Just tried build 1441 and part of of the original request is fixed. The song's info are ok but the art work are still missing.

Thanks

Further analyzing shown that MM really should use another way to get the metadata. Will be fixed in the next build.

Thanks!

I have tried
TVersity(Server)-->Foobar UPnP Controller-->MM(Renderer)

And I understand the misunderstanding now.

You mean that the info isn't shown on the player while it is shown in Now Playing.

See this screencast:

Workaround is to restart playback of the same song.

Meaning MM still show "unknown" using BubbleUPnp as a controller.

Serviio(Server)-->BubbleUPnp(Controller)-->MM(Renderer)
TVersity(Server)-->BubbleUPnp(Controller)-->MM(Renderer)

It's foobar_upnp controller in foobar2000 available here

Here is the WinDBG log file for HTC device.

I've also tried with BubbleUPnP(which allow me to choose the renderer and library) and it' s the same behaviour, here is the log file from WinDBG.

Foobar as both server and renderer is not a good example, because Foobar can share the track metadata internally.
Try it with another renderer to see whether the track info is properly shown.

There must be something that 'Music for Android v3.0.21' does differently than PlugPlayer, I don't have an android here to test, so please generate debug log, it could tell me why MM doesn't receive the info.

BTW. What is the 'UPnP Controller' app on the first screenshot? It doesn't seem to be an android app, isn't it?

Sorry for the lateness of my reply.

Are you pushing the song to the renderer(controller to renderer) like "WMP Play to" feature?

The first screenshot is what I'm trying to explain. Foobar(or HTC) is pushing a local song to MM renderer via the UPnP Controller. Nothing appear in the playlist and cover art. The word 'Unknown' is shown instead of the song on the seek bar. Time is properly registered as we can see 17 secs elapsed in both Foobar and MM.

In the second screenshot, you can see Foobar renderer receiving all the info from HTC player in the same scenario.

Yes--I tested MM (renderer)/Foobar (server), and MM(Server)/Foobar(renderer), using PlugPlayer as the controller, and in both cases it works fine.

I think that abeloin means that he uses HTC EVO 3D X515a as a micro media controller where he sets MediaMonkey as renderer and Foobar as server.

But which app you uses on the HTC EVO 3D X515a?

In similar scenarion I tested with PlugPlayer (on my iPhone) where I set MediaMonkey as renderer and it worked fine. So maybe there is a problem with the app on your HTC EVO 3D, did you try another renderer with the same app or another app with MediaMonkey renderer (whether it works)?

Hi,

I just tested with MM4 (build 1432) as a Player for the Foobar server, and vice versa, and both scenarios worked fine. Any more details about your scenario that might help figure this out?

Thanks.
