Description

This is a media player that will playback the audio streamed by PulseAudio's simple protocol module.

The idea is to watch videos from XBMC running on Ubuntu, but with the audio on an Android phone.

For Window's users, a utility has been published on github that will allow the same functionality.

Please see much more documentation at the app's website http://kaytat.com/simple_protocol_player.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

5 ★It works perfectly.
5 ★Awesome. Хорошо. عالی
5 ★Work really really well
5 ★Perfect
5 ★Works great! If you take feature requests, if not then disregard. One feature is the ability to remain streaming at all times (where Android apps cannot interrupt playback) and another is maybe an option to hide the notification icon. I'd like to have this running in background at all times while my Linux chroot is running :) thanks!
3 ★do you have the old vrs, cant open this new update i've tried reinstalling the app but still force close.
5 ★AWESOME WORK!!! I can use this to play audio from a chroot I set up on my android phone! No lag, no choppiness, just epic. Probably because I'm playing a local stream I set up with pulseaudio inside the chroot but still.
3 ★Works well when using USB tethering, however sound only outputs when using the phone speaker, and the audio stops approx. 0.75 seconds after connecting earphones, or when connecting to bluetooth speakers
4 ★I wanted to use my phone as an external "sound card" because my laptop's headphone jack broke. It is much easier to use this app by adding a dummy (module-null-sink) sink to PulseAudio and setting module-simple-protocol-tcp to record its monitor source, so the phone appears as an output in e.g. Gnome. The sound is sometimes choppy even over USB tethering (RNDIS). Unfortunately, my phone doesn't seem to support ADB reverse port forwarding, but I guess it could improve the latency a bit.
5 ★~200 ms additional latency via WiFi compared to host playback. Easy to set up.
3 ★I had the same idea for MythTV. Somewhat choppy but it works
5 ★Works fine trough usb tethering, no chopped audio. I send the audio from my computer to my phone trough usb tethering+simple protocol player, then from the phone to my Bluetooth headset. Works perfectly!
