awesome! Thanks so much for the info!
awesome! Thanks so much for the info!
So I hooked up all of my devices.
1. HomeServer running Twonky Media Server and AirUPnP
2. AirPort Express Base station Wired to audio on my Receiver
3. PlugPlayer app on my iPhone.
My PlugPlayer app never sees the base station (via the AirUPnP server). However, I am able to launch the Apple Remote app and use the base station as a renderer for my itunes running on my mac. What am I missing here? Is there something else I need to check in AirUPnP or PlugPlayer? I turned off the firewall on the HomeServer just in case.
Any help would be appreciated.
UPDATE: So I got PlugPlayer to find my Airport Express through AirUPnP but about 10 seconds into my song the connection was severed and the AirPort entry was disabled. Is there some way I can get to the bottom of this in AirUPnP, i.e. more verbose logging or something?

Could it be the newer firmware for the AirPort Express that is causing the AirUPnP not to detect the device on the network? My AirPort Express is running the latest firmware 7.5.2. (May be a seeding issue?? - just wondering)
On a side note, is there any new development on this application? If not, could I help you extend it. I would be happy to help mainly because it would be great if PlugPlayer 3.5.1 on my iPhone would see the Airport Express. :D
Thanks again for the awesome app!

We do not plan on picking up work on the Air UPnP, it was a technology preview only.

A question I previously asked has just been answered!
http://www.engadget.com/2011/04/11/s...official-airp/
This guy has reverse-engineered an AirPort Express to produce an emulator. At the moment it looks like it's a Linux-only Perl/C thing, but maybe it will make it to Windows. Unfortunately I'm guessing the legality is questionable and therefore AirUPnP won't be looking in to this...?
Okay... it seems ANYthing to do with setting up a wireless music server is WAY above my head, 'cause everything to do with it is frustrating as all hell. Anyways, after much just-mentioned frustration, I can play iTunes to Airport Express wirelessly. Whoopdi-doo. Now on to new frustrations...
After reading this post, and that at Computer Audiophile site...
http://www.computeraudiophile.com/co...t-Express-UPnP ...
... i feel like pulling out my hair, nearly. And hell, I'm a pretty computer-tech savvy sort! All I wish to do is play Foobar on either my desktop or my laptop, and have it shoot wirelessly over to my Airport Express, which is connected to my stereo. I don't have iPhone or any other remote control device... i don't want to access Foobar from afar... i just want to play Foobar directly, and from there have it end up on the AE.
I have:
1. a computer
2. Foobar
3. Airport Express (AE)
4. Airport UPnP installed on the computer
5. foo_upnp.dll dropped into the Components folder of Foobar
6. Avast AntiVirus and Windows 7 Firewall protecting my computer
7. Windows Firewall - Adv Settings - Outbound Rules - New Settings... i made TCP and UDP Port rules allowing outgoing access through port 26126 (as mentioned early in this forum string), as well as another rule allowing upnp.exe outbound access.
Okay... so, what's this about PlugPlayer - is this something additional I need... or is this for some kinky 3-way access between computer (w/Foobar), iPhone, and AE?
I run Foobar-View-UPnP Controller... i can see "Main: dbPowerAmp Rennaicance" as a selectable device. I select it. Great. Now what? And why is the UPnP Controller have Player controls... I want to use Foobar to play and control audio! I really hope I'm not limited to managing a single song at a time... maybe I'm CRAZY, but I envision dbPowerAmp (upnp.exe) running invisibly in the background, all knowing - all seeing, able to detect my Airport Express... then I run Foobar, selecting 'dbPowerAmp' as output, go to whatever playlist/songs I wish to hear, hit play, the music flies to my Airport Express and POW, I hear it on my stereo. No? What am I missing here?
(sigh) Sorry if I seem a little flustered, but hours have been wasted!
Your help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

hello,
i have a problem,
uPlayer.exe to stop several times a day. The 'Airport UPnP Starter.exe' is always running. operating system Windows 7
You have any idea?
Best Regards,
Gabor
I would gladly spend $30 to get a real "AE as UPnP"-product. Anything similar does not exist, or even seem to be planned... Have mailed Netgear, D-Link, Gefen, Argosy, no one has this simple and genious function.
I am sorry to say, dev work on this item is pretty much ended now.
