I've managed to successfully enable WAP in my pCP, connect my Android to
the Pi's Wi-Fi signal and control it from the pCP web interface and
Squeeze Ctrl - although pCP never seems to remember the Bluetooth
speaker that was last used, so there's a bit of delving about in the web
interface to connect it again after a reboot.

One question: 'this thread'
(https://www.diyaudio.com/forums/pc-based/275586-picoreplayer-picore-linux-raspberry-pi-squeezelite-post6326746.html)
suggests LMS needs the time to be set.  Looking at the code on the
screen when booting the Pi in WAP mode, it shows it can't find the time
- would this mean Scrobbling doesn't function when pCP is in WAP mode?

Is there anyway to enable this?  Was wondering if I somehow tethered the
Pi to the phone, perhaps the phone's connection could supply the time -
but can't see how this can be achieved if the phone has no external
Wi-Fi of its own?  For context, I'm going on a mini-cruise shortly, so
there'll likely be no Wi-Fi or mobile data signal in the phone it could
tether to, but I'd like to be able to use my pCP (in Flirc case) and 2TB
HD as a portable music server and still be able to record its Scrobbles
for uploading when it next has a "proper" Internet connection.

Cheers

Andy
