Re: [slim] https connection to LMS ?
At least I now understand why LMS remains using http since the hardware (in my case a squeezebox-2) requires it. Once again constrained by the abandonment of the product by Logitech after purchasing from slimserver leaving the customer base. To be fair you have to accept the fact that there are technological constraints, too: it's unlikely https could have been added to those players for the simple lack of memory. When they were designed memory was still expensive and thus very limited. ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

I do not have a keyboard that I can hook to the pi direct, I have always used web browser connection. I get the notice "piCorePlayer is not currently using the wifi interface. Squeezelite/piCorePlayer will default to the wired interface. Shutdown, remove the ethernet cable, then reboot to use the wifi interface." It kind of goes around in circles I cannot connect to the wireless because I am wired, and it will not shut down and reboot in wireless mode There is another thread which the OP did a work around where they connected the pi wirelessly to their phone hot spot, and were then able to log in wireless They then changed the SSDI back to their home wireless network. But this required the direct keyboard/mouse/monitor hooked up to the Pi I currently do not have a wireless keyboard that the pi will recognize. I will try other wireless keyboards in the house and see if I can do this work around r50us68's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=70853 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=115559 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] https connection to LMS ?
AFAIK the players don't communicate with LMS over HTTP. This interface They do when playing local media files, or when streaming proxied and https online resources. ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] https connection to LMS ?
I think you should have searched better, because this seems like a duplicate entry to me. AFAIK the players don't communicate with LMS over HTTP. This interface is really only to allow you to control what is being played. The main point about using plain HTTP here instead of secure HTTPS is that it doesn't require a (commercial) certificate and because of this *every* home appliance that offers some web based interface will use plain HTTP. The thing here is that HTTPS is difficult and requires maintenance that a regular home user shouldn't and doesn't want to be bothered with. As such it would amaze me very much if Chrome would enforce HTTPS and by doing so make communication with such home appliances impossible. If you are willing to do the effort of maintaining the validity of the HTTPS certificate it is not that big a deal though. Simply place LMS behind a HTTP(S) proxy (e.g. lighttp, nginx, apache), but do note that these web server applications may (by default) prohibit some of the URI strings used by the LMS frontend. For instance if you use Apache frontend then some of the images will not be displayed unless you specify the override `AllowEncodedSlashes NoDecode` in the server config. gordonb3's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=71050 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=11 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] https connection to LMS ?
Apparently, with newer version of chrome, it must remember the response to the conflict (which is to go insecurely and override the need for https), because it is now not stopping but running as it should. Since I am behind my router, and within my lan, this should not be a security issue. I also found a LMS front-end that looked interesting and is designed just for this problem here: https://hub.docker.com/r/jgoerzen/logitech-media-server. I was thinking about trying this. Has anyone here tried this ? At least I now understand why LMS remains using http since the hardware (in my case a squeezebox-2) requires it. Once again constrained by the abandonment of the product by Logitech after purchasing from slimserver leaving the customer base. I like the logitech mice, but disdain what they did here. They could update the firmware to fix. freelsjd's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4344 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=11 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Touch not connecting
Let's start with a little more information... >From your post, you have two players (each a touch) and Picoreplayer (as an LMS server only? Or, as a third player?) Are the touch's connected via ethernet or wifi? When you say one "won't connect" can you explain? Won't connect to LMS? Are both touches listed in the routers connected devices? When you go to the LMS UI, do you see both touches as players you can select? A few things to try: 1) Make sure you are doing a factory reset of the badly behaving Touch. Press the little button on the back until you get a reset message, or go to settings->advanced->factory reset->continue 2) If the non connecting touch is on wifi, try on ethernet 3) If both touches are ethernet, try swapping them, see if the problem follows the player. If one is ethernet, the other wifi, try swapping as well 4) try swapping power supplies. They can be failing and still "work" 5) Reboot pcP, reboot router 6) give us a little more info :) Jim Redrum's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=33806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=115560 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
