Next l downloaded and installed "TuneBrowser". So l chose the Chromecast as the renderer and the selected track played through my TV (an interesting result but not quite the one I was hoping to achieve). Another renderer option in BubbleUPnP's list was the Chromecast attached to my TV. Futrher investigation revealed that is a generic error that is sent from a renderer to a control point when it cannot perform the requested action. I selected a track and hit 'play', the track name showed up on AR's display but l received the message "Action failed (code: 501)" from BubbleUPnP but no audio. I was able select AR as the renderer in BubbleUPnP, and MinimServer as my Library.
I started AR successfully on a recent build with Windows 10 (Home) intended to be a dedicated audio player. I downloaded Audiophile UPnP Renderer v2.3 (AR) and the Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable.
I have BubbleUPnP installed on my Android phone. How are you supposed to launch a player on Windows that will either see the UMS server or allow me to browse to the UMS server? Is there a web interface that is supposed to allow me to launch a player? It seems extremely unlikely that the Android version of the player is more sophisticated than the Windows version of the player.More detailed information: I have MinimServer 2 installed and running successfully as my UPnP server on a Synology NAS. This is probably obvious to everyone else, but. If I use VLC 3.0.0 and choose Open Media and browse to Network, the server isn't listed (nor are any other media devices), so there is no way to open the server. No files have been found in this remote library. If I choose Open Media Player in Network via File Explorer, when I right click on the UMS server, Windows Media Player opens but UMS doesn't show that there are any media files to play. Scan Folders doesn't seem to do anything other than announcing that a scan is in progress. When I click on the server, a browser is opened and I see 10.0.0.105:5001/console/index.html. On Windows 10 systems I see the "Hendrik's UMS" server listed as a media device in Network in the File Explorer. The behavior that I seeing on Windows is the following: I included the log You are being of help, thank you! I do not understand why I don't seem to be able to find the server when browsing with VLC and why I can't find any of the media files when I browse using Windows Media Player.Īny help would be greatly appreciated. I also can see the UMS if I browse with the Windows Media Player, but I can't find any of the files or folders in the server. I am able to see UMS in the File Explorer listed as a media device.
On the Windows 7 VLC however, the UMS does not come up as a Media device when I browse through the application. File playback appears to be fine on the Pixel. The player on Android seems to be able to find the UMS without a problem and navigate through the file folder structure. I am using VLC Media Player as the test player on the devices. I have been testing playback on Android (Google Pixel Android 7.1.1) and on a Windows 7 Home Edition which is my recording studio computer with the fancy audio interface and monitors. I am trying to playback files at the original quality without transcoding to a lossy format. I am trying to setup a library of FLAC files to play from various devices on my home network.
