Volume leveling via Gizmo/jremote
dafloydman:
Thats all good Brian.
I appear to have gotten Rodericks suggestion working which as you also
suggested uses bubbleupnp ( vl works nice and play counts )
I have installed bubble on mac computer and connected through bubble.
it would have been nice to be able to use jremote in tandem but cant seem to
get sound when i have bubble as a zone .
This has been great advice and it is the furthest i got . Thanks again
Also the ability to download to my device . which is a nice addition
sounds like i have some reading of open vpn as well
RoderickGI:
DLNA discovery wouldn't work on an open internet connection. However DLNA may work over the internet once the connection parameters are known and established on your device.
But I agree that using a VPN would be better when outside your LAN.
A quick search shows that people have been using (trying to?) BubbleUPnP over a VPN for five years or more! But further searching shows that it may be necessary to use the BubbleUPnP Server to make it easy. I suspect though that just the correct Port Forwarding in your router to the MC Server, and perhaps specifying the server IP address directly, rather than using DLNA discovery, will get you connected. However, on Android there may be issues. Regardless, there seems to be a lot of information on the internet about getting it all working.
My Windows 10 Mobile has a VPN built right in. Neat. No extra software required. It's even available in the quick access notifications area, so easy to quickly turn on. Sweet. :D
Let us know how you go solving this one Dafloydman. I'm sure other users will want to know.

I don't mean to be "that guy", but my solution to this problem is to use a dedicated player application on a dedicated device with a selection of music that I like. Volume leveling is built in to the app. All the music is local, so it will play when I'm in the Congo, Key West, or in my secret lead lined bunker. :)
I'm currently using an older Android device with an SD card and a Pono. Both work really nicely.
Brian.
RoderickGI:
That is my preference too Brian.
But that doesn't solve the number of plays issue, and sometimes it is nice just to see what you can achieve with technology. 8)

Hi Guys .
Some of what you are saying is over my head but I did get it going thanks go to both of you guys.
It involved installing the bubble server on my mac through terminal . and then copying the relevent
settings which are all on the bubble upnp site onto my android handset.
Once connected i then get the choice of media servers i then of course connect to jriver.
I have used it all day at work
with all of my play counts updating , and all at the same volume which is absolutely brilliant .
I cant use jremote for this which just means that i cant rate tracks as i am listening ( something i sometimes do )
but that is still easy enough when i get to a computer and sort through the last played smartlist. , having said that it
would be great if i could somehow use jremote through bubble but still really happy with the result.
Another pretty attractive thing about bubbleupnp is that in the preferences it allows to actually keep the streamed files
( in there converted format )on
your device which i have done, this will be useful at those times that i dont have a network connection ( very seldom )
So in short so far it is great and it is goodbye to syncing phones
Again , Thanks alot to both of you .
Cheers
Floyd
