Minimserver bubbleupnp server upgrade#
My stance there could change whenever my next Mac computer upgrade cycle comes around, because I'll be able to take the current Mac mini and make it a dedicated music server, at which point perhaps HQPlayer or some other RAM/CPU intensive program may be worth a look. Running a JRiver DLNA server has been pretty much set and forget, and I really like it that way, all I now need to do is pick up my iPad or Moto X as a control point and just play music using the excellent JRemote app.

I also think the beauty for me in using the microRendu is in no small part NOT fussing around too much either with the software or computers. I too don't/won't use Roon or Tidal for various reasons including the one you cited. I echo much of that sentiment, although for me, it's DLNA/MPD mode that is doing just fine. Options of switching between different ways of streaming music is good, it give variety in term of sound.
Minimserver bubbleupnp server trial#
In term of software, I don't mean just usability - I mean stability as sometimes Lumin/Linn app might not find the server etc.Īs for Tidal don't blame you - I am on day one of free trial & I am already thinking of leaving.I think I prefer the choice/ editorial of Qobuz However don't forget to switch the App mode on microRendu via a browser or it won't work. But you can connecting things up via Roon. However don't think you can send music from Minimserver to HQPlayer though. You will need to connect PC to the router via Ethernet cable. All of this is of course subjective & probably system dependent.Īs for HQPlayer you will need a PC (i5 - i7) to handle it as it is demanding. They sound more like conventional player with Lumin more spatial/ presentation further back & Linn vocal a bit closer (Linn style).
Minimserver bubbleupnp server install#
All you need is to install Minimserver in you NAS (might also need to install BubbleUpnp Server as well due to openHome, check CA site etc). As for Lumin/Linn/Minimserver/DLNA probably worth a try to see whether you like them or LMS - you can switch between Lumin & Linn easily via the app you use on your tablet or phone. LMS is somewhat similar in term of 3D but just not as pleasant due to thinner sound & plastickiness. Roon is more organic, non digital but flawed. Whichever way very glad my jitter nightmare is now a thing of the past.Īll of this I suspect is quite system dependent so please take it with a good pinch of salt!! In term of microRendu, very stable & easily switch between the different modes. LMS stability seems fine but don't like the web control thing though.
Minimserver bubbleupnp server pro#
As for Lumin/ Kazoo stability seems a bit touchy though (but workable) and in term of UI, Linn looks pro & Lumin a bit cowboy.
But cost is perhaps too high - if their player improves then might reconsider. In term of software, Roon is most polished/ professional and integrated with Tidal very nicely. I will be testing HQPlayer once I get a NUC (Linux based) - sadly by the time I set up everything my trial with Roon will be at an end so won't be able to link them up. As JPlay free trial is very basic so I can't try that with microRendu. Thus only 2 main players missing - JPlay & HQPlayer. I have also tried Foobar with either BubbleUpnp (not good) or Minimserver, it sounds acceptable with usual Foobar sound (like detail) but no jitter. Both however is more like standard digital presentation though.
For the remote control I use Linn Kazoo or Lumin and oddly they do not sound the same even though Minimserver/DLNA is being used as their server! Lumin has better spatial & possibly more detail but timing slower(?) whereas Linn is more forward (vocal is more magnified), possibly a touch less detail(?) and seems to have more silence delineating between things (maybe artificial?) but it sounds more polished as a product.
I have also tried bubbleUpnp which I don't like and use Minimserver instead.
Very musical but its characteristic seems to apply to all music. Roon on the other hand sound more like music gone though a classic valve amp with nice spatial depth, thicker sound, more presence, non digital but poor spatial width. So far for me I don't like LMS so much although it is actually somewhat similar sounding to Roon but just feel thinner & a bit plasticky. I am still experimenting & have tried lots of different modes except HQPlayer which I dearly love to test but lost the free trial due to accident on installation. That is the question I would like to ask everyone - which is your favorite way to stream music?
