I have piCorePlayer running with a hifiberry, running headless. I couldn't be more pleased. Donation shortly. I do have some questions. I'd like to write a custom GUI app that runs on the pi. Before I slap something together with python/tkinter, I'd like to make sure there's no tricks involved

Reason why I asked about jumbo frames and MTU is because I had a sort of similar problem a few years ago with a NAS that was activating such jumbo frames when it should have not. But that was probably an old buggy stack. I know it’s mainly a discussion with you and @bpa now :) but it seems to me
