So basically I have to manually bridge each room. In my config file I tried to set the entire VenueServer to only use a range of ports, then I entered ports for the rooms I wanted to configure statically. But I still came across that "Address already in use" problem.
For example, I have the VenueServer set to 5000-5200 and 4 Venues to 5202 on up. Michael Braitmaier said: > I am doing basically the same.
