Hi there! I'm relatively new to Yatse, just bought the unlocker for "full functionality" on my Galaxy S4 and my RK3188 tablet. Actually, the real kicker for me was the "Resume Locally" function - I've been looking for a solution for this for handheld/mobile devices for ages. Great job!
I must admit - this thread is HUGE. I've read some of it, and tried most search criteria I could think of. I "came up empty", so please go easy on me if this has been covered before.
The "Resume Locally" function is 10s++ out of sync. After testing various playback lengths with various material - my conclusion is that as long as the "Local renderer" (the android unit) can keep up rendering and bandwith-wise, the "lag" remains the same over any given length of playback.
This clearly leads me to understand there is an "initial sync" issue with the "Resume locally" stream. This means, when I take my tablet with me to the kitchen to whip up a snack, or anything else "similar" - while others are still watching the show/movie/etc, I need a headset to isolate me from the living room stereo.
Is there something I can do, to either eliminate or minimize this "initial sync" issue? If I have understood corerctly, this works by retrieving media uver UPnP with a resume point, Is it possible to somehow automatically pause XBMC host playback until Yatse/MX player is "ready to go"? I imagine this might require some communication between the "local renderer" (MX player) and the host XBMC service. Is this feasable? ..or maybe already doable - I just don't know how..?
I know I can
attempt to sync it up manually, but that was not my point here. If this is possible to achieve by means of software - then (close to) "actual" sync is
much more likely to be achieveable, than through "hands-on hit-and-miss". In my personal situation, my adjendant "rooms" are not far away, the audio from the stereo/TV is clearly audiable in the whole appartment and some rooms have external speakers - I just can't see the screen.
I can't imagine I am the only one hoping/looking for a tweak like this. In my view, this would take an already amazing piece of software, to a whole nother level - and open up Yatse for a "new take" on the multi-room streaming experience
If some co-op with the developers of MX player is needed here, I imagine this shouldn't be too difficult - as it could potentially vastly bump up their user base.
