#Asset upnp no embedded art android(In some tests today, iPad appeared to handle it better than Android but therewas some inconsistency).Īlso, there are issue when fast forwarding within a track when Gapless to UPnP. You don't need an Arcam device and it does play gapless locally but stutters (between tracks) to UPnP (my CA-NP30). Īctually this is on Android too so you could try it / for consistency. I do use different UPnP Apps across Android/iPad (other the Panasonic Music Streaming when using my ALL devices). so you'll just have to try it on Oppo (prior to premium purchase of HiFi Cast - confirmed AU$3.99). I haven't seen UPnP device manufacturers advertising this feature/implementation. I also have a Cambridge Audio NP30 Streamer which does do gapless from HiFi Cast/UPnP. Which reminds me that the Panasonic ALL eco-system, as advised above, does not do gapless. Gapless UPnP via HiFi Cast works if the Renderer supports it. Snap - I also have an Android phone and an iPad (Air). For a few dollars it may be worth trying out the app. Interesting point you make about gapless/transcoding via the Android device. Haven't tried it as yet as it says gapless playback is only supported via Chromecast and Google Home devices. I have come across the Hi-Fi Cast app in the Google Play Store. Ideally I would like to have an app that I can use across both devices (just in case one device is being used by the kids). ![]() Thanks for the info! I have an Android phone and and iPad. #Asset upnp no embedded art codeThe latest version of the Media Controller App is about 5 years old now.Īctually contacted the local distributor/support for Oppo to see whether they would make the source code available so that other keen developers to continue to improve the app. Unfortunately with Oppo no longer making audio equipment, the associated app's are no longer being updated either. The Oppo Media Controller App is a good starting point but needs a bit more work to make it more user friendly. Bluesound Node 2i - currently $799 at Klapp AV. Yamaha WXC-50 - currently $375 at Todds HiFi.ģ. Note: Not (natively) gapless (I don't know if the ones below are - would expect 3. I stumbled across 2 instore closeout units (at separate times late 2017 / early 2018) - $50 each at Myer. They are discontinued or end-of-life (along eith most other multi-room bits in the 'ALL' range). quids in if you can find one at the right price. ![]() I use and am happy with the Panasonic SH-ALL1C. Decent App - with streaming services you desire.ġ. įirstly - Actually, your Oppo 105 is actually a pretty good solution. Re: I suspect getting a dedicated network stream ing device will tick all the boxes but are there any cheap ones worth looking at. If freeware/opensource solutions are not viable options, what are other things to look at? I suspect getting a dedicated network streaming device will tick all the boxes but are there any cheap ones worth looking at as my budget doesn't allow for spending too much at the moment. I'd be interested to see what other people have tried or managed to get working. In addition, trying to get gapless playback and track queuing to work wasn't successful. ![]() #Asset upnp no embedded art movieThe user interface for both Plex and Kodi looks great for movie playback, but I found them not to be so great for music browsing. Using media server apps such as Plex, Kodi: Not sure whether this is an app issue or an issue with the Oppo. It also has an option to play "gapless to renderer" have when playing to the Oppo there is still a distinct gap between tracks. The mconnect app has a better browser which also shows album artwork and has queuing support which is a start. Though the option to play with gapless playback from NAS devices connected via SMB is available, in fact it doesn't actually appear to do gapless playback. Using the Oppo Media Controller App browsing files from NAS. However the Oppo Media Controller App doesn't always show the playing track artwork (sometimes it uses the embedded artwork, other times it needs a separate jpg file to exist in the folder), doesn't show artwork when browsing nor allows tracks to be queued. Gapless playback works as long as you remember to "long press" on the track and select gapless playback. Using the Oppo Media Controller App with a hard drive directly connected to the Oppo. Some of the things that I've tried already: Ideally it would also support album artwork when browsing for files and queuing files on the go. I am hoping that I can get away with using some form of freeware/opensource solution but haven't found one that I've managed to get gapless playback working properly. With cd's moving to the way of digital storage/streaming, I have started to look at options to "push" music to my Oppo BDP-105, ideally from a NAS rather than a computer acting as a media server. ![]()
