[slim] Logitech Squeezebox controller app stopped working on Xperia Z

2015-11-07 Thread Steinar Bang
Earlier this year, the Logitech Squeezebox app stopped working, first on my Sony Xperia Z phone, and sometime later it stopped working on my Xperia Z tablet. The app just displays "Free you music" and then nothing more happens. I suspect that this was caused by system upgrades on the devices.

Undoing the Android update is not wise. It was updated to fix a security flaw (which you just removed). Update your Android's to the latest release then use one of several third party Android control apps for SqueezeBox.

I would simply want to use a Chromecast Audio as a squeezebox player. The casting means nothing to me, not interested. But if I could use SqueezeToUPNP to a Chromecast Audio the same as I would with a UPNP device to play audio as if it were a SqueezeBox, then it might be useful to me.
