So, I’m trying to set up a multi-room audio with multiple old Android
phones running squeezeplayer, and I’m having sync issues. LMS is running
on a Synology diskstation DS214+. Devices are a Samsung Galaxy Exhibit
II 4g, a Samsung Galaxy S, a Samsung Galaxy Epic 4G, and a Samsung
Galaxy S3, each plugged into its own amp/speakers. Is there any way to
tell which is the “problem” device? So far, I’m starting out just trying
to sync 2 (like Exhibit and Galaxy S, or Exhibit and Epic). I’d prefer
not to have to go through every possible combination (especially if the
problem is something else, like network).
Do you think it would help if I set up a second wifi access point with
a unique SSID that’s only used by the music players? Or should this not
make a difference?
I’ve actually got Cat-5 near each of the amps, so if there’s a better
way of going about this hardwired with different devices (cheaply
priced), please let me know. I picked up some old android phones
(cracked screens, who cares), for pretty cheap, and each works
individually with the LMS just fine. Only the sync is a problem.

Do you think it would help to wipe off the stock Android software on
these and load up something stripped down like Cyanogenmod? Is there a
particular Android version that might be better than others (i.e., Froyo
vs. Gingerbread vs. ICS, vs Kit Kat)?

Thanks for your advice.
