App to play music NAS > Minimserver > iPhone via headphone socket

[haggis999]

I'm always interested in checking other music players to see if I like their interface better for local playback than Foobar2000 on an iPad or BubbleUPnP on Android, so I have just checked out 8player lite, Mconnect lite and Glider.

Both 8player lite and Mconnect lite fail to offer gapless playback, which rules them out for my needs. The delays between tracks are quite short but still irritating when there should be no gap at all.

Glider also failed my test, as it doesn't actually use the browsing tree provided by MinimServer! Glider went through a long 'syncing' process with MinimServer and then presented the music on my NAS in a much less coordinated fashion than normal. It was too much work to find my usual test piece for gapless playback, so I don't know if that feature is supported by Glider.
