Hi,

I have a windows machine running LMS 7.7.2. The machine has a wireless
NIC which connects to a broadband router for internet etc. I have a
Squeezebox 3 connected via a seperate wired ethernet NIC in the same
machine.

The ethernet NIC and the Squeezebox are setup with static IP addresses
to connect to each other.

When I run the self test everything passes (including "Streaming from
Spotify") until:

"Player did not connect to helper app - check your firewall allows the
helper app to receive incoming connections from players on the helper
app port defined above"

I have unblocked spotifyd in Windows firewall.

If I run netstat I see the following output:

TCP    127.0.0.1:49742        Donnie:9000            ESTABLISHED
TCP    192.168.1.253:9005     Donnie:49741           TIME_WAIT
TCP    192.168.1.253:9005     Donnie:49744           TIME_WAIT
TCP    192.168.2.11:3483      192.168.2.10:39371     ESTABLISHED
TCP    192.168.2.11:9000      192.168.2.10:39379     ESTABLISHED
TCP    192.168.2.11:9000      Donnie:49740           TIME_WAIT
TCP    192.168.2.11:9000      Donnie:49746           TIME_WAIT


Donnie is the name of the windows machine running the server. It's two
IP addresses are:

192.168.1.253 (dynamic IP assigned by wireless broadband router to
wireless NIC in Donnie)
192.168.2.11 (static IP assigned to the wired ethernet NIC which the
squeezebox is connected to)

The squeezebox has the static IP 192.168.2.10 assigned to it.

Does it look from the netstat output that the spotify helper app is
listening on the wrong IP? I tried typing the full IP:PORTNAME address
into the advanced settings for the spotify plugin in the LMS web client
but it only saves the bare port number without the IP. Do I need to find
somehow to make the spotify helper app listen on 192.168.2.11 instead of
192.168.1.253? If so, how can I do this?



Cheers!
