UPnP / DLNA streaming on network receiver #105

Open ghost opened 8 years ago

ghost commented 8 years ago

Chromecast is a closed source device with closed API.

But UPnP / DLNA are open protocols and many smart TVs implement it natively. It would be great to implement UPnP / DLNA stream to network compatible devices.

You can get source code from YAACC (GPL v3) here http://sourceforge.net/p/yaacc/code/ci/master/tree/

medavox commented 8 years ago

Consider it added to the queue. If you feel like you can implement this yourself, feel free to have a go.

ghost commented 8 years ago

Unfortunately i'm not an Android developer ... But i'm patient ;)

medavox commented 8 years ago

Fair enough :) I'll add it to the TODO list on the wiki.

ildar commented 8 years ago

I suggest the feature should be implemented on the Yaacc side: https://sourceforge.net/p/yaacc/tickets/117/

ghost commented 8 years ago

Are you a Yaacc developer ?

ildar commented 8 years ago

Nope

ghost commented 8 years ago

Yaacc doesn't seem to be really active. And it's a bit outdated ...

I'm not even sure there are API that could be uses by NewPipe.

Perhaps including source code would be a better solution.

pizzadude commented 8 years ago

I know this is an old issue, but just in case anyone's interested, you can share a video from NewPipe to an application like BubbleUPNP or Allcast and it will work with the chromecast. But that's only if you're okay with installing proprietary apps..

(Those apps work with UPnP devices also)

theScrabi commented 8 years ago

I think if you use cromecast at the first place you also don't bother about using non free software. However I'd like to support upnp but I don't know how, and to be honest, I have other problems to care about first :/

ghost commented 8 years ago

Here is an open source library for Upnp/Dlna : https://github.com/4thline/cling

theScrabi commented 8 years ago

All right. I can't do it right now, but if someone wants to implement this for NewPipe I'll add it.

KeizerDev commented 8 years ago

If I do a PR with Chromecast support, using https://github.com/googlecast/CastCompanionLibrary-android and the use of the default media controller would this be OK? I would like to support the Chromecast Audio for youtube because the official does not do it.

If it's not OK i'll start working on my own client with similar support but I would rather like to do a collaboration.

theScrabi commented 8 years ago

Depends, is this library free software, or did we have to import binary blobs?

KeizerDev commented 7 years ago

@theScrabi Let's implement this: https://github.com/DroidsOnRoids/Casty

theScrabi commented 7 years ago

that went fast :P

logos88 commented 7 years ago

I agree DLNA would be a great addition. It would make possible to send videos to TVs with DLNA support, android TV boxes, etc. And it would help to spread this standard more, rather than the propietary chromecast

ghost commented 7 years ago

@KeizerDev: Doesn't that depend on the proprietary Google Play Services?

I also agree that DLNA support would be great.

theScrabi commented 7 years ago

I think I've asked this question before, but is there a library for java that can send DLNA streams?

korelstar commented 6 years ago

Here is an open-source library for DLNA on Android: https://github.com/4thline/cling

ghost commented 6 years ago

@korelstar: We know about that library, but it's kinda bloated and relatively hard to use. Besides that it only support UPnP/DLNA and we also want to support Cast (v2) and probably other protocols. So we're creating our own library: PipeCast. It can already discover UPnP MediaRenderers, but not play to it. Besides that Android TV support has higher priority for me, so I'll finish that first.

Maybe this could be useful

The yaacc developer has resumed his work! https://github.com/tobexyz/yaacc-code

opusforlife2 commented 4 years ago

@wb9688 PipeCast?

IngwiePhoenix commented 2 years ago

Did this ever land as a native feature? Didn't find it in the app.

I have an old Viera TV here that supposedly does DLNA and I would like to try that.

BalooRJ1 commented 2 years ago

I too would like to know if Newpipe supports UPnP/DNLA as I have an Oppo BDP-103 that I would love to easily stream Youtube videos to.

opusforlife2 commented 2 years ago

@BalooRJ1 It doesn't, but you can indirectly cast through VLC by using it as your external player.

Atemu commented 2 years ago

@opusforlife2 does that work for split a/v streams?

opusforlife2 commented 2 years ago

I have no idea. Never used cast.

BalooRJ1 commented 2 years ago

Thanks for the reply. I managed to find an app called BubbleUPnP which Newpipe can "share" videos to to app itself on Android that allows for it stream Newpipe videos just fine to any DNLA renderer like my Oppo BDP-103 for anyone interested. Works great, much better than casting to Kodi using the Kodi app. However BubbleUPnP is not completely open-source.

opusforlife2 commented 2 years ago

What about Nova Video Player? (Video player for local/network content with subtitle/metadata download support) https://f-droid.org/packages/org.courville.nova/

And other UPnP apps on F-Droid?

BalooRJ1 commented 2 years ago

Thanks for that link, I'll give Nova or Yaaac a try. A prior search on F-Droid seemed to only bring up Plain UPnP and Droid UPnP, which did not work with my device.

logos88 commented 2 years ago

Is Pipecast dead?

opusforlife2 commented 2 years ago

Pretty much, until a messiah contributor comes and revives it.
