Is there any easy solution to add DLNA client functionality (=renderer/player) to RaspyFi? I use DLNA in my house setup and don't want to change to mpd. Happy with my setup of both DLNA servers and DLNA control points on Android and Windows.

Changing things also gives me minus on WAF-points…. Confused Wink Laugh

From the how-to's at:
https://github.com/hzeller/gmrender-resurrect/blob/master/INSTALL.md
and
http://blog.scphillips.com/201…..revisited/

$ sudo apt-get install autoconf automake libtool
$ sudo apt-get update

$ sudo apt-get install libupnp-dev libgstreamer0.10-dev \
gstreamer0.10-plugins-base gstreamer0.10-plugins-good \
gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly \
gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-alsa

$ sudo apt-get install git
$ git clone https://github.com/hzeller/gmrender-resurrect.git
$ cd gmrender-resurrect
$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure
$ make
$ sudo make install

Then I had to edit one line in the start/stop script. So start the editor with:
$ sudo nano scripts/init.d/gmediarenderer
and change one text line from this:
DAEMON_USER="pi:audio"
to this:
DAEMON_USER="root:root"
Then exit with ctrl-x and save

$ sudo cp scripts/init.d/gmediarenderer /etc/init.d
$ sudo update-rc.d gmediarenderer defaults
$ sudo shutdown -r now

Now RaspyFi should show up on any DLNA controller you use.

MagnusT, thank you for your help. Wonderful.

I al also using Bubble upnp. I immediately saw Raspyfi:root as Library and Raspberry as Renderer. The problem is that inside Library I do not see any album, folders, only a black screen.

I have a USB multiplier for the USB DAC and a pen with music. I am pointing to the disk in my XP for the music. When I control Raspyfi from a browser I can sell all the music and the DAC works OK. I believe it's just a matter of configuration of the libraries inside the Raspyfi which are not being looked up correctly.

As I haven't written a single like of code for the past 30 years I am quite lost here. Anyone has an idea of what could be happening ?

I can choose from the libraries of other devices and play them in Raspyfi.

Thanks a lot.

Not working for me. I have made all the steps above. I can see Raspyfi in my DLNA client (Synology Audio Station), I point to it, but no sound comes out.
