Hi Pascal Hibon,

I recommend only use the MAC address if you decide to use a fake one.
>From memory, pCP1.18 correctly works out what MAC address you are using
and uses it for all it's commands. The Squeezelite MAC setting is really
only as an over-ride. I never fill in this field. If you want to test
yourself, try working out what MAC address to use if you have "both"
eth0 and wlan0 network connections.

Here's the help from the next version:


Code:
--------------------
    Cut and paste your auto start LMS command
  
  Allows you to set an auto start LMS command that is run after a "hard" power 
on. This field can contain any valid LMS CLI command. This could be handy for 
people building pseudo radios.
  
  Example:
  •randomplay tracks
  •playlist play http://stream-tx1.radioparadise.com/aac-32
  •playlist play http://radioparadise.com/m3u/aac-128.m3u
  
  Note:
  •LMS IP address must be set on Squeezelite Settings page.
  •Maximum number of characters 254.
--------------------


Note, no MAC address in LMS CLI field, pCP works that out. I will add a
note to the help.

Getting piCorePlayer working on the RPi2B is too hard for me, I leave
that for Steen.;)

regards
Greg
