubbleUPnP will extract tags in a folder if it infers it contains a music album (needs to contain only tracks and titles starting with track numbers). But it currently only do this for Android supported file formats (which various forms of DSD are not). I will look to extend it to these unsupported formats but no promise.

I will also look into extracting missing tags at playback time, so you'd see at least metadata when you play the track.
[Android Apps and Games] taimei:
[MENTION=3373153]bubbleguuum[/MENTION]

Thank you very much. :)

It is enough for me if tags are extracted only for the track being playback.

[MENTION=3373153]bubbleguuum[/MENTION] I've sent you a dropbox link with one album with this problem (it was track 2 iirc). The tags are indeed present on foobar and can see them when I browse through upnp.

2nd Gen.

As I said this is the first movie with this problem. Others are perfect fine with GPU transcode. Look below for an example.

I guess that it's something about codec. HEVC looks green on GPU transcoding but AVC it's fine.

I even change my video driver with lates but bo luck.

Anyway it's not a (big) problem, it works with GPU unticked. :)

Hi

I am not sure how "continue playback here" designed to be work but my expectation as a user is that it resumes where it is left of on the other device. At the moment, when I choose continue playback here, it just starts the movie from the start, there is no resuming not even close.

It is a bit pointless to me if you will, however maybe it is my setup that is the issue.

This is the rough setup.

Youtube <-- Serviio <-- Bubbleupnp server --> Bubbleupnp App --> Kodi(Open home)

Basically I have some youtube channel subscriptions in Serviio. Not sure if the open home thing makes a difference or not.
[Android Apps and Games] Snowknight26:
I can't tell if this is what caused it, but since the cache folder location changed, Google Play Music no longer finds any of the music that BubbleUPnP caches.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
[MENTION=4532393]Snowknight26[/MENTION]

The only data that is cached for Google Music during a Sync is metadata (tracks are never cached).

The location (folder) of this metadata has indeed changed and should have been moved to the proper location on app update.

What happens when you go the the Google Music folder ? Can you do a Sync or does it fail ?
[Android Apps and Games] Snowknight26:
I'm not entirely sure what you mean by sync, nor "tracks are never cached".

Typically when playing music via BubbleUPnP (more specifically, foobar2000 -> BubbleUPnP Server -> BubbleUPnP), BubbleUPnP caches a local copy of the music to /sdcard/android/data/<package>/cache/media/. If you open Google Play Music after a track has been cached, I can see that music appear in the media library. After the update, Google Play Music does not recognize that there is any music on my phone despite having ~1GB of cached music in that directory.

Even going to Settings -> Internet access with BubbleUPnP Server and unchecking/checking Add to Android Library doesn't fix it.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
[MENTION=4532393]Snowknight26[/MENTION]

My mistake, I thought you where talking about playing Google Music in BubbleUPnP, something else entirely

This is an oversight, as music stored in app's private folders (/android/data/<package>/*) seems to be discarded by the Android media scanner hence

not appearing in any music player (Google Music here) accessing the Android music database.

Hopefully you can fix it this way:

Using your favorite file manager app, move folder /sdcard/android/data/<package>/cache/media/ in some public folder, for example /sdcard/Music/BubbleUPnP.

After this you'll have folder /sdcard/Music/BubbleUPnP/media. Then in BubbleUPnP, use 'Settings > Internet access with BubbleUPnP Server > Cache folder'

to point to the new location (/sdcard/Music/BubbleUPnP/media) to write new cached data there and make use of it. The new location should be scanned by Android automatically (it can take a while if its big) and tracks/albums listed in Google Music. If it isn't, reboot your Android device and wait for a while.

I will fix that oversight in the next update, reverting to a public location for this cache.
