Well there's hundreds of different software packages to choose from it 
seems according to the article.


I'm just getting started myself, just placed an order for one of the 
realtek sticks mentioned in the article so I'll be taking it from there.

Doubletwist Music Player And So Much More

2016-04-06 Thread Dane Trethowan

Hi!

Has anyone had a look at this incredible App.

I've downloaded the basic version and - for the most part - the 
interface is nicely accessible.


I've also purchased the Pro version which allows Airplay and DLNA 
streaming of just about anything from your Android device.


Yes, some buttons will require some labeling for Google Talkback but 
there aren't all that many and I'll probably be able to work them out 
myself.

And pray that there's intelligent life somewhere out in space cause 
there's bugger-all down here on earth.

Yes, a nice combination and I've done that myself.

Airfoil Speakers is free for those paid users of Airfoil.

To put it into perspective - and you'll see this on the Airfoil page - Airfoil 
Speakers transfer your Android device into a speaker so you can plug it into 
your Headphones, into a dock or whatever and have your audio streamed in 
Lossless quality sound to the device from your Windows PC or Mac using Airfoil.

I use something called Allcast here which streams to Apple TV and DLNA devices 
but I don't think it handles AirPlay directly and I really must find an App 
that does handle Airplay myself so I'll take a look around later on and let the 
list know what I find.
