So, if you have a Marantz receiver you are out of luck using MMA to play on receiver?

I have installed MM for Android and can play music from my pc on my android phone. I would like to be able to cast that music to my Denon AVR 660. When I select the Cast button it shows no options. Is there a way to set MMA to do this?

I have used Bubbleupnp and it just discovered the Denon automatically. I don't like the app and have lots of other issues so was looking for an alternative.

TY!

I was having trouble with the blue tooth working reliably. The Denon AVR 660 works through the wifi with the UPnP. I understand very little about all of this but I did manage to download Bubbleupnp and connect to my Devon AVR 660. I know it connecting through the wifi using UPnP but I am just parroting what I've read.

So, I guess I will continue to use that app for my music to Devon. Plays great, the interface seems very strange when it comes to playlists and music playback. Never seen anything quite like it and I feel like it isn't standard or user-friendly.

Was hoping to make something else work.

It sounds like you mean the Denon AVR-S660H? In that case it may not work, as MMA works with industry standards of DLNA and Chromecast, neither of which are mentioned by Denon. Instead Denon seems fully committed to their proprietary heos app. You'd still have Bluetooth or AUX as options from a phone.

I have used BubbleUPNP to play music from my phone to my Devon 660 and home sound system. I don't really like the interface for playlists and such. Is it possible to use Media Monkey with my Devon?

I just downloaded the free version but would gladly pay for pro to have this feature.

Thank you,

Linda

If I can play my android phones music via Bubble, why can't I do this with media monkey?
[/quote]MMA do not have support for HEOS API as filed under https://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=19667 and also MM5 which do not have full support as described at https://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=19668

With MM5 we can use custom libraries and make our own libraries/protocol workarounds, where with Android we are much more limited due the Google permissions standards and limitations per OS builds.

Hi
Thanks for the reply but I do not understand your phrase

do not se it is DLNA renderer capable only that you can play music off DLNA Server like MM5 on Windows (Page 74 in manual)?

Is this something you're working on?

Oh and I installed Bubble and that finds the Denon no problems.

Yes, if you read my first paragraph you'll see that mmw 5 works extremely well on my new win11 laptop. It finds everything with no hassle....
It's just the app that is lacking.

Hi,
Do you see denon using MM5 on Windows?

EDIT: Based on https://manuals.denon.com/dra800h/EU/EN/download.php?filename=/DRA800H/EU/EN/pdf/DRA800H_EU_EN.pdf I do not se it is DLNA renderer capable only that you can play music off DLNA Server like MM5 on Windows (Page 74 in manual)?

Hi
Whilst browsing this forum I've seen many posts about this but very few solutions.

I really like Media Monkey and have paid for the gold licence on my laptop. The MMW runs fine and can easily find everything on my network, including the Denon receiver DRA-800.

But whilst running the app on my android phone, it doesn't even see the media player. I've tried to add it manually, I know the IP but not the port or any other detail. The Denon is wired into the router and has a fixed IP.

I can easily play Amazon music to the Denon via my phone. And I'd like to cast all my music to it via MMA.

Is there a way thru this?

I suppose I could switch on the LG TV and cast to that but that seems a bit of a daft thing to do ...

Grateful for any pointers

Prof

Is it cost that is holding up development for HEOS [Marantz] connections between MMA and the receiver? If so, what about another Add-On, Plug-in, etc. that would be an additional cost $$? i.e. Spotify uses HEOS for Spotify Connect to a Marantz receiver?

[/quote]Oups, sorry, I missed your reply. THX for bump.

MM5 has no problem to operate the Denon. But it does not like to send the log.
I tried to send a log with MM5. Unfortunately there was an exception. But the log file was created. Where can I store it?

If you need more info about the Denon, like the DeviceInfo.xml, then let me know.

Best regards, josch
[/quote]You do not send Debug log from MM5 directly as it is made for developers to trigger exception in case of debugging addons. Instead you would need to supply full debug log as described at https://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=86643 and also MMA debug log (☰ -> ? -> Send Logs -> WRITE LOG ID here -> Press OK to send debug log from MMA) is needed after you try to play to Denon and fail so that we can compare which communication work and which one do not. That should complete debug info and we shoul dbe able to tracks where MMA fail.

Hi, Sorry about that--I was referring to the issue that was raised with Roku displaying metadata out of sync with what was being played. We haven't actually tested it as we don't have that particular Roku device, but I just wanted to let you know in case it solves the problem.

Re. the Marantz issue, I'm sorry that it's open for so long, but with limited resources we have to focus our efforts on the issues that are affecting the greatest numbers users--right now there are still about 30 such 'urgent' issues that we're trying to tackle.

:-(
