Hello Heiner,
That was indeed part of the problem. I installed the display on the main pi (the one with the squeezebox-server). Later I installed the RPI-Display Plugin and selected the Display-after that the display showed the linux boot-process, went to a black screen with a cursor – but it did not start any services like webserver, squeezebox-server, etc. so i did not get any chance to activate jivelite etc.
I disconnected the display now and did not try it again. Do you have any idea why it did not boot any further?
Best regards

it is a typical Speedport-Telekom Home Router. I double checked, if there is a device with the same ip-address, but there isn’t. I tried to change the addresses because i wanted the pis to be further back in the ip-address range. The pies are all at: 192.168.2.240-250.
Never mind, I will upgrade to a FritzBox soon, lets see if the problem stays after the transition.
best regards

I tried it – but didnt have time to play around with it in detail.
I found the Material skin for SlimServer which is just perfect for all my needs.
It works perfectly on my phone, tablet, and PC, is responsive and user-friendly.
Since I found it – i try to control everything with it.best regards
Gregor14. Januar 2019 at 14:57 #43585Alright. The limitation is clear and I can live with that – i have to swap the pi with the lms in the living area to have better bluetooth reception which is no problem 🙂 Thank you for the great work and the input.
best regards
GregorPS: I have now seen that not only me made a thread with the same request (Airplay functionality in Andorid). Maybe you could write a sticky thread with the explaination that android does not have this functionality (except for rooted devices with an additional app).
12. Januar 2019 at 10:18 #43548I switched to max2play from volumio. There was a plugin to get hardware-buttons on the pi through GPIO Pins to Start/Pause/Volume+/Volume-/Next Track/Previous Track. Maybe this is already implemented but I couldnt find it so far. That functionality would be very nice.
best regards
Gregor11. Januar 2019 at 14:51 #43504Hi Heiner,
thank you for your quick answer. The UPNP functionality ist great – but it does not compare with the airplay capability. Many Apps that I use do not have built in casting-functionality and i often start watching netflix oder youtube on my phone / tablet and then decide to output this audio-signal to a bluetooth headset or bluetooth speakers. It would be great to stream the audio-output to the m2p appliances in my rooms „on-the-fly“. I am aware that this is a first-world-problem and a great deal of lazyness involved – but it bothers me that my android devices lack the feature compared to the apple-devices of my wife 🙂
Is it possible to enable multiple bluetooth to LMS bridges on different devices? I think i read, that only the LMS-Appliance can use the BT2LMS Bridge and that i cannot have multiple LMS instances in my network, is this correct? Or is there a way to put a BT-Dongle in all 7 PIs and name the bluetooth-item in my LMS-favorite list according to the room it is located? That way i could connect to the room I am in via bluetooth and sync the audio in the rooms i want.
Regarding my side-question: Sorry – it was written all over the place but I just didnt see it.
Thx for your time and effort
best regards
