Summary0019951: Some MP3 tracks fail to cast via UPnP / Casting sometimes skips (regression?)
DescriptionFor some reason, in build 1075, an MP3 track (Roadhouse Blues) which plays normally in MMA failed to cast to BubbleUPnP. The seekbar moves continually left to right for about 30s and then it advances to the next track.

Debug log: CH53T3D2Z1

Note: it casts normally to MMW. I'm not sure if this is a regression or not, but I can't remember ever observing a case of an MP3 file not casting. Also, a user has indicated that he's seeing UPnP Casting regressions in 1074 in which MMA often stops casting. Details with debug logs at:

This still occurs with build 1089.

1 Initiated playback of the following to BubbleUPnP : Sirus, Roadhouse Blues, Light Switch, ...
--> Sirius plays normally, Roadhouse blues attempts to play for a minute and then skips to Light Switch which plays normally
Debug log: SMHIE746ZH
2 Performed the same, but this time casting from MMA to MMW
--> Everything plays normally
Debug log: EE18Y212L5
3 Performed a similar test, but this time casting from MMW to BubbleUPnP
--> Tracks (including roadhouse blues) play normally. This rules out that it's a bug with BubbleUPnP for this particular track.

I've uploaded the MP3 to the ftp server.

Tested with the provided track - no issue.
The BubbleUpnp app should not be optimized for battery during testing.
Fixed in 2.0.0.1161

This still occurs for me the the tracks in question. I suspect it's something about the Roadhouse blues track, but what's strange is that it plays normally locally and only exhibits problems when casting to BubbleUPnP.

Debug log: CKVZTKAU72

Note:
- The UPnP device was on the entire time (so it's not related to battery optimization)
- Casting to Chromecasts audio devices works normally

I've found another track that exhibits this issue (also an MP3 VBR track). However, now, for both tracks the behavior is a bit different:

1) The tracks cast normally from MMA to Google cast devices
2) The tracks cast normally from MMA over UPnP to BubbleUPnP servers
3) When casting from MMA to MMW5, a few seconds of the track plays and playback then skips to the next track
4) When casting from Bubble UPnP to any of the 3 devices described above, playback proceeds normally

So it seems that MMA has trouble casting certain tracks to some devices!

Note: the problem doesn't occur 100% of the time. The easiest way to replicate the bug is as follows:
1 Create a playlist of 5 tracks: A, Roadhouse Blues, B, Wrecked, C
2 Start playing track A, start casting to MMW, and then move the seekbar to 3/4 through the track
--> Track A continues playing
--> Once A finishes, Roadhouse starts playing and skips track B after a few seconds
--> Track C plays
--> Wrecked starts playing and then skips after a few seconds to track C

I can confirm that MMA is creating different kind of stream (unlike BubbleUPnP) that MM5 has trouble to play..
Moving to MM5..
