Does the controller stream the content or just commands to the player?
Beantwortet
I recently added the BluOS module to my NAD T775 receiver and am using the Android controller app on my Motorola G5+ to stream music from the library on my NAS (mostly FLAC) and from Amazon Music, etc. So far, so good, but I have a couple of questions.
Is the app just sending commands to the player and the player is what is actually streaming the music over my home network wifi? Or, is the Android app streaming the music and sending that data to the player? If the app is doing all/most of the work, that seems odd for the app to stream the content and then turn around and just forward that stream on to the player. That means now you have two wireless devices streaming the same content (source to app, and app to player).
Part of the reason I want to understand this is at least once a day, I am getting an exception message in the app saying something along the lines of, ".....connection to the stream timed out" which seems to kind of imply that there is some limit on how long you can be streaming music via the app.

OK, thanks. That is what I thought made the most sense that the app is just acting as a command/control source for the player. I know the timeout issues has happened streaming music from Amazon Prime Music. I don't remember if it has happened with music from my NAS or not, but I will watch for that and see if I see any pattern.

Today I exclusively streamed music from my NAS and did not receive the error about the stream connection timing out so this must be related to something with streaming from Amazon Prime Music, although I have not seen that before streaming directly from music.amazon.com in a browser on my Macbook.

Sorry to warm-up an old topic, but I am interested in the same thing: if the controller app is just a controler, then why does the volume from the NODE decreases when I receive a Viber message on my phone?
This is a normal behaviour for a Bluetooth device, but shouldn't occur on NODE with WiFi streaming.

Hi Vladimir
If your phone is interrupting the music, you are not streaming Wi-Fi and the source of your music is the phone via Bluetooth. This will not happen using the BluOS App. Please ensure your Bluesound Player is properly connected ot the network using www.bluesound.com/setup
