I don't think BubbleUPnP on my mobile device will access those. I think I need to install a BubbleUPnP server on my network somewhere - and I'm looking for playback from desktop as well. Yes, to stream your own audio files the requirement would be for a UPnP/DLNA media server, but despite its name the BubbleUPnP Server helper application is not one of those: https://www.bubblesoftapps.com/bubbleupnpserver2/docs/features_and_requirements.html#requirements Quote BUBBLEUPNP SERVER IS NOT AN UPNP/DLNA MEDIA SERVER: IT DOES NOT INDEX YOUR MEDIA FILES. BubbleUPnP Server is a collection of functions to help enhance and/or correct problems with UPnP & Chromecast streaming. For an actual UPnP/DLNA media server, try installing & configuring MinimServer or Asset UPnP/DLNA instead We are far more united and have far more in common with each other than things that divide us. -- Jo Cox Link to comment
Cebolla Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Yes, but I wouldn't recommend it if that's all JRiver would be purchased for, given that JRiver's main (and unrelated) function is that of a music file player. BTW, JRiver actually allows you to configure more than one UPnP/DLNA media server, giving you the option of each UPnP/DLNA media server having a different transcoding mechanism applied to the same JRiver audio file library. For example, one JRiver UPnP/DLNA media server could be configured to provide the audio files to be streamed exactly as they are (ie, with no transcoding), another to upsample the files to 24bit/192kHz and then streamed as raw LPCM, a third to provide DSD files to be streamed as DoP in a WAV container, etc. We are far more united and have far more in common with each other than things that divide us. -- Jo Cox Link to comment
