Android/BubbleUpnp about pulseaudio-dlna

Which distro do you use?

The process which records your audio stream fails on starting. It seems as the necessary commands could not be found on your system.
Check if the commands parec and lame are available on your system.
In your case i guess it is lame which is missing.

I use Debian Jessie.
I have installed lame, but nothing happens.
But i also dont get any hint on the app about a possible connection.
When i enter the ip manually, i get this:

What you can do: Insert the following three lines in pulseaudio-dlna/pulseaudio_dlna/upnp/server.py, line 70.

print(bridge)
print(self.server.recorder_cmd.format(bridge.sink.monitor).split(' '))
print(self.server.encoder_cmd.split(' '))

so, that it looks like:

    def create_processes(self, bridge):
        print(bridge)
        print(self.server.recorder_cmd.format(bridge.sink.monitor).split(' '))
        print(self.server.encoder_cmd.split(' '))
        recorder_process = subprocess.Popen(
            self.server.recorder_cmd.format(
                bridge.sink.monitor).split(' '),
            stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
        encoder_process = subprocess.Popen(
            self.server.encoder_cmd.split(' '),
            stdin=recorder_process.stdout,
            stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
        recorder_process.stdout.close()
        return recorder_process, encoder_process

Then save and try again and please paste the output.

Perhaps this is about some legal issues with mp3 encoding in lame. In past versions of ubuntu you had to install lame from the multiverse repository to also get encoding features.

Can it be that it is necessary that you need a sound source so that BubbleUPnP can connect?
Because i have tested it and now it works fine, much better then rygel. Thank you for your help.
But is there a possibility so that the latency is under 10s?

[masmu]

What do you mean by sound source?
You just start BubbleUPnP and leave it. You don't have to do anything in BubbleUPnP.
When BubbleUPnP is started, just switch the application sound stream to 'BubbleUPnP (SM-G800F)' via pavucontrol as it is shown in the README image.

The latency is mostly network related. More information about that #51 here.
How fast it can be can be viewed in that really cool video. But in that setup it is used with cable connection.
I have a latency about 3 seconds on wifi... But i am sitting next to the wifi transmitter.

e.g. youtube, vlc.
If i connect with BubbleUPnP to Windows, i select Windows in BubbleUPnP. Here it is not so.
So it work now. I wil check the links.

pulseaudio-dlna is not a DMS (Digital Media Server). It is made for redirecting streams from your pc to devices, not made for accessing files on your pc via the devices.

[w3stley]

yes, i know. But the connecting is a bit different, so at first i was a bit confused.
With switching to the html5-player, youtube is imho a bit faster.
