![]() but if you read the reviews on the app store, my experience is not unique. What makes all of this frustrating for me is that I can grab the Denon physical remote, walk up to the streamer with its three-line LED display, and browse both Pandora and DLNA as smoothly as I can with BubbleUPnP or the Pandora app.Īs much as I like my 720AE, I am in the market for a new streamer, because I can't stand their app. ![]() In the end, I just use Airplay to the Denon and play Pandora from my iPhone. The Pandora browsing on the D&M app is also bad - the goofy 'scrolling arrows' on the bottom, coupled with no control over station sort ordering makes it a strain to find the station you want. In both cases, it starts out OK, but as I navigate a level or two down it invariably hangs and often crashes the app altogether (or disconnects from the server and makes me start over).Ĭonversely, I can use BubbleUPnP on a Nexus 7 tablet with the same DNP-720AE and can browse 12,000+ tracks, queue-up and playback as fast as I can tap (literally). I cannot reliably browse either a Twonky Media Server (7.0.9-Special on a MyBook Live) or a JRiver Media Center 19 DLNA server on a Windows 8.1 host. I have a Denon DNP-720AE and the streaming control in their recently updated app is a horror show. Well, I suppose it depends on which streaming product you have. Marantz and Denon are quietly improving their iPad app into a very decent control center for their streaming products.
