When you guys use upnp, kazoo etc, does that mean your system is just one computer, not server and end point?

In my configuration I have
Nuc8i3/Ubuntu 20.04 where MinimServer and Bubbleupnpserver are installed
2 raspberry pi4/4GB where GentooPlayer (MPD/Upmpdcli) is installed, one of them is for my headphones (Khadas Tone Board dac and Little Dot Mk II tube amp), the other is for a little desktop system

SOtM sms-200 Neo (for the main system)

Lumin app as control point

.... I have a huge music library and a raspberry is too slow to manage it

.... then one server and three endpoint

but I don't understand one thing where you set the quality of tidal streaming

If you use Bubbleupnpserver you set the streaming quality in the openhome renderer configuration in Bubbleupnpserver

if you don’t use Bubbleupnpserver you have to set the quality, and the login informations as well, in the upmpdcli configuration file

How is this possible

It happens because login is managed by Bubbleupnpserver, that’s to say if you login to Qobuz (or Tidal) using Lumin app you’re actually logging in through Bubbleupnpserver, then once you’re logged in it works with any app using Bubbleupnpserver

@antonellocaroli updated to 2.14 without any problem .... and with the GP logo embedded ! 😲👍

[stefano_mbp]

@antonellocaroli didn’t noticed the typo before ....

I'll put online version 2.15

On version 2.14 you added the GP icon that was a fine surprise but ... if I run GP in ram (mode 2 on rpi4, from usb) the icon disappears from the control point.

I suspect this is due to the path where the icon is stored as when I did myself the modification using the same path of the standard upmpdcli.conf  the icon visibility was not impacted running GP in ram.

Hope you can fix it in the next 2.15

Thank you

Can gentooplayer be used with jriver serving the files?

Yes! You need to enable MPD and Upmpdcli in GentooPlayer.

In JRiver enable under Media Network (Tools/Options) Dlna Server and Controller.

After this GentooPlayer will be shown in JRiver

[stefano_mbp]

@media-mogul You need to configure MPD-bitperfect then enable MPD and Upmpdcli

in Enable/Disable Software

[stefano_mbp]

You should find the name of your usb dac ...

[stefano_mbp]

@media-mogul In JRemote you should find it under zones ...

do not know anything about google home and never used Spotify connect ...

You need to install Minimwatch

Minimwatch lets you configure MinimServer from “remote” (i.e. another pc on your lan).

In the user guide you’ll find everything you need to know about MinimServer and how to configure it

@OPM if you main computer is a pc with Windows10 follow these instructions to enable ssh, it is needed to open a shell

if you are on Mac then open Terminal app located in Utilities and type

Are you sure about the IP address ? ... download Fing

https://www.fing.com/products

and look for the correct IP address  ... usually xxx.xxx.xxx.1 is the router address

[stefano_mbp]

@GMG according to this post

it seems there is a issue with Chord Qutest to play 768, it works fine up to 705.6

But what a horrible app. Can't believe a music player app can have such terrible functionality.

Could you elaborate your feelings about the Lumïn app? 
I’m using it since a couple of years and I do find that it is the best app compared to Linn, Kazoo, MConnect Player.

Maybe you are not using Minimserver with which Lumïn app do give its best … one feature I like more is the cross reference starting from Artists, Work, Composer, Genre, Conductor in the track details … while listening to a track you can find with just a tap all the albums related to the Artist or Conductor or Composer or different recordings of the same Composer’s Work … it’s just a matter of configure Minimserver ( … but your tracks must be fully tagged … not a job for lazy people .. 😉)

[stefano_mbp]

@Powermanyou should read carefully the user manual

Thank you, me too. Because I am ditching the desktop and setting up a real 2 ch downstairs. I can take my laptop to stream, but the phone would be super easy. I do listen a lot to my files and pick one and play is pretty darn simple.

Maybe you just need to properly setup the app, check the single/double tap settings. Here is the user guide https://luminmusic.com/manual/app-introduction.html

Minimserver, bubleup, android

… bubleup (?) … are you meaning Bubbleupnpserver or what else?

If it is Bubbleupnpserver can you post the OpenHome configuration page screenshot for your device?
