Will BubbleUPnP support Motion Sense controls for media playback on newer Pixel Smartphones, especially with new gesture introduced by March 2020 update? Or do I miss something...?
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
[MENTION=5128593]dark0shark[/MENTION]

Does Motion Sense (had to Google it) work with other media/music player apps ?

If it generates standard media button events, it should work in BubbleUPnP (assuming the app is in the foreground).

I'm really missing information to understand your message:

- which images ? Are these photos, album art for music, covers fro videos, something else ?

- where are these images coming from (which Library) ?

- are you viewing these image on your Android device, or another device (TV) ?

=> please reexplain what you do exactly, what you see and what you expect, because otherwise I have really no idea
[Android Apps and Games] dark0shark:
Yes, works with Spotify. BubbleUPnP seems to be not sensible for those gestures. But to be frank, in this early release by Google it's not reliable enough for daily use, - just a gimmick.

Moodeaudio/Tidal /20 subnet issue?

Hi this app does exactly what I want it to do in most cases but I have an issue at work where I have a /20 ip4 subnet and my pixel will not see my moodeaudio raspberry as a renderer I tested it at home on /24 and I can use an android x86 VM on ethernet to connect to it (which I am using currently) but I would like it to connect with my mobile over wifi (tried 2.4 and 5.8 as well as different access points) is there an issue here or do I have a strange network problem I need to fix?

not available on Huawei devices

Hello,

I don't seem to find BubbleUPnP on the AppGallery...

How can I get it for my Huawei P30 phone, please? :fingers-crossed:
[Android Apps and Games] nift4:
Maybe download Amazon Appstore?

Though I'm not sure if it will run without Play Services...

That can only [MENTION=3373153]bubbleguuum[/MENTION] answer
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
[MENTION=10609501]silka_m[/MENTION]

It's not on Huawei AppGallery. No plan for it currently.

There is the Amazon version of BubbleUPnP that works on non-Google and Google devices. It requires:

- an Amazon account

- to install the Amazon app store app and keep it installed (open https://www.amazon.com/androidapp on your Android device to side load the Amazon app store APK)
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
Not sure what you are trying to do with "would like it to connect with my mobile over wifi" but, assuming you use a VPN, SSDP discovery generally does not work over VPNs (unless some very specific configuration) thus there is no way for BubbleUPnP to detect your moodeaudio.
[Android Apps and Games] PastagaCigales:
Good morning,

There seems to be an issue with the communication between BubbleUPnP and MX Player when the first one is used as a renderer: attempting to resume playing after pausing from the controler does not give the expected result, as the video remains paused, and after being exited, starts playing again. I don't know which is the app the problem comes from. Time progress reporting also become wrong.

To be honest, I don't usually use my phone as a renderer, but I was testing a program I am writing in Python allowing casting internet content to my TV such as YouTube full HD videos thanks to a remuxing server and control through browser and websocket (by the way, streaming content with separate video and audio sources is a feature that could be added to BubbleUPnP as it already embed a server and ffmpeg). I wanted to see how it would run with another renderer, and noticed this malfunction.

Thanks, and sorry for my poor english.
[Android Apps and Games] s4tch:
hey bubbleguuum, i have the same issue with a marantz mrc611: tracks repeat infinitely, despite repeat being off. track advancing simply doesn't work. can i create a log with tidal or a local track? i don't have a qobuz account and don't intend to create one, but i'll do if i have to.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
[MENTION=432086]s4tch[/MENTION]

Check with the remote of chassis buttons of your Marantz if it does not have a repeat toggle enabled operating independently.

And make sure 'Gapless Control' is disabled in the app as explain in the message you quoted.
[Android Apps and Games] s4tch:
repeat function wasn't enabled neither in bubbleupnp, nor in marantz's own settings. gapless control was off.

but! i restored the marantz to its factory defaults, and now track advancing works with tidal. so i have no clue what the issue was, but it's working now. i should have started with a factory reset i guess. :cyclops: thanks for the suggestion, have a nice weekend!
[Android Apps and Games] DarkErebos:
Awesome app, been using for quite some time now, I mainly use it to cast to my MiTv 4s since it supports a large variety of file formats and subtitles on the go that most apps on android don't do.

Wish there was an Android TV support tho, that would be awesome.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
[MENTION=7179901]DarkErebos[/MENTION]

Android TV is supported. It is just that BubbleUPnP is not listed on the Android TV Play Store.

But you can sideload APKs manually

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

I am using BubbleUPnP on Android TV and i get the problem when browsing Library content.

I have 3 external HDDs and name them as HDD_1T, HDD_250 and HDD_80. But only HDD_250 is recognized as "External SD Card" by BubbleUPnP Library. Both HDD_80 and HDD_1T are recognized as volume label and they don't show any content inside. I got error message when select them (see screenshots for more information).

All external HDDs are working properly with the apps Total Commander - file manager and Kodi.

Do you have any solution for my problem?

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
[MENTION=4737024]tranphu[/MENTION]

I will have a fix for this in the next app update. Also HDD_250 will be probably labeled.

Radios and Synology Audio Station

Hello,

Because local playlists are tedious to build for radio streams, I tried to use the radios provided by Audio station on Synology. While the radios playlists are visible and browseable in bubbleupnp, the streams don't play. Looking at the metadata, obviously the radio is decoded/encoded by audio station (and/or the media server) before being passed to bubbleupnp. I guess this messes up the whole thing ...

Sorry I can't attach a picture (probably because I am a newbie here), but the metadata says something like : [IP address of my NAS]:50002/transcoder/genericoder.cgi/id=radio.wav?radio=[URL of the radio.mp3]

Adding streams to bubbleupnp as local playlists does work perfectly, but it is a one-by-one affair, a bulk import feature would be nice (just a dumb list of streams that you could edit afterwards to give them meaningful names).

Thanks anyway for a great app ! That's my swiss-army knife for streaming (well, except radios ...).
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
[MENTION=6614171]jpib56[/MENTION]

If you wish you can send me a log file attempting to play a Syno radio (see first post for logging instructions).

Hello, I have been using the application for a few days on my mobile phone. Is there a way for BubbleUPnP to show the album cover as a folder icon?
[Android Apps and Games] tranphu:
On version 3.4.4 i can see and browse content in 3 external HDDs (HDD_80, HDD_250, HDD_1T). But in Music, Video, Images folders Library only show me content of HDD_250. The content of HDD_80 and HDD_1T is gone.

Please review this problem. Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
[MENTION=4737024]tranphu[/MENTION]

Nothing has changed concerning the handling of the Media Store (Music, Video, Images folders content).

Try to have the Android Media Store rebuilt doing these:

- go into Android Settings > Apps

- locate the system app named 'Media Storage' and clear its data. It might be hidden though

- reboot your Android TV, wait for a while for media to be reindexed

If it cannot be done this way, you can try with adb:

adb shell pm clear com.android.providers.media
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
[MENTION=10633027]jakepl[/MENTION]

It depends largely on the UPnP/DLNA Media Server (Library) to set this icon on folders. Which one are you using ?

Is there a way to stream Google assistant (app on my phone) via Bubble UPnP ?

Same question for a radio-app on my phone.
[Android Apps and Games] samnada:
BubbleUPnP keeps switching renderers during movie playback. I have about 6 different renderers. I select one of my Chromecasts, start playing a movie, after a while decide to pause it, and the lock screen is showing the triangle Play icon instead of the double bar Pause icon. The movie is still playing fine, but if I login and check the renderer list it's auto switched to a different renderer. I can select the one that's playing and pause it, but all that switching is a hassle if all I want to do is pause. And I can't pause from the lock screen so have to login, etc. etc.

You need a log?

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] nift4:
Audio Cast if you're rooted
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
[MENTION=2857034]samnada[/MENTION]

Does it switch to the Local Renderer ? That would happen if BubbleUPnP receives from Google Play Services a notification that the Chromecast has disappeared from the network which can

sometimes happen even if it has not disappeared.

Make sure to do these:

- disable Android Doze for BubbleUPnP and the Google Home app:

https://android.gadgethacks.com/how...doze-app-standby-for-individual-apps-0168960/

- apply instructions for your Android device model:

https://dontkillmyapp.com/

If the problem persists, let me know.
[Android Apps and Games] samnada:
1. It does not switch to the local renderer. It switches to my Samsung TV which is another renderer. As I mentioned when I notice the Play icon instead of Pause the movie playing on the Chromecast hasn't stopped or glitched in any way, so the Chromecast stays visible on the network without interruption as well as its connection to the server PC running Serviio.

2. BubbleUPnP is not in the list of battery optimized apps, and under the Advanced section for the app it says it's "not optimized". I did look at my Chromecast in Google Home and the setting "Let others control your cast media" was turned off. I turned it on but just did a test and still have the same problem.

I can send a log if that's the next step.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
[MENTION=2857034]samnada[/MENTION]

1. Do you have to have the Local Renderer disabled in 'More > gear icon > Local Renderer > Enable' ? If it is disabled, it would switch to the first

available renderer instead of the Local Renderer.

2. Make sure the Google Home app is also in the "not optimized" list

Do you ever have this issue if you force the screen to stay on ?

Yes you can send me a log file, logging until it switches from your Chromecast to your Samsung TV. See first post of this topic for logging instructions.

[Android Apps and Games] samnada:
1. Local Renderer was turned off, so that's not it.

2. Google Home was optimized. I changed it to "not optimized", ran a test and it still happens, so that wasn't it either.

3. I never leave the screen on as battery drain is high even with the screen off. The max I can set the screen on time to is 30 min. I've done that and have left BubbleUPnP on the "Now playing" screen and it's not switching to another renderer. It's working as it should. So, does that tell you enough, or would it help to have a log file?

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
[MENTION=2857034]samnada[/MENTION]

That tells that (as expected) Google Play Services goes bananas when screen is off and notify BubbleUPnP that your Chromecast has disappeared from the network making it switch to your Samsung TV (since the

Local Renderer which is normally the fallback, is disabled). Likely caused by yet another clever battery saving measure.

Please send a log file (logging until renderer changes) so I can see if anything can be done about it.

Hi.

I'm wondering why it's still not possible to use the audiocast feature (that I payed for) when using the Amazon app store version of bubbleupnp?

Is this intentional? I don't have Google services on my phone and therefore I'm stuck with the Amazon version.

Any advice?

Thank you
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
[MENTION=6371412]JohnnyDvanC[/MENTION]

The reason is a technical difficulty. The Play Store version of the app and the Xposed module use the the same sharedUserId to be able to communicate.

The Play Store version has that sharedUserId since forever but not the Amazon Version. Adding it at this stage cause a problem: IIRC, the inability

for existing users having it installed to upgrade. Since there are very few Amazon version users, let alone wanting to use Audio Cast, I have not

put much thought into a solution (which is not trivial and probably require to not rely on sharedUserId at all).
[Android Apps and Games] JohnnyDvanC:
That means I'm out of luck? Is there any way to get the pro version without the Google playstore?

I'm willing to pay again, but I not through Google.

Thank you for the honest reply.

Why is this not supported? I bought this app along time ago. Media monkey supports playlist and advancing on local renderer. Do I just need to get that. I am confused what the issue with advancing to next video in playlist since it can see the video. Plus what's the point of the playlist if it doesn't advance to the next video.
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
[MENTION=1795879]Vortell[/MENTION]

Since BubbleUPnP use a third party video player app to play videos locally (MXPlayer, VLC, ....), there is no way (or at least not reliable)

for the app to determine when the end of current video has been reached to play the next one.

External renderers do not have this limitation in the sense they notify the end of playback of a video.
[Android Apps and Games] Vortell:
Thank you for explaining it. Maybe one day there will be a player that passes a simple times to indicate the playback it's done. I just assumed since the app has the time if the video it would be able to count down. Then what happens if the play back fails right. I know kokotime does it with online sources to external players. Not sure how it's done. So have other online to external players. Either way thanks for letting me know!

Hi bubbleguuum and all good here with repeat problem. My fault as I couldn't see the repeat button was active.

Please can I raise a new issue.

I have been bringing my RPi with IQAudio DAC hat and upmpdcli application into use because a Linn Sneaky had died. I have been having new troubles. Media is served by minimserver on NAS and control points are on Samsung S6.

I have found that I couldn't play music using BubbleUPnP although this has been fine previously.

I switched to BubbleDS and music plays fine but the radiostation urls I have in my media for selection using control point gave me an error I did not recognise, namely:-

Browser error

Reason

There was a problem completing operation.

Current state of service prevents invoking that action. Error reading response message. Can't transformmessage payload s.c.a.i.q.c: The argument value is invalid. Invalid number of input or output arguments in XML message, expected 1 but found 0..

Request: Android Auto Support.

It's been now over a year and a half since I inquired about this...

I'm sure there's plenty of interest by users of the BubbleUPnP app in being able to use it while on Android Auto, so dev's please reconsider adding support for it. I understand it's not easy and would take a lot of effort, but most media players nowadays support it, even some that have very basic functionality...

As mentioned previously, it would certainly be a very welcomed addition even as a payed add-on...
[Android Apps and Games] EPa:
Hi,

is BubbleUPnP able to play internet radio streams it finds in a. m3u playlist served by minimserver without the use of minimstreamer? (minimradio.com says minimstreamer is only required if the renderer is not able to play internet radio streams, I think BubbleUPnP is)

I set it up, it sees the playlist, it sees the entries, it shows that playback is starting (play button turns to pause button), but nothing more. No sound, no time advancing. After a while it shows playback stopped (pause button turns to play button).

The "show metadata" shows minimserver URLs, not the actual stream url.

The (radio stream) URLs are checked and valid (opened and playing normally on vlc, media player hc, and other programs on pc).

What gives?
[Android Apps and Games] bubbleguuum:
[MENTION=1622582]EPa[/MENTION]

The problem with m3u playlists exposed by MinimServer is that MinimServer does not indicate at browse time a proper mime-type for each radio. And BubbleUPnP absolutely needs to have a known mime-type

at browse time to play stuff.

Hopefully this can be fixed by indicating the nature of the stream (mp3,aac) in the m3u, for example

#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:-1,[;mp3] LOUNGE-RADIO.COM - swiss made
http://fr1.lounge-radio.com/lounge128.mp3

Notice the added [;mp3] before the title. That's the important part.

For this to work, you need MinimStreamer installed, although it will not do any transcoding here.

I've asked Simon about sending the proper mime-type without having to do this, but he declined for technical reasons.
