Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Playing Music from Android Device (e.g. Samsung Galaxy SIII, Note II)

2014-04-04 Thread haz

Streaming to my 3 Squeezebox Radios and Touches via LMS and (Bubble)UPNP
ist no problem at all- and works like a charme as long as I am streaming
lets say mp3 and wav files from my rooted HTC one.
I heard about the Xposed BubbleUPNP Module (1.8.4) which I installed on
my htc one but cannot make it work with the LMS/Squeezeboxes. I am
getting an errror (Illegal mime type, code 714) when I am starting the
audio cast. 
Is there anyone here who has got some knowledge what the reason could be
and/or how to make it work.

Background: my idea was as follows. I am with spotify. In our household
there are a few users who all use one account. Due to the restrictions
it is only possible to listen to one music stream. It is possible though
to download a playlist to the android device and then turn it into
offline mode. These playlists can then be played and listened to on the
device. When I then stream this to another Squeezebox box I could listen
two two different playlistes using the lms (one directly though triodes
plugin, the other one through the BubbleUpnPs Xposed module).

That would be great! Thank you! Also a big Thanks to gadus!


What I found out in the meantime is that with BubbleUPnP for Android and
http://www.avm.de/de/Produkte/FRITZ_WLAN/FRITZ_WLAN_Repeater_NG/index.php
which has a UPnP-renderer feature it should be possible to play music.
The BubbleUPnP app has the built in feature to add an equalizer app to
it. I'll give it a shot next week, as soon as I have the Note II

The perfect solution wood be a stand alone LMS for android
Would It be possible to have a Logitech Media Server for android ??

Here are a view projects that look really good
Its a Logitech Media Server for Raspberry Pi and Synology NAS:

- http://www.squeezeplug.de/
- http://www.synology-forum.nl/viewtopic.php?f=82&t=2102

Maybe an android developer could turn this into a LMS for droid 
So many android devices these days
I personally would have a use for this on my android UG802 HDMI stick
running 24/7 with USB HDD attached to it
But I can imagine a whole lot off possibilities
Turn your old android phone Into a Logitech Media Server and you have a
power efficient music server

The Samsung android phones/tablets such as those you mention generally
have AllShare installed. These are UPNP/DLNA servers which should be
able to share music from your phone.  

I think you should be able to play music from these AllShare but can't
remember how.  Will check this weekend and get back to you.

There are three possibilities that I can see:

1) LMS on the android device.  I don't think this exists, but it's not
technically impossible.
2) upnp server on the android device, local LMS server with upnp client.
This probably exists and could be made to work after a fashion.
3) samba server on android and local LMS which is pointed to the samba
share.


I think there might be a simpler, though somewhat limited solution: build  
a basic SB controller app (or extend an existing one), let it browse local  
content through whatever method you have to browse music files, and expose  
those files through a built in web server. Once you've picked the file(s)  
to play submit the corresponding URLs to LMS. Obviously this would be  
limited to controlling the music through this very app, as other  
controllers can't browse that music. On the plus side you don't need to  
build a fully fledged LMS or UPnP server.


At least I'd think this should work :-).

Thank you very much for this detailed explanation! I'll give it a shot
and see if it works. 

If I get it to work, I'll explain exactly how I did it for anybody who
wants to try the same.

I think #3 is probably your best bet. I have seen a samba server app for
android (make SURE you get the samba SERVER app, not the samba CLIENT
app). You will need LMS running on another computer (you cannot easily
do this with the TinyLMS built into the Touch). Just set the LMS to look
at the samba share from the android device as it's source of music
files.  You will need to set the workgroup name on both the android
samba server and the computer LMS is running on to the same name. Then
LMS will scan the files and you can use any of the squeezebox system
control mechanisms for playing the music. 

Note: I have NOT done this so I can't give tips on specific pitfalls,
but it should work.

I'd like to know if there is a way to play music stored on an Android
device that is connected to the same wifi network as the Squeezebox
Touch.


This thought came to me only recently. I think it would technically be  
possible to add this to a SB controller app without too much hassle, but I  
haven't seen this possibility yet.

Hello, 

I'd like to know if there is a way to play music stored on an Android
device that is connected to the same wifi network as the Squeezebox
Touch. 

I'm happy with any solution. 

Thanks!
