Looking for musicplayer other than vlc that can handle upnp streaming

I put something like this in /etc/fstab

//server_ip_address/folder_name /mnt/folder_name cifs x-systemd.automount,x-systemd.idle-timeout=1min,rw,uid=username,gid=username,credentials=/etc/samba/private/credfile.cred,iocharset=utf8,vers=2.0 0 0

Replace server_ip, folder_name and username with your actual values.

Then create /etc/samba/private/credfile.cred with eh following contents:

username=myuser
password=mypass

myuser and mypass are the credentials you use to connect to the router.

Make sure that file is only readable by root.

If your share is public and you don’t need to login to read it, then you can not worry about the file and remove credentials=/etc/samba/private/credfile.cred from the options.
