Hello,
First post. I have some questions.
1. I select album and press play in Bubble and it plays in my renderer (Denon Piccolo network music player) HiFi setup. I dont have to switch ON my Denon at all, Bubble does it automatically. Now, my problem is I want to switch OFF the Denon also after listening to music. I am unable to do it in Bubble.
2. I want volume control in the software itself and not the hardware volume. The hardware volume is not very quick it takes much time.
3. I have FLAC files in Netgear NAS. So, if i select Local Renderer (Lennovo tablet), IS the Bubble playing the exact FLAC files or is it down sampling and playing in mp3 format?
Please help. Tx.

This must be such a 'native' player which stays in pause when user of device answers on incoming or make outgoing call.
It must play *.APE and *.FLAC and has simple interface:
playlist + buttons "Play", "pause", "skip forward", "skip backward", "shuffle" and "repeat all/current" + position of playing of current track with possibility of rewind + volume control.
That's all
Who dares?
if you check the Hero app section there is an app there that may fit your needs.
I've use that player. The 'rooted' device is NECESSARY - it's may be difficulty for ordinary users. This player plays track with the same volume in any ways of use of the device.
I'll try to tell my wishes to the author of that player but i'm not sure that it's possible because the player is JAVA application.
Thanks for advise - player is on support.

CyanogenMod will play FLAC files natively.
I have been using a new feature of the neutron music player that I wanted to point out to anyone interested. The player has the ability to volume normalize (like replay gain) but can do any type of encoding, aac, mp3 ogg, wma. In addition it takes into account the equalizer setting you have chosen for that album. I had been searching for this feature for many years and attempted to use mp3 gain on a PC to do this but that does not work with wma/aac/ogg files. I tested with some tracks that were ripped at very different volume outputs and indeed neutron handled the normalization well.
Here is the link to the description:

Instructions on how to do this in the software are in the neutron forum discussions.
Hope this helps anyone who is tired of constantly adjusting the volume to keep a given desired volume (or not blowing out your eardrums if you listen at the high level edge as I do)
It is a great app that makes my media play all around the house, but…
I have a PS3 Media Server on my HP Elite Book notebook and use this for streaming and transcoding AV (my audio library is in FLAC) to renderers. Two of them are android based devices: Sony Tablet S and Samsung Galaxy S+, both with Bubble on board. And this is where my little problem starts. In the library of both android units every track of each album is doubled (both have FLAC displayed under the track title), although it appears only once in for example Sony PS3 library or on other devices. In addition Bubble on Samsung does not play FLAC properly: there is some digital hiss from time to time and it sometimes gets stuck and doesn’t play at all. Strange thing is that when FLAC files are stored on the SD card, they play OK using for example PowerAmp. Bubble on Sony Tablet S plays FLAC ok.
Yesterday strange thing happened, which I can’t explain: I didn’t change ANY settings, neither on PS3 Media Serv. or Bubble in Samsung, and when I launched Bubble and tried to play music from my HP FLAC library, all track where present only once and when played, the WAV extension was displayed and it went with no problems. ??? In the same time on Sony there was still two copies of each track, both in FLAC. Unfortunately, after another restart of Bubble on Samsung it displayed again two FLAC versions of each track. In desperation I set “always transcode FLAC” on the PS3 Media Server. After that one of these doubled in library tracks appeared MP3 but it didn’t play at all, and… I gave up.
Question 1: can I make Bubble on SGalaxy S+ play WAV from FLAC encoded files (it happened for unknown reason and worked fine)?
Question 2: can I make Bubble on SGS+ play FLAC without problems?
Question 3: why does Bubble shows each track from the library twice (does it come from PS3 Media?)
If anyone can HELP I’ll be more then thankful.
I have a SGS4 and am trying to figure out the easiest/best way to stream or control music on a remote amplifier via wifi. I have a solution now, but wonder if there is something better - I have a number of resources available:
1. Android tablet and phone
2. Windows laptop
3. blank raspberry pi (this will be my eventual route, but need something live and running with less than 1 hours effort - xbmc =fiddling)
4. iphone
Requirements:
1. be mobile and in control - walk anywhere around house/yard and manipulate audio played on house speakers
2. stream online music preferably from grooveshark, or other options: pandora/spotify ... typically these have everything i have in my local collection +more.
Currently I have 2 methods that are so/so:
1. Login to grooveshark on my pc, Q up a playlist, and hit the Broadcast on the grooveshark page
2. Open the Broadcast link on my tablet and subscribe to the broadcast to play, plug tablet in to amplifier
3. go to phone and open Grooveshark Remote app (free or $2) to add songs (play now or play next in Q), manage Qs and playlists, volume.
4. Go to pc and open gremote.com in *Chrome* to authorize phone.
That actually works quite well, I like Grooveshark, and its ios/droid safe, and music keeps playing even if droid dies or gets a phone call... but sometimes cant find the song I want and jump to another media player.
Method 2:
1. Pandora on my tablet plugged in to amp
2. Use Tablet Remote app to control, this allows me pause, skip songs, and adjust volume
This is a weak solution - no song searching or playlist selecting, roughly it makes noise come out the speakers in a pinch.
Seen:
Soundseeder - nice but only supports basic http audio or local content, no groove/spot/pandora
Allcast - limited to local media on phone or nas
Subsonic - not sure what this is, still trying to wrap my head around it, seems like based on music I own only
Other ideas???
Hello, I hope this is the right forum for my question. I searched already but apparently there is not an answer.
I listen digital music using j River Media Center and I installed Gizmo android app on a tablet as a remote controller and also to listen locally on a headphones. Gizmo is limited to compress music (up to 320Kbps) so I searched for a player supporting the lossless and HD music I archived on my library. Apparently Bubbleupnp is a solution, because Gizmo can select this player instead off the internal one. I bought therefore Bubbleupnp and after the configuration everything work well. The only (great) problem is that when the app plays HD music by-passed by Gizmo on the screen is shown as MP3/48KHz or MP3/96KHz. Of course I disable the transcoding with lossless file. Playing instead with Bubblupnp the same song is displayed simply as "Flac" without any other info.
So the questions are: Am I really listening to transcoded music and, if yes, I how I must configure the app to listen lossless? Or: Is it a misleading message? or, again: in this configuration is impossible to listen in lossless and/or HD mode?
Many thanks in advance.
