Hi,
I’m beginning to test philippe_44 open-source third party software bridges allowing streaming from LMS to UPnP and Google Cast devices.
I’ve downloaded the philippe_44’s new versions from:
sq2upnp 0.2.10.0-dev-1 => https://sourceforge.net/projects/lms-to-upnp/
I’ve also checked https://github.com/philippe44 for the source code and config user guide.
The new default_on parameter must be set to 1 to use the bridges with Roon.
My first experience (install on WIN10) seems promising even if i don’t know yet:
- if it is really usable with Roon (emulating LMS) as it is.
- if sq2upnp is Open Home compliant.
Anyway I was able to successfully stream from Roon to UPnP renderer (foobar)
IMHO the best place to get support on install and configuration and to give feedbacks to philippe_44 are:
config.xml used to test squeeze2upnp with Foobar200 UPnP renderer.
Only change i’ve made to the autogenerated config.xml is to set default_on to 1 per philippe’s instruction.
For others UPnP devices, SONOS for example, some different parameters are needed in device part of the config.
