Good; does a better job of reconnecting to a server when going from Wifi to Mobile Data and vice versa. I use a VPN to connect to the server when out and about, and network changes are common-place; SqueezePlayer (which I have used for years) always skipped songs and stopped responding when network changes occurred, but this app seems to deal with change pretty well (thanks to the timeout and retry options I presume). The client-side bitrate option is also useful for remote listening. I would perhaps like to see a 100% fixed volume option for the LMS client, though, as I would rather just change the volume of my phone (and Bluetooth headset) and not have to think about another volume level. I realise, though, that perhaps this already exists (does "Use Device Volume" and "Disable Volume Buttons" together fix the volume of the client on the server?), and I might just be getting confused, especially because OrangeSqueeze has its own Device volume options. Perhaps SqueezeCtrl would be a better fit with SB Player. Anyway; thanks!
How do I enter a port address and a login information (UserName/Password) for the SqueezeServer? I do need a port to get through from outside my LAN, to enable port forwarding in my router. The default port is not usable.
Sync is working now, but unable to keep the player awake when not playing. Have to launch the app each time you want to start playing again, even though excluded in power saving.
** UPDATE: thanks AngryGoat you have fixed it for my Chromebook!!! :) I am very grateful that you have done this and it works wonderfully too.. it even stays running in the background until i close Squeeze Ctrl.. many cheers!
Solid LMS/Squeezebox player. Nicely integrates with the superb Squeeze Ctrl. Won't play non-44.1kHz sample rate streams (unlike Stefan Hansel's player). Seems to lack ability to move play position within a stream in some circumstances (which may be the stream's fault). Edit: 5 stars now. I'm very much corrected on the matter of sample rates. I use this on phone, tablet and Amazon Firestick almost daily.
Works great for controlling my system!
Had to buy this in order to use my new nVidia Shield as a Squeezebox. It works fine, exactly as expected. I probably need to find a remote-as-mouse app to allow me to rename server profiles. I now own this app in Google Play AND Amazon Appstore (to use my FireTV Stick as a Squeezebox). I also own Squeezebox Player which I run on most Android devices. I think I have a problem. :)
Excellent app runs nicely in the background on my NVIDIA Shield.
Can't open. Asks me to disable battery optimisation but it's not in there list for me to do that
Very useful and easy to use!
