@Steven: Wouldn't it eventually be a good idea to go open-source? Sorry, if this was asked before....

That was fast. Thx for the link :-)

Nonetheless the question arises wether Stevens pov has changed in the last four years. It's a long time, lifes change, technology has progressed, etc.

the source code for the plugin has already been made available but no one has stepped up to the plate to enhance it as far as i am aware

I'm a new user and really enjoying using MB so far.  I'm running it on Windows 10, and have installed the UPNP/DLNA plugin to use my laptop as a controller and stream music to my Xbox One (via Groove).

When I select a track to play in MB, it plays well and displays track info/album art on the Xbox One.  The problem I'm encountering is that it does not advance tracks - once it reaches the end of the track I've selected it just starts over again.  Has anyone else encountered this, and am I missing some sort of setting to fix it?

Thanks!

Welcome to the forum heliolater,

It's a known issue for some others too.

But (as you can read in this thread) MusicBee's sole developer has: nor access to all the different hardware that users might use, nor has the time available to address further (very time consuming) dlna issues.

He has kindly offered other developpers to take over development of this plugin, but until now, nobody seems to have the knowledge/courage/interest.

Hey
Can any of you please re-post the plugin on any file sharing site?
It appears that the media fire link is not working.
Thanks!

Once upon a time I tried this plugin (using MB as a frontend for DAPhile (LMS) and Twonky) and it was working fine.

I recently tried again, and now MB won't find anything connected to my network. The only available IP is the laptop MB is running on (why do I have "Winamp plugin" as an output now?). Has anything changed with the way MB connects/searches the network? I know a recent Windows update uninstalled Samba without even mentioning it. I got that back running, but still nothing.

Hi,

I have  a problem with the size of the settings window...  ::)
My screen is too small so I can't access the last entries like bitrate etc - I manged at least to save the other things by 'blind tabbing' but I'd really like to adjust the bitrate!!

So my  question: where are these settings stored?? I didn't find them in the MusicBee3Settings.ini...

Any help would be really apreciated!

Thank&cheers

Stephan

Hm, would it be possible that we could get a scrollbar for the settings, please!  8)
Would be VERY helpful for people with smaller screen size, like me...

Thanx & Cheers - Stephan

Hi, I wonder if someone can help. This Add On looks like the missing link in getting MusicBee up and running and ditching Win Media Player. At the moment I cast music from Windows Media Player to a network receiver.

I have looking into installing / configuring this and have set the following:

x enable MusicBee to play to a UPnP device (I left continuous stream off for now)
x enable UPnP devices to browse and play from MusicBee  Library
x bucket tree nodes   >500 items
x update play statistics in MusicBee

ServerName = MusicBee       port = 49382


DLNA device profiles  ......  maybe I have this messed up, so here is what I have so far

Typical Entries made in log when using Onkyo Receiver to select files (Onkyo Network Receiver)

1815835; 181 Profile - dLeyna, useragent=dLeyna/0.5.0 GUPnP/0.20.13 DLNADOC/1.50
1815837; 182 Browse - 0,BrowseDirectChildren,0,10001,sort=
1815900; 183 Profile - dLeyna, useragent=dLeyna/0.5.0 GUPnP/0.20.13 DLNADOC/1.50
1815901; 184 Browse - 0,BrowseMetadata,0,0,sort=
1815918; 185 Profile - dLeyna, useragent=dLeyna/0.5.0 GUPnP/0.20.13 DLNADOC/1.50
1815919; 186 Browse - 0,BrowseDirectChildren,0,1,sort=

Typical entries when the  selected file  played using Onkyo Receiver:

1928943; 211 Profile - dLeyna, useragent=dLeyna/0.5.0 GUPnP/0.20.13 DLNADOC/1.50
1928944; 212 Browse - 1_100_2_8,BrowseDirectChildren,0,1,sort=
1928969; 213 Profile - Generic Device, useragent=Mozilla/5.0
1929045; 214 Profile - dLeyna, useragent=dLeyna/0.5.0 GUPnP/0.20.13 DLNADOC/1.50
1929046; 215 Browse - 1_100_2_8,BrowseMetadata,0,0,sort=
1929110; 216 Profile - Generic Device, useragent=
1929128; 217 Profile - dLeyna, useragent=dLeyna/0.5.0 GUPnP/0.20.13 DLNADOC/1.50
1929129; 218 Browse - 1_100_2_8,BrowseDirectChildren,0,1,sort=
1929956; 219 Profile - Generic Device, useragent=GStreamer souphttpsrc libsoup/2.48.1
1929958; 220 GetFile[4] 192.168.1.102 - GET C:\music\The Band\The Band\01 Across the Great Divide.mp3 to 192.168.1.82



This plays the file just great.


My problem is when I want to choose the Onkyo receiver as an Output device. It doesn't appear as an option and I'm stuck with where to look.

As I say, I can do this in WMP, and infact I see log entries happening as follows:
1561369; 164 Profile - Generic Device, useragent=DAFUPnP
1561371; 165 Profile - Generic Device, useragent=Microsoft-Windows/10.0 UPnP/1.0
1562088; 166 Profile - Generic Device, useragent=DAFUPnP
1562090; 167 Profile - Generic Device, useragent=Microsoft-Windows/10.0 UPnP/1.0
1562441; 168 Profile - Generic Device, useragent=FDSSDP
1564080; 169 Profile - Generic Device, useragent=DAFUPnP
1564085; 170 Profile - Generic Device, useragent=Microsoft-Windows/10.0 UPnP/1.0
1564940; 171 Profile - Generic Device, useragent=FDSSDP



Does anyone have any ideas how to get the receiver as an output option so that I can ditch windows media player.


Thanks

Ok, not much going on here :( I will politely leave this  Add On for now. I installed Mediamonkey to check its would work with my UPnP devices and it was perfect other than I so much prefer MusicBee! I will checkout the Airplay add on as the receiver has that as an option, otherwise I can use a USB solution that I have tested.

@AndrewJ

For playing to a device, You only need to set the 1st option "enable MusicBee to play to a UPnP device" like You've already mentioned.

As I had no problems finding & playing to my AirLino it may be a firewall setting blocking MusicBee...?
Do You have any other device You could test? A TV e.g?

Cheers, Stephan
