DLNA Control Points and Devices

[Mike48]

What do other MinimServer users favor as control-point apps? As devices to run them?

I am using UPnPlay on my Android phone. Unlike the other CPs I've tried, it displays full information on tracks (playing or queued). This is especially important in classical music, where the trackname (title) tags can be long. It is irritating to have the title cut off after the beginning of a work's name, before the movement information.

However, in my setup, UPnPlay crashes at least once per listening session, losing the current play queue. That would be a reason to switch, or maybe to try it on a more capable device (Android tablet?). I have tried Kinsky, but I can't get the entire title to display. I have tried Bubble, but I had constant problems.

Would I get better results using a tablet as the remote? If so, would I be better off with an iPad? I dislike Apple's hyper-proprietary worldview, but it seems that many of the better apps of this type are available only for iThings.

Comments, please!
