Perhaps you could ask Ralphy in the JiveLite thread in these forums, https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?98156-Announce-JiveLite-cut-down-squeezebox-control-application if there is any way to force JiveLite to always use the eth0 192.168.1.23 IP as the LMS server and never the wireless IP? Assuming you compiled from the Github sources, Ralphy's fork, and not from Googlecode archive (Triode's original sources). BTW, it seems as JiveLite only communicates with the LMS server and the LMS server then controls the Squeezelite player software. There seems to be no direct connection between JiveLite and Squeezelite. This explains why you only loose control ability on the local display of the PI3B+, but never on the PC/laptop browser to the LMS web gui. LMS listens on all interfaces, if wlan fails it doesn't matter for the eth0 traffic. However, JiveLite chooses one interface for communication with LMS and sticks with that. Besides, JiveLite seem to prefer the wlan, perhaps because that is the only network route which can provide DNS replies. (You could, as a test for this speculation, setup a small DNS server elsewhere on your network just to provide replies, a small footprint caching DNS will be fine. Then start the PI3B+ without the hotspot available and see what gives - check the JiveLite configs for LMS server IP etc.) 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
