Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] What are you using for Android?

2021-03-10 Thread thniels


We use Material Skin for everything and the APK on Android. Not only
does Material Skin have the exact amount of features we need, but it is
also a pleasure to look at. Additionally, we have AirBubble (a very old
app from BubbleSoft) running in the background on our phones so that we
can stream to the phone (for headphones) via Airplay Bridge. Having just
one controller across all platforms is good for motor memory :-).

No, just the same things you would control when using for example the
native Spotify app on android.

In order to control Bluetooth headphones on Android you need a player (I
use either SBplayer or Squeeze Player), and then a controller such as
SqueezeCtrl or Orange Squeeze. The latter enable the Bluetooth control.
Then, if you prefer, fire up Material to control everything and leave
SqueezeCtrl/Orange Squeeze running in the background. It sounds a bit of
a palava but works ok!

I use both SBplayer and Squeeze Player but usually SBplayer as it ties

I found a similar solution: I first tried uninstalling Orange Squeeze
and keeping Squeeze Player hoping it would let me control Material apk
from my bluetooth headphones, but no, it didn't work. Then I installed
Orange Squeeze once again. And if I start Orange (which also starts
Squeeze Player), and then starts Material apk, I can  control it with my
headphones. 

It's obviously not as seamless as just starting Orange Squeeze and press
play. But if one wants to use Material and still be able to control it
via bluetooth then it's a workable solution.

I've never noticed that full metadata isn't there, so I suppose it

And there's nothing else I'm missing. But, I'd still prefer it if I
