n-stream 3.4 -- unable to find upnp server after app sleeps

Posted by: DavidCT on 26 August 2013

Hi,

I am streaming to my NDX from a Synology nas running both Minimserver and the Synology Media Server. After inactivity, n-stream goes into the background. When I reactive n-stream, it can control the playing music and play different titles from the queue. However, if I try any operation that browses the current upnp server, I get a message saying that the server can not be contacted. I can still browser the upnp server from the NDX controls.

If I kill n-stream and restart the application, the app sees both my upnp servers. This problem did not occur until I upgraded n-stream.

Are others having this challenge? Any tips?

Thanks,

David

Hello Chaps. I have just downloaded ios 7, now when the I-Pad goes to sleep and wakes up n-Stream has no problem finding the server, however if I close the cover on the i-Pad and cause n-Stream / i-Pad to go to sleep then it can't find the server when it wakes up. So I'm just not closing the cover. "Ah Well" these things are sent to try us.

The simple answer is "No" - it doesn't "work" like that.

It isn't feasible to just roll out small updates due to the way that the AppStore works (effectively we release to Apple and they place it on the store anything up to two weeks later).

The code will be released when the developers are happy with it and Apple approves it.

Cheers
