I have a new piece of equipment coming which uses Volumio as it’s media player.
I have a Logitech Media Server running on Windows.
I want to be able to play music from the LMS via Volumio- to do this I will need to install a Volumio plugin on LMS (as I understand it- or do I install an LMS plugin into VOlumio when my player arrives???)
ANYWAY please help me understand what I need to do in order to use my Logitech Media Server library for playing music through Volumio
on LMS install UPnP/DLNA Bridge and enable UPnP Renderer on Volumio. Then you can select Volumio form the players in LMS.
This no longer works, because AFAIK with LMS version 8.4.0 the LMS UPnP plugin no longer works
The UPnP/DLNA Bridge plugin is not what I want to use.
I would prefer the UPnP/DLNA Media Interface plugin because that would allow LMS for be seen as a UPnP SERVER.
As I understand it, the UPnP/DLNA Bridge plugin advertises LMS as a UPnP PLAYER which is not what I want.
Have you looked at Volumio’s “Media Servers”?
In this case you need to install “UPnP/DLNA Media Interface” in LMS.
UPnP/DLNA Bridge plugin does not advertise LMS, it reads players that advertise themselves.
I added the UPnP/DLNA plugin to Logitech Media Server. Couldn’t get it to work, LMS is not advertising itself.
Now, I recently upgraded to Lyrion (new branch of development now that Logitech has abandoned LMS) and added the UPnP/DLNA plugin to Lyrion, and it DOES work, I can see Lyrion in Volumio on my DEQX Pre-8
