I am struggling to get Jivelite to work on a Pi 3B+ with a standard
touchscreen under 5.0.1.  I am running what I think is a fully updated
system (10.1pCP, PCP 5.0.1, and Squeezelite 1.9.2-1166-pCP).  As far as
I remember, this all worked fine on the same device in 4.1.1. 

The wrinkle in my system is that I am connecting the touchscreen device
to a remote LMS through a VPN connection (using openvpn), and I think
there may be an issue between the IP address assigned to the device by
the remote VPN server (192.168.26.XX) and the IP address that is
assigned to the device by the router at the remote location
(192.168.50.XX).  

The system works normally without Jivelite installed, with play
controlled either by the LMS web page or by the Squeeze Ctrl app.  After
installing Jivelite (using the "Tweaks" tab), however, the touchscreen
goes to the language selection screen and the skins selection screen as
usual, but at that point it seems to have trouble "locating players". 
(BTW, I have several Squeezebox/PCP players in the location where the
LMS is running, and one other PCP player without a touchscreen at the
remote location.  All of those devices are running fine, although I
haven't updated the PCP players at the LMS site beyond 4.1.1.)

For what it's worth I am using different subnets for the remote LAN
(192.168.50.X) and for the LAN where the LMS is located (192.168.25.X),
but none of the different addresses seems to cause any problems until I
add Jivelite to my touchscreen device.  One other bit of information
that may be helpful is that when I hover over the different PCP player
tabs on the PCP web page, the players that are local to the LMS show the
router-assigned IP addresses (192.168.25.XX), whereas the devices remote
to the LMS show the VPN server-assigned IP addresses (192.168.26.XX). 
Clicking on the tab for a remote device fails, since the browser can
only access the device at the router address (192.168.50.XX) not at the
VPN address (192.168.26.XX).  

Any suggestions for what may be going wrong with Jivelite?  Does it need
functional IP addresses to find the players?  If so, is there a way to
configure those manually?

By the way, thanks much for developing such a great system!
