Look at the commandline for starting Squeezelite. If no server is specified Squeezelite searches for a server via the network and of course the LMS server replies via the network interface it received the call on. >From the Squeezelite man-page: Code: -------------------- -s <server>[:<port>] Connect to the specified Logitech Media Server, otherwise uses automatic discovery to find server on the local network. This option should only be needed if automatic discovery does not work, or the server is not on the local network segment (e.g. behind a router). -------------------- Try to tell Squeezelite to attach to localhost since they both reside on the same PI3B+, by adding parameter Code: -------------------- -s localhost -------------------- on the commandline to start Squeezelite. 2 Touch, 1 Picoreplayer 4.0.0 on RaspBerry 3B with 7" display LMS latest nightly on Ubuntu 18.04.1 on Intel Core2 Duo E4500 @ 2.20GHz, 2GB All wired ------------------------------------------------------------------------ BosseJ's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=67378 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109789 _______________________________________________ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
