The first option is actually what I'd like to do, but Squeezeplayer doesn't "duck" it's audio, and what's more, the way I'm using this, Squeeze Ctrl doesn't even seem to see Squeezeplayer, making it unusable to me ... That's why you'll see I made a purchase and asked a refund :( This 15-minute thing of Google's to request a refund is really not good if you want to test something rather complicated like this ... I'll explain my setup. It may not be the most perfect way to do it, and I'm open to suggestions, but I tried it first at home before even testing it in my car, and it worked :p On my phone I activate the hotspot function, and my BananaPi connects to it. This way both OrangeSqueeze and Squeezeplayer see the LMS, network traffic between them stays inside the car, and my phone is still connected to the 4G network for Waze and other stuff, but with the "issues" mentioned earlier. I tried Squeezer as a control app, but it doesn't even want to connect to LMS that way, and Squeeze Ctrl sees LMS, but for some strange reason didn't see Squeezeplayer ...
