Hi All
I'm new to Ubuntu. Im running 12.04
I have a synology diskstation server and various airplay and dlna devices on my home network. I am able to stream music from the server to all devices using either a pc (windows) or an iphone.
I've been trying to stream music to a Marantz SR5008 AV received which supports both Airplay and dlna.
I have installed (all from the Ubuntu software centre)
- Pulseaudio preferences
- Pulseaudio-module-raop
- Rygel
In pulse audio prefs i have ticked "make discoverable Apple AirTunes sound devices available locally" and "Make discoverable PulseAudio network sound devices available locally. In In sound settings I can now see all of my networked devices. I have started rygel by typing rygel in the terminal.
I start playing some music with Rhythmbox using the local speakers (headphones) I can hear the music playing. However, if I select my marantz amp in sound settings, the mp3 appears to pause and no sound comes from the networked device.
I have read many forum posts on this issue and I followed this guide
http://askubuntu.com/questions/1463/...to-my-airtunes
As yet, Ive not been able to get it working. Could someone provide me with some information on how to get this working please? Bear in mind I'm a new user of Ubuntu/Linux!
Thanks!
