Audio streaming over Wi-Fi: Solutions? Tips? in c/android

[–] xodoh74984 3 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

I'm referring to streaming all audio from the phone over WiFi in the same way that Bluetooth audio can be streamed.

Cast is occasionally supported by specific apps, but there is no audio driver level support for any protocol.

DLNA / UPnP streaming is the most open and widely supported WiFi based audio protocol I'm aware of. Many modern stereo receivers can receive DLNA audio streams. Bluetooth has always had limitations both with range and quality.

Audio streaming over Wi-Fi: Solutions? Tips? (self.android)

Is there any Android ROM that supports Wi-Fi audio streaming natively without root?

AirMusic is an app I've used for a few years to achieve this, and it supports a large number of protocols, including:

DLNA / UPnP
AirPlay
Sonos
FireTV
and more

However, without root, AirMusic relies on capturing audio from the screen recorder app and relaying it. It's a clever workaround, but I find it frustrating that stock Android doesn't simply support Wi-Fi audio at a system level. It shouldn't be this hard.

I'm currently running GrapheneOS. Unfortunately, the native screen recording app in Graphene seems to block AirMusic's ability to capture audio entirely, so I've lost the ability to stream audio.

Does anyone here know of a better solution?

Frankly, this seems like a feature that should've been native to stock Android 15+ years ago.

Here are some techniques for measuring alignment:

By in large, the goals driving LLM alignment are to answer things correctly and in a way that won't ruffle too many feathers. Any goal driven by human feedback can introduce bias, sure. But as with most of the world, the primary goal of companies developing LLMs is to make money. Alignment targets accuracy and minimal bias, because that's what the market values. Inaccuracy and biased models aren't good for business.

YouTube is a hit on TVs — and is starting to act like it in c/technology

I believe it's supported. On initial install, I remember reading that it was possible to fling a video to SmartTube from the official YouTube app, but that wasn't an option for me using NewPipe on Android. Saying that out loud, it's probably worth it for me download the official YouTube app, just so I can do that.

Also, the GitHub readme is a bit long and intimidating for installation. All you have to do is install this app:

Then use the code 28544 to install SmartTube.

It's just a way to sidestep Google, since Google obviously doesn't want an app like this listed on their official store.

How long until someone uses the Hello Mario Framework or similar to build a game where Luigi battles US healthcare, pharma, and oil execs?
