Have you installed and played with the "Group Players" plugin as I
suggested ?
AFAIK The "sync" command does the job of syncing players together but I
think it is tedious using CLI.  My thoughts are that if you use the
Group Players plugin so that you predefine groups of players to be
synced and then you can start playing on a group player and so let the
plugin sync the players for you.

I was saying I wasn't seeing anything in the Command Iine interface page
that mentioned what command a player would have to send to the server to
synchronize it with the rest of the players.

The benefit of asking complicated questions in a single line is always a
good startingpoint of a very long thread.:mad:

To automated this you need to first identify all the manual steps and
then go through the CLI ref to find the CLI command that does the step.

I don't use it but I think you may find the Groups plugin will help
automate syncing all the players see
https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?108558-ANNOUNCE-Group-Players

Install it and play with it first and see what steps are needed.

You may need to consider whether the script is best on the LMS server or
each of the players if there are multiple players with variations of
this startup script.

I was planning on just putting a startup.sh script on the desktop of the
pi putting a line to get it to auto sync any new players and then play a
track

There are many ways to control LMS from scripts.  Most use the Command
Line Interface of LMS usually on port 9090.

Depending on your skills and available commands on your Pi - you can use
telnet, netcat or any other app which can "talk" on a TCP connection.

The command line is documented on yoru LMS server  LMS WebUI Help /
Technical Information / The Logitech Media Service Command Line
Interface

Use Google with the initial term "site:forums.slimdevices.com" to search
the slimdevices forums as it is much better than the forum's own search
facility.
