Interruptions with AirPlay on moOde 8.2.1

[romain]

Hello,

since I've upgraded from v8.2.0 to 8.2.1 I have interruptions in music with AirPlay. Buffer length was set to 0.2 and I haven't change any setting.

Thanks,
Romain

You will prolly need to wait until upcoming 8.2.2 release which will include an option to choose Airplay 1 or Airplay 2. This will allow you to revert version 3.3.8 (Airplay 1) of Shairport-sync.

You can also try the procedure manually

I’m curious. What is your sending app/OS/device?

Hello Kent, I'm streaming music from my Poco F3 running Android 12 with the AirMusic application

Upcoming 8.2.2 will include the latest Airplay 2 build of Shairport-sync. What shipped in 8.2.1 was the dev version. Currently we have a build of dev-rc2 which contains quite a few bug fixes.

Hmmm. Looks like the AirMusic app is essentially undocumented. 

Taking the bull by the horns, I added it to the gazillion apps on my Google Pixel 3a phone and fired it up. I got it to connect to a moOde 8.2.1 player (but don't get any audio throughput) and looked at the shairport-sync.log. For me, the smoking gun is this line

Code:

        0.000632969 "rtsp.c:2609"   Type: "User-Agent", content: "iTunes/11.3.1 (Macintosh; OS X 10.9.4) AppleWebKit/537.77.4"

AirMusic is claiming to be an 8-year-old version of iTunes. That's 3 years older than the official release of Airplay 2 so I, for one, am not surprised it doesn't connect properly to moOde's current version of shairport-sync which has been built for Airplay 2 only. 

Course I could be wrong but---without documentation---who knows?

Thanks Kent,

would you know a better, up to date, app for AirPlay streaming on Android please ?
