SimpleProtocolPlayer NG
Audio player for uncompressed PCM streams
This media player plays uncompressed PCM data from a server over your local network. This is meant to be used for streaming audio from a PC to your Android phone or tablet. The focus has been latency and so all the options are intended for the user to be able to find a compromise between latency and quality.
As a rule of thumb, a low sample rate + mono + 50 ms or less of buffer time are the settings that are generally used.
