When accessing tapatalk I get a message that the API has expired and
needs to be updated by the admin of slimdevices forum. Thanks.


Do you still get the message?

Re: [slim] [ANNOUNCE] Music-Playback now on ANDROID! SqueezePlayer released to the market ...

2013-06-25 Thread soundcheck

Hi there.

I haven't read the whole thread. Please apologize if below remarks are
kind of redundant.

I've been trying squeezeplayer on my Minix NEO X5. and Android 4.1.1

Some comments:

* It seems that squeezplayer was never intended to work with Android
devices that come with wired ethernet . All network options refer to
wireless only.

* The sound quality is rather aweful. 

I'm running Toslink out for the time being. Even my SB Duet over
Toslink sounds ten times better.
I'm wondering if squeezeplayer passes the soundsystem by. I doubt it.
Volume at 100% is e.g. lower than my SB Duet Toslink.  
If SP is tight to the restrictions (Android mixer etc)  that you'll
find on many flavors of Android devices, this could mean serious
degradation.
Android is not known for good audio quality -- at least without
putting some effort into it. 
Afaik Android ( at least some flavors)  is limiting the maximum
volume etc. I'm not sure what it does with sample rates etc.


Is there an option to use e.g. audio device with direct hardware
access like hw:0,0 on Linux to avoid e.g. plughw:0,0 and system mixer
??
Afaik some better sounding apps seem to handle this stuff on their
own.

Perhaps somebody has an idea how to do some quick Android audio
tuning. Otherwise I'm gonna install a Linux with squeezelite on that
device. 


Cheers

 SqueezePlayer works fine on Intel devices (even Mips devices). There are
 already Android devices out there running on i86.
 Revue is special, as it runs a heavily modified version of Android,
 which does not support the Android NDK.

Oh, OK.  That clears that up!!!  Thanks!

So, in the future I shouldn't shy away from an Intel based andriod
device for fear of things like squeezeplayer not working.

 Seems pure might like to update their UK retailers, as most claim FLAC
 support:

 http://www.audioaffair.co.uk/PURE-Jongo-S3-Wireless-Speaker-with-Bluetooth/product_6836


Yes I agree they need to speak with them as for the most part the specs
from amazon are the same for the same device but the pure site now does
not show FLAC.  That is why I contacted their support guys as I was sure
I saw it somewhere in some documentation.  Here is what Pure has
listed.

Model Jongo S340B

Wireless 802.11b and 802.11g supported with WEP and WPA/WPA2. A2DP
Bluetooth support via supplied USB dongle.

Codec support Includes WMA (Standard V9), AAC, MP3, MP2

There is only one warning when you start the program, that wireless
opposed to 3G is preferred an can be turned on automatically.
This warning can be turned off in the settings.

You answered your question yourself.
The 'AudioTrack' API supports 48kHz, 16Bit maximum resolution.
Everything else must be downsampled.
There is no direct hardware access on Android.
