Hello, I just installed the 3rd-party Spotify plugin by Triode and am receiving the following message on the last step of the Self Test: "Player did not connect to helper app - check your firewall allows the helper app to receive incoming connections from players on the helper app port defined above." Here are my system specs:
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, SP1 Logitech Media Server version 7.7.3 - 1375965195 (Server HTTP Port Number 9000) Squeezebox Touch Firmware: 7.7.3-r16676 Ugh. I HATE dealing with the Windows firewell, ports, etc. as I am far from an advanced user. That being said, I have fiddled around with the "Windows Firewall with Advanced Security" dialog before to get my SB Touch to work with LMS in the first place, but I need detailed instructions from someone who knows exactly which settings to delete and/or change. Currently, under Inbound Rules there are two entries for "spotifyd," which I assume is Triode's plugin. On the "Protocols and Ports" tab for the first entry, the Protocol Type is set to UDP, and both Local port and Remote port is set to "All Ports." On the same tab for the second entry, Protocol Type is set to TCP, and again both Local and Remote ports are set to "All Ports." I understand that the Helper App Port on the plugin settings page on the LMS Server Settings says 9005, but how does this relate to how I should set up the Windows Firewall? Perhaps this has been covered before but I couldn't find anything after searching the forums. If anyone can help me out with this I'd greatly appreciate it! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Paradiddle's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=62628 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=101092 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
