Controls the stream title sent to the device. Typically set in global settings.

Controls the preferred data format to be sent to the device. Valid values are: FLAC, LPCM and WAV. Note that WAV format doesn't support infinite length content without hacks and should be used only if there are no better alternatives; playback may stop abnormally after a few hours of playback due to this.
supports-FLAC
Set to 'false' to disable sending FLAC to this device, even if the device claims to support it. Some devices claim to support FLAC but fail to play a FLAC live stream or have other bugs affecting FLAC playback.
supports-WAV
Set to 'false' to disable sending WAV to this device, even if the device claims to support it. Some devices claim to support WAV but have bugs affecting WAV playback.
supports-LPCM
Set to 'false' to disable sending LPCM to this device, even if the device claims to support it. Some devices claim to support LPCM but have bugs affecting LPCM playback.
supports-pause
Set to 'false' to work around bugs related to pausing playback; a stop command will be sent to the device instead of pause.
zero-length-WAV
Some devices treat WAV files with zero length in headers as unknown-length and read them indefinitely, which is desired in this case. However this a hack and can't be used with every device out there. Known to work with Linn devices.
send-accept-ranges
Some devices dislike "accept-ranges: none" HTTP header, set this to 'false' to suppress this.
supports-infinite-length
Set to 'true' if the device supports infinite-length LPCM streams.
supports-chunked
Set to 'true' if the device supports HTTP chunked encoding.
hidden
Set to 'true' to hide matching devices from foobar2000 output device list.

Summary

This page provides tweaking/troubleshooting options for the UPnP MediaRenderer Output component.

Configuration

Controls all settings of the component, including device-specific workarounds.

Sections

The options are grouped into sections, delimited by blank lines.

Each section contains options that apply to a specific range of devices.

A section may contain lines defining which devices it applies to: manufacturer, model and name.

For an example:

manufacturer=Sony Corporation

model=HT-XT3

.. means that this section applies only to device model "HT-XT3" by "Sony Corporation".

If you specify multiple manufacturers/models/names per section, the section will apply to each of the possible combinations.

Settings

stream-title

Controls the stream title sent to the device. Typically set in global settings.

preferred-format

Controls the preferred data format to be sent to the device. Valid values are: FLAC, LPCM and WAV. Note that WAV format doesn't support infinite length content without hacks and should be used only if there are no better alternatives; playback may stop abnormally after a few hours of playback due to this.

supports-FLAC

Set to 'false' to disable sending FLAC to this device, even if the device claims to support it. Some devices claim to support FLAC but fail to play a FLAC live stream or have other bugs affecting FLAC playback.

supports-WAV

Set to 'false' to disable sending WAV to this device, even if the device claims to support it. Some devices claim to support WAV but have bugs affecting WAV playback.

supports-LPCM

Set to 'false' to disable sending LPCM to this device, even if the device claims to support it. Some devices claim to support LPCM but have bugs affecting LPCM playback.

supports-pause

Set to 'false' to work around bugs related to pausing playback; a stop command will be sent to the device instead of pause.

zero-length-WAV

Some devices treat WAV files with zero length in headers as unknown-length and read them indefinitely, which is desired in this case. However this a hack and can't be used with every device out there. Known to work with Linn devices.

send-accept-ranges

Some devices dislike "accept-ranges: none" HTTP header, set this to 'false' to suppress this.

supports-infinite-length

Set to 'true' if the device supports infinite-length LPCM streams.

supports-chunked

Set to 'true' if the device supports HTTP chunked encoding.

hidden

Set to 'true' to hide matching devices from foobar2000 output device list.

Found devices

Shows a list of currently known devices present on the network. Double click a device to see additional information about it.
