Hello, I have issue with streaming from iOS to my LMS server via AirPlay.
When the firewall is enabled, the iOS device does shows the (Squeezelite) player's name but selecting it fails after 20-30s and shows an error: > AirPlay > Unable to connect to "xxx". When the firewall is disabled, the iOS device does shows the (Squeezelite) player's name and connecting + streaming works fine. I already have avahi-daemon installed and running on the LMS server so I guess the plugin uses it. I have opened both 5353 and 5354 ports (UDP and TCP). My Google-fu led me here, and I found the Mnyb's posts such as: Mnyb wrote: > Yes it works perfectly .

Is there any workaround to avoid opening that much ports? Like forcing some ports (say ~20 ports to support multiple iOS devices). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CDuv's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=70505 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106289 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
