Hi,

I have been trying to get streaming to work with my hardware renderers,
with only very limited success.

I installed version 0.19.1.0 on my 32 bit laptop running xubuntu 12.04.
 I've configured it as per https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/Rygel/Pulseaudio ,
with just the mpeg flavour using upnp.monitor, and started it successfully.
 Almost all the other options are turned off.

After some problems I installed version 1.0 of various gstreamer libraries
and finally got it to work on my mobile running BubbleUPnP.  So far so good.

However, what I actually want to use it for is streaming some websites to
my hi-fi. I have a Musical Fidelity M1 CLiC and a Marantz CR603.  Neither
of these will accept the wav (or any other) stream.  Using the CLiC, I get
3 of the following every time I try to select the stream:

(rygel:5916): Rygel-WARNING **: rygel-http-request.vala:100: Invalid seek
request

With version 0.20.1.1 I get 3 of:

(rygel:7873): Rygel-WARNING **: rygel-http-request.vala:105: Invalid seek
request

I tried

force-downgrade-for=KnOS/3.2

(the first part of the user-agent as far as I can tell - it is a little
confusing) but got no change.

I have also tried foobar2000 as a renderer for this stream, but it gets no
further than seeing Gst Launch as a server.  I have previously used
foobar2000 as a server using 'playback stream capture' (not a media
library)  to both my hardware renderers and that works, so the HiFi UPnP
does work in some cases.

Is this just another example of the failure of many hardware devices to get
anywhere near to the standard, or is the standard so weak that such
problems are inevitable?  Are there any other tricks I can try?

My linux skills are weak.  Given detailed instructions I can compile stuff,
but if it goes wrong I'm often lost.

Regards

Tim
