UPnP stream or Remote?

[WanFie]

Dear Mr. Tiki,
As you know, I find TuneBrowser the best sounding audio software I have ever used. Better than the well-known, widely used audiophile players.
I do have a problem that occurs occasionally. I have opened a topic about this in the past. The conclusion was that UPnP streaming from my tablet showed problems. After I installed a better WiFi installation and bought a somewhat faster tablet, it was indeed better. But still… sometimes the music still stutters.
I have now installed WiFi analyzer on my tablet and see big differences in data transfer between e.g. JRiver and TuneBrowser. That is 1 Kb/s with JRiver and 750 Kb/s with TuneBrowser. I think that the stream with TuneBrowser runs via the control point. With other Openhome software, this goes directly from the network to the PC. The control point is only used as a remote there. The result is that the stream is much lighter and therefore has less interference.

Is it possible to adjust this in TuneBrowser?

I use BubbleUPnP on a Lenovo Tablet.
TuneBrowser runs on a dedicated self-built streamer based on Windows.
A powerful WiFi access point is three meters from the tablet.

Thanks in advance,

Kind regards,

Hello. Thank you for using TuneBrowser.

The routing of data during UPnP playback depends on controller operation and equipment configuration. For example, in the following simple configuration, TuneBrowser performs local playback without networking.

• TuneBrowser(Media server) -> Controller -> TuneBrowser(OpenHome player)

If you describe the path of the data, maybe I can find out something.

Thanks for the quick answer.
I think the difference in the distance traveled is different for both systems.
1. Tunebrowser:
Qobuz-> network -> wifi -> tablet -> wifi -> streamer.
2. e.g. JRiver or Openhome player
Qobuz-> network -> streamer. And besides that, the remote control via Wifi and the tablet.

In case 1. all data runs via the tablet (a lot of data over wifi).
In case 2. the data goes directly into the streamer and the tablet is only used as a remote control (little data over Wifi).

Kind regards

Thank you for your response.

I understood that TuneBrowser is running on “streamer”.

You can see which file(URL) TuneBrowser is playing. Please check following. On the Player View, hover the mouse over the rectangle that appears to the left of the track.

Hope this information helps.

192.168.2.206 is the ip number of the controller/tablet.

Thanks
