Re: Airfoil Speakers For Android App

2015-06-01 Thread christopher hallsworth
Hi all

I like AIrfoil a lot and one day might try it using Apple TV to transmit the 
stream from my Mac running AIrfoil. Ah, so the white noise is mixed in with the 
stream then. The overlaid got a little confusing for me, meaning it will 
either modulate or somehow corrupt the stream so that it's garbled to say the 
least. For the benefit of the hard of hearing, is the white noise loud enough 
to be a motivation to rush to your device(s) and stop the stream quickly? Sorry 
if this may sound stupid, but in case time gets the best of me and the ten 
minutes has way, way past. I did pay for Airfoil 3 a while back, but I think 
will pay again to upgrade to 4, but not without trying it with Apple TV first. 
Anyway thanks for any responses on this.

 Airfoil Speakers is an App that receives streaming from a device running 
 Airfoil, this can be a Mac or a Windows machine.
 
 Airfoil hijacks an App on your computer or another audio source such as a 
 line-in, microphone, DVD playing, output from your web browser and so on, the 
 audio then is streamed to be received by an AirPlay device or - in this case 
 - Airfoil Speakers For Android.
 
 No setup is required, just install and launch the airfoil Speakers App which 
 is then ready to receive a stream from Airfoil, your device will pop up in 
 the list of devices that Airfoil can stream to.
 
 So what was unexpected about the Android version of Airfoil Speakers? Other 
 versions of the App I've used - for Mac, Windows and IOS - have allowed the 
 streaming of iTunes or any other device that can stream to an Airplay 
 compatible device or App to stream to Airfoil speakers, the version for 
 Android will only accept a stream from Airfoil itself, I'm curious to know 
 why and I've written to the developer so I hope I'll get an explanation.
 
 Anyway worth the $8 from Google Play, you can get a demo version to try, 
 after ten minutes you'll hear white noise mixed in with your received stream.
