Hi there

I've been using Bubbleupnp installed on a raspberry pi4 to stream music from Qobuz and Tidal on to a Hegel streamer amp, using Linn Kazoo as a controller.

Over the past week or so I've been unable to log in to Tidal and I can't figure out why. All I seem to get when I click the login tab in Kazoo is an error message (see image)

Is anyone else having this issue? I'm wondering whether it's because Tidal have been messing with their subscriptions recently...

It's happening to me as well, starting last week.
If you reset the application preference using the control panel which also allow to uninstall apps and try again, you will notice that Tidal has introduced a "human" verification, but Kazoo cannot prompt the user properly. Then you will get the same error again.
Kazoo has been last updated in 2016 so I suppose won't be "fixed" (but I'd prefer to be wrong) so I am afraid we are out of luck here, at least with Kazoo. Unless Tidal changes something but this looks unlikely for a very old app like this one.
It's a shame, I still like to use Kazoo when I am on a windows laptop.

Have ripped disks on internal disk of Melco streamer. Can play them with streamer controls (Melco uses Twonky server) without problems.
With previous versions bubble seen the rips with upnp libraries engaged in Local and Cloud.
Not anymore. I don't see any libraries in Melco.


Update: there was outing of the electric grid and after that I saw libraries again... Interesting that renderer restart didn't help before outing. Uffffffff.

I'm trying to find a way to pause play and resume at the same point some time later. I prefer not to be starting again at the beginning of the track.

Hi all! I've been using BubbleUPnP for about 3 months. However, recently I began to experience problems with Audiocast. It either does not turn on or turns off on its own after a short period of operation. I have already reinstalled the application. It did not help. To work with the application I use a Samsung S20 FE phone, Android 13 and an amplifier with a built-in Hegel H390 streamer. Through another application, streaming from Qobuz works stably. Help me figure out what the problem is with BubbleUPnP's Audiocast.

definitely the "waiting for renderer on startup" is broken to me: bubble never manages to auto reconnect again to a chromecast which was power cycled. after i cancel waiting and connect manually it simply works. try this: connect to a chrome cast. close bubble. power cycle chromecast. reopen bubble. it will be trapped waiting for renderer forever. also i have two ccasts in two different rooms, so i roam a lot and always get myself trapped on waiting. and disable wait toggle dont work. it keeps waiting the same. i wish three aspects were checked here:
1- why when a ccast is cycled bbupnp cant connect as before anymore?
2- why disabling wait don't work? a choose device prompt would be better than the fake hope the waiting trap causes on us.
3- for the multi device roaming scenario, it would be awesome if bubble could timeout a device and follow the next on the list.
just trying to sum up. best regards.

    BubbleUPnP 1.6.8 and BubbleUPnP Server 0.6.5 are available

    Thanks to everyone who contributed suggestions, bug reports, logs etc.

    BubbleUPnP 1.6.8

    Video transcoding enhancements with BubbleUPnP Server (requires upgrading to BubbleUPnP Server 0.6.5)

    • transcoded video preserve embedded subtitles (mostly found in MKV). MX Player must be configured to use the H/W+ or S/W decoder to allow to select subtitles
    • when playing a transcoded video, ability to choose interactively audio/video streams to be included in the transcoded video (when there is more than 1 audio/video stream)
    • added ability to download transcoded videos (as MKV), preserving all audio/video tracks and subtitles of the original video
      Transcode quality can be set in "Settings > Network And Settings > Video transcoding", in the "File downloads" transcoding section.
      Requires licensed BubbleUPnP.

    New features

    • added Google Music auto playlists: "Thumbs up" and "Last added" (needs a Sync to appear)
    • added exit button to rich JB notification. Exit the app the same way than Menu > Exit
    • added option Settings > Library > Play displays Now Playing. If enabled, play actions in Library immediately switch to the Now Playing screen
    • added option Settings > Now Playing > Keep screen on. If enabled, the screen is kept on when device is plugged to power and on the Now Playing screen. Enabled by default
    • added "Music > Artists > All Albums" local media server folder, listing all albums sorted by album artist
    • added "Show metadata" action in context menu of album folders in Library (useful to see long titles)
    • added instructions for playing tunein radios from the Android web browser, in Settings > About/Help > Tips > Interacting with other apps
    • added ability to edit an item's metadata (title, album, artist) with context menu > Edit metadata in the Playlist tab and in a saved playlist folder (in Library).
      Useful to rename items having missing or incomplete metadata that have been sent to BubbleUPnP from third party apps (ex: tunein). This feature must only be used for items that will be added to a saved playlist. It *does not* modify metadata on the server
    • show album composer in album lists in Library, if composer is present and Settings > Display > Item size is set to Medium or greater
    • downloading a video also downloads the external subtitle file if present
    • local folder search also searches album name and artist instead of just title

    Bug fixes

    • fixed subtitle URLs sent by recent versions of Twonky (7.x) not recognized
    • fixed download of non-media items (such as subtitles) giving an error
    • fixed Stop (long-click on Play/Pause button) sometimes triggering playback of next track
    • fixed "Settings > Display > Multiline items" not working properly in Library album folders
    • fixed lock screen controls not showing when playing videos to external renderer
    • fixed current LAN renderer lost when network connection switches from WiFi to mobile data or no network
    • fixed error when playing podcast sent from Share action of Doggcatcher
    • fixed broken playlist track advance on some Roku renderers
    • fixed images displayed from Wild Media Server being low resolution (workaround WMS bug)
    • fixed Search action not available on phones, in Library folders containing items only, such as playlists. Now available under menu > Search, allowing local search of these folders
    • fixed possible crash when playing a video to a remote BubbleUPnP instance
    • fixed obscure crashes, some of them involving old versions of Android


    BubbleUPnP Server 0.6.5

    • added support for transcoding videos to MKV instead of MPEG-TS in a number of cases. MKV is automatically used when embedded subtitles must be preserved, and
      for transcoded video downloads (both require Android BubbleUPnP 1.6.8+). ffmpeg must have been compiled with MKV support
    • fixed proxy media servers not discovered by Windows Media Player
    • added option -useNumericIpInStreamURL to force the server to return numeric ip stream URLs instead of a hostname.
      This may be required for some specific renderers to accept to stream from a media server via tethering. This setting is forced if the browsing
      client is a Samsung TV, which requires it
    • fixed small CPU spike every 30s on slow NASes
    • fixed stream URLs becoming invalid if browsing large number of items (more than 3000)
    • fixed Sony SA-NS310 renderer recognized as a media server instead of a renderer
    • fixed proxies not carrying the X_MS_MediaReceiverRegistrar service
    • libshine is used for mp3 transcoding if compiled in ffmpeg (useful on slow NASes as it uses way less CPU than libmp3lame)
    • added missing Standby action support for OpenHome renderers (simply stops playback)
    • fixed transcoded images rarely failing to load due to low read timeout
    • Windows installer: updated ffmpeg to 1.2, added ffprobe, updated Java installer to 7u21

    BubbleUPnP 4.0 announcement


    I've been working on BubbleUPnP 4.0.

    It will refresh the UI with Material Design 3, including (optional) Material You support (on Android 12+). It's been a lot of work and there is still a lot to do as the app is huge (and old, 12 years and counting. First version was released on Android 2.3!). Converting the app settings to androidx.preference, fragments and tweak some prefs for MD3 took several days alone!

    Here's a few work-in-progress screenshots until a beta is available later this month.

    The screenshots show various combinations of material You in dark and light mode. There's also to the ability to combine a light theme with dark bars for a look close to the current Light + dark bars theme (last screenshot). Note that dynamic tinting of the Now Playing screen based on cover colors is not yet implemented (as in the current version) but this is planned.
