streaming Spotify to Sony BDP-S370 using Rygel on Ubuntu 12.04



Hi,

I was recently streaming Spotify to Sony BDP-S370 using Rygel on Ubuntu 12.04.  Update Manager had some upgrades to rygel but was holding them back.  I uninstalled rygel , added the ppas and installed the new version 0.18.1-1.~jensge1~precise4
Now it doesnt work . I have server icons showing on the Sony, 'Audio on stuart-2012' and 'Gst Launch' .  If I click on them I get "There is no playable data" when I try to start streaming from either.

If I start rygel in the terminal I get;
Rygel-Tracker-Message: rygel-tracker-item-factory.vala:66: Using /home/stuart/Music as upload directory for object.item.audioItem.musicTrack
Rygel-Tracker-Message: rygel-tracker-item-factory.vala:66: Using /home/stuart/Videos as upload directory for object.item.videoItem
Rygel-Tracker-Message: rygel-tracker-item-factory.vala:66: Using /home/stuart/Pictures as upload directory for object.item.imageItem.photo
Rygel-Message: New plugin 'Tracker' available

Rygel-Message: New plugin 'Playbin' available

MediaExport-Message: 'file:///home/stuart/Videos' harvested
MediaExport-Message: 'file:///home/stuart/Music' harvested
MediaExport-Message: 'file:///home/stuart/Pictures' harvested

get a regular error;
(rygel:3967): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_variant_get_int64: assertion `g_variant_is_of_type (value, G_VARIANT_TYPE_INT64)' failed

my rygel.conf file (/home/stuart/.config/rygel.conf) is;

I have set up paprefs;

 Network access tab
  ticked ; make discoverable PulseAudio network sound devices available locally
 Network server tab
  ticked ; all 5 options
 Multicast/RTP tab
  ticked Enable Multicast/RTP receiver
  ticked Enable Multicast/RTP sender
   selected; send audio from local speakers
 Simultaneous Output tab
  selected add virtual device for simultaneous output on all local sound cards

I have tried various options in pavucontrol, including enabling DLNA/UPnP streaming in the playback tab, but it makes no difference

Any ideas?

Stuart
