I have a problem with the connection of my Android Squeezebox control app with the Squeezebox Server. Whenever I want to connect my „Squeezer“ app with the Squeezebox Server, the message „Login failed“ is shown, although the server was found (correct IP). This happens also with other apps, but my Squeezebox Touch has no problems to connect to the Squeezebox Server. Also, it is possible to control the Server via web administration panel.
I have installed the following max2play plugins:
Hifiberry
Audioplayer
Einstellungen/Reboot
WLAN & LAN
Squeezebox Server
Dateisystem Mount
Kodi/XBMC
Hi manu,
You do not need an additional plugin, the control with an app like squeezer should always be possible if you are able to reach the webinterface. Which version of the SBS do you have installed? Did you try out the 7.9 nightly? Also, have you tried accessing the web interface from your smartphone, maybe the connectivity of the phone hinders the apps connection.
now it works: The problem was, that port 9090 is default for the command line interface (CLI). But this port is probably also used by another application (Kodi?). Now I changed the CLI port number (in Squeezebox Server Webadministration panel) and also in my Android apps.
