RE: The control app thread
Is there an advantage of using BubbleDS instead of BubbleUPnP with an openhome renderer? I ask because BubbleUPnP is speaking openhome, too, with my lumin U1 mini.

No advantage unless you prefer the fact that BubbleDS is strictly for audio thus has all irrelevant settings removed (it also only detects OH renderers). Also if you use the Radio tab of BubbleDS (whose support depend on OH renderers, but upmpdcli based ones support it assuming you can freely configure it), you obviously need it. BubbleUPnP is updated more often that BubbleDS so might be the better choice. Speaking of which, I will update BubbleDS soon to make it on par with BubbleUPnP. |

Thanks for clarifying this. I didn't remember correctly the difference between BubbleDS and BubbleUPNP with a Linn DS as renderer. The difference is (I think) that BubbleUPnP uses UpnpAv only to control a Linn DS and BubbleDS uses OpenHome only. |

Besides obviously Linn DS, the most common ones are upmpdcli based (includes Volumio) and 'BubbleUPnP Server' based. Correct, to control a Linn DS as OpenHome renderer you need BubbleDS. Although BubbleUPnP could absolutely also do it, this restriction is to avoid confusion for Linn DS users, as BubbleDS is the most practical and simpler app to best control a Linn DS, with the zillions of irrelevant settings of BubbleUPnP not exposed, not having to choose between the UPnP AV and OpenHome renderer, and the OpenHome specific Radio tab. All of this is largely the consequence of BubbleDS being released first a time long ago (at a time where the only OpenHome implementation was Linn DS), followed that BubbleUPnP that built on it. If it was made today, there would only be BubbleUPnP that can do it all. Ironically, it has been a few years I do not have Linn DS hardware anymore, as the PSU of my Majik DS-I and Sekrit DS-I both died. |
