Cannot connect from android DAAP client #48

I am running forked-daapd 0.15 on arch linux. I can connect to my library from an Itunes client on the same network. However, I have been unsuccessful in my attempts to connect to forked-daapd from my droid incredible (also on the same network).

I have attempted to use daap-client which: is in the android market here: https://market.android.com/details?id=org.mult.daap and has a google code page here: https://code.google.com/p/daap-client/

This is what the forked-daapd logs show when I try to connect (this is three attempts): http://pastebin.com/1b2MkMPK This is what a logcat from the phone during a connection attempt looks like: http://pastebin.com/EgGCPEeQ

The daap-client maintainer has, so far, not been able to get forked-daapd running to test this himself. I was just wondering if you had any insight from your end as why I can't connect.

I have also noticed (by running 'avahi-browse -r -k -a') that forked-daapd and itunes announce themselves (as having zeroconf services) to the network, while my phone does not. Since daap-client on my phone does find my forked-daapd server and I can see the zeroconf services in ZeroConf Browser (http://melloware.com/products/zeroconf/) on my phone, I know that my phone can see zeroconf services. Is there perhaps some broadcasting that it is not doing that is needed for the connection negotiations?

I'm having the exact same problem. A fix would be much appreciated!

I have contacted the developer of the android-app too and he's looking into it too.

I know the app worked with mt-daapd though.

There are a couple of bugs in the Android DAAP client which I reported (issue #32 on google code page). Hopefully these get fixed soon.

I dunno, but banshee (Ubuntu 11.04) cannot connect to V16, either.

amarok and banshee are affected by that bug https://github.com/jasonmc/forked-daapd/issues/78

I just tried with TunesRemote-SE (same codebase as Android TunesRemote) and it causes forked-daapd to segfault. It looks like it happens when it's trying to download playlists based on the last entries in the forked-daapd log before the crash.
