DLNA app for IOS with chromecast audio support
It happens to the best of us :)
If you continue to have trouble, we can follow up via email and get things sorted out.
A warm welcome to Joe//Glider.
I am sure, that you will get many costumers for your app amongst the Beoworlders...
....if this will work properly (including gapless play).
In the next days I will send you a mail with some details about my setup/my servers on the network (they are mentioned in my former post, though).
When can we expect an iPad version - by the way?

Thank you Millemissen!
It's great to be here, and I look forward to working with you to resolve the problems you're experiencing.
Glider attempts to build a single, unified database of all the music it can find across multiple sources. This is pushing the limits of the old UPnP specification which was never meant for this type of metadata sync operation. As you can see, there's still some work to do in making sure we can support everyone's media server of choice, but I'm confident we can get there with a little help.
The B&O devices I've seen do advertise that they can support gapless playback over UPnP, but unfortunately I don't own any so I can't say for sure.
The iPad version has been in the works for a while now, and should be released within the next month or so.
I should also mention that the current App Store version of the app fails to discover the B&O UPnP output, so you won't be able to test the gapless functionality at the moment. If anyone is interested in testing this before the next release, just send me an email and we'll get you setup.
Hi jans,
Thanks for giving the app a try. I've tested with this exact combination many times, so I'm sure we can get it sorted out.
Would you mind emailing me at support@glideraudio.com to follow up?
If anyone is interested, the latest version should now include support for all B&O DLNA devices.
Finally had Glider finding one of my DLNA servers on my network, the MinimServer, which was running on an old Windows7 laptop.
However, this is not normally on and supposed to be used 24/7 - was just for testing.
The result: when I try to open Glider (newest version) it flashes shortly (you just get a glimse of the content of the files on the server) and closes down. That's it!
Means, I can't even use Glider anymore....unless I delete the app and start over again.
Not very convenient :-(
Note: my Beomusic app sees every DLNA server on the network!

Oh No! That certainly isn't very convenient :)
If you're still interested, I'm confident we can get this working with all of your media servers. Just send me an email and we can get it fixed.
