Windows Phone 8 Compatibility (Not a bug) #15

just a note:

AV Remote: no output MyMediaHub: no output Lindada: plays some 2 mp3's, both 16384bitrate audio/mpeg - one pops/clicks, the other plays but a bit 'scratchy'. Could by the PSU/cord.

Thanks for the compatibility report.

Regarding the bad sound quality: it is a known issue that RPi does not have the best audio quality. Having said that, a good PSU and using pulseaudio seems to help apparently (personally, I am running things with Alsa and it is fine).

Regarding AV Remote and MyMediaHub: sorry to hear that they don't seem to work with gmrender. I recently changed a bit the way UPnP variable exchange eventing works to work more (I think) standard compliant; maybe you can try again with a 'fresh' version of gmrender-resurrect, if things work now ?

If not, it would be good if you could create a logfile of the startup and connection of AVRemote and MyMediaHub with the --logfile=/tmp/my-logfile.txt option (only in more recent versions of git provide the --logfile flag). Hopefully we can get to the ground of it and make gmrender work as well for these apps.

Thanks!

FYI, there is an example in https://github.com/hzeller/gmrender-resurrect/blob/master/INSTALL.md#misc-options how to create a logfile.
