Yes, periodically (forgot the time interval) UAPP check your license if valid or not, thru Google Play.
Well that's interesting ... aka a potential problem.

I'll be going on a cruise ... probably no internet for 2 weeks. Since headphone listening off my phone will be my main private time amusement, it would be very annoying if the music player stopped working.

Anybody have ideas on how to eliminate or minimize that risk?

True. About 10 minutes per day for free. Not clear if that includes a satellite connection on sea days.

Next step up is "unlimited" for $229 per person.

"Premium unlimited" is $339 per person.

I could probably spend my time in the casino for less cost.

Maybe a noob question: I loaded my SD card and inserted it in my DAP. I opened UAPP and tried to scan my SD card and I got the message: For your protection set up another folder, or something like that. Why does it not read, why does it not scan my SD card directly? I have all my albums in the card, I mean I've not created a folder like My Music, for example, and put all of my albums there. They are all in the card. Is there a Setting I can adjust or should I create a folder and put all of my albums inside, for UAPP to scan them?

This was added as a security measurement by Google a while back. Move your albums to a single top-level folder. You cannot scan the whole SD card in one go anymore.
Other option is to tick all folders manually but you have to repeat that if you add a new album.

10 minutes per day for free is more than enough to let UAPP (or any other app) do a Google Play license validation :wink:

Hi.

A little issue with upnp casting. While I'm casting SACD iso I see bit-perfect indication (1 bit sample 5 MHz). The receiving device (dx220max) same time is displaying 32 bit 385 MHz.
220max easily plays that iso from my NAS as 1 bit 5 MHz.

Maybe I should change something in the casting settings, shouldn't I?

An apparent problem with bit perfect mode. Of course bit perfect is automatically disabled when I use my Toneboosters PEQ. If I turn PEQ off and select "enable bit perfect if possible" it should automatically enable bit perfect, and consequently sound better, right? Well, in that condition it actually sounds better with bit perfect off selected. So I go with what sounds better regardless of what appears to be screwed up logic, and leave bit perfect turned off. What's going on?

Bitperfect doesn't necessarily mean better .. just different. Bitperfect merely means that the audio file gets digitally transferred from the source file to the DAC unchanged. So no DSP or other type of digital processing, and the only coloring occurs in the DAC and AMP after the signal has arrived in the DAC.

Turning bitperfect off simply means restoring access for all kinds of circuits and filters that are available to digitally change the tuning, temperature, texture, thickness etc of the audio file ... Some people prefer listening to a source file or stream exactly the way it originates from the source material and some people prefer tuning that more to their personal tastes .. Especially the Hiby Darwin based players offer excellent tuning capabilities exceeding those of most other brands. We can only be happy that UAPP offers so many different ways of processing music in that sense :)

Hi,

Since some time now, it seems that UAPP is a little stuck.
Few updates.
And the "Cast" feature seems to be stuck a "beta testing" stage.

I would not expect the developper to add new features until he finally manages to fix all the existing ones.

Davy is on his own and sometimes has multiple projects running in parallel. So chances are that he currently is prioritizing other work. I would not worry, he'll never turn his back on UAPP :)

Probably... But for now it doesn't seem there's a light at the end of the tunnel.

By the way, would you happen to know if there is a place where it is possible to download successive releases because I think the older versions happened to work better than the newer ones :frowning2:

Regards.
