Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] UPnP/DLNA Media Interface vs UPnP Media Bridge plugins (Newbie...be gentle!)
Ok...now I'm starting to understand why people just do Roon, Sonos or Airplay. This gets aggravating quickly. I've got the UPnP Bridge installed, am trying to read and understand the User Guide to get things configured, but I'm getting stuck. 1. I'd like the volume to be controlled by the Onkyo, not LMS. Ideally, I'd like a fixed volume out of LMS, controllable at the Onkyo. If not possible, I'd at least like the two to accurately reflect the same volume. As it stands, the synch between the two is off. For example, LMS Volume says "30", Onkyo says "18". They're constantly fighting with each other. Which setting and where can accomplish this? 2. I hit play on a song in LMS, song appears to start playing, not audible in the Onkyo. If I move the playhead to the middle of the song, 3-4 seconds later it becomes audible in the Onkyo. The at the end of the song, the next track doesn't play. It appears "stuck" at the end of the current track. Any setting or solution to that? 3. What is the function of the Power Button in LMS where the tracks play? I accidentally hit that button in the middle of a track and my Onkyo's volume immediately pinned to 100. Guessing that should always be "On"? Screenshots of my settings are below. Any suggestions as to changes are welcome. 367303673136732 +---+ |Filename: SS 3.png | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=36732| +---+ RoyalScam's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=72440 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=115709 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

I actually use Material on an iOS device to control a playing instance of iPeng on the same device. Its largely because of the Music & Artist Info plugin integration via Material. I use the iOS device - iPhone or iPad - with an Audioquest Dragonfly DAC which will get me 24/96 and a decent pair of B headphones. Returning to the Onkyo. Try Phillipes UpnpBridge but note all the defaults before you start tweaking things. It can be made to work properly but I suspect you may need to do some tweaking. Also dont run the interface plugin at the same time. Upnp calls to it from rogue devices can flood your network. Upnp/dlna is not a very standardised protocol and rogue devices ie ones that dont have a very good implementation are quite common. Early smart TVs for example.

Yeah, my Onkyo is the TX-8160, so no Chromecast unfortunately, just DLNA or Airplay. It would've been a no-brainer for anything above 16/44.1, and I suppose I could get a used/leftover Chromecast Audio to connect to it, but I'd rather stay with just the Onkyo.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] WMA playback not working
The simplistic answer would be to install PlayWMA plugin and the required ffmpeg (i.e. one that work on your OS and has WMA libraries built in). However it would be better to get more info on your setup to assess if it would really solve your problem (e.g. OS, LMS version, Player types) Examples IF LMS is Windows - then all WMA support is in place. So problem is LMS setup. All H/W SB players have WMA decoders built - however I do not know about new Community Firmware for Touch If problem is with an internet radio station - it is likely the URL is defunct as WMA has been withdrawn from most stations. It is possible to install WMA decoder libraries for Squeezelite players on Linux OS - not sure about MacOS or Squeezelite-X bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=115717 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
