Crashes when loading directories from Fuppes server

[Elviswarhol]

Using Fuppes media server on Windows 7 with out issue with other devices (Revo Heritage radio) and even other players on iPad (ML Player lite) however, air player crashes whenever I attempt to read the main audio folder (250 folders approximate). Recognises server and short directories of one or two folders appear fine. Encoding for FUPPES is set to UTF-8. Any suggestions as to how I can get Airplayer to work correctly?

Can I know your device's generation, iPhone3G and earlier can't be used to play non-native media formats, due to CPU issue.

I'm trying to run the AirPlayer on an iPad. Fuppes' device settings are default. DNLA is on.

Transcoding is on in FUPPES and the only media in the folders is either MP3 or JPG. Even if there was media in the folders that was not Native, surely the player should not crash when simply trying to list top level folder names? Appreciate any help you can offer to get the player running.

For iPad, no file format limit
1) Make sure your transcoding in the server sider is off.
2) Make sure the media server provides the other formats media files to us, we are a client, just shows the server provided to us.

Have tried with transcoding on and off. There is no difference. The Airplayer still crashes when attempting to list folders in the main music directory. The server is running correctly as other players/clients are able to display listing correctly, and play files. The AirPlayer is not even able to load a list of folders/containers without crashing. Ie, it's not even at a point where file types and transcoding would play a part as there are only folders/containers to list, no files. FUPPES allows for customized settings according to the device type connecting to it, what I'm wondering is, is there a setting I can adjust here to help the AirPlayer not crash? Other players and devices work without issue, so from my perspective, the problem is with how the AirPlayer is processing the response from the server, if I can adjustthat output in some way to get the player to work, great, otherwise I would like my money back as the product is not working as described.

Yep, if you can help to test, provide your public address of your media server info to olimsoft@gmail.com, we will help to test it.

Hi,
I have exactly the same problem crahes on the Ipad (os 4.2). The only configuration difference is that I am running the fuppes on a XP. Other clients like MS media player are working fine. Did you already have a solutions or work around, or something I could change on the server settings?
