Another cheap option, and what I use, is Raspberry-Pi using Max2play.

LMS Server uses port 3483 for the SlimProto client protocol, which
players use to communicate with the server.  This is not configurable. 
You can configure the LMS http and telnet port numbers on LMS.  These
ports can be used by controllers/web browsers to actually control the
players.  Squeezelite-X provides both the player and controller
functions and allows you to specify the Http and telnet port numbers to
match what you have configured on your LMS server.  It is available on
the Windows Store for Windows 10 platforms and there is a legacy
installer for Windows 7 and later.  Go here for more info on
Squeezelite-X.

If using Squeezelite-X in a "remote" configuration using port
forwarding, you will need to forward ports 3483, the http port (usually
9000) and the telnet port (usually 9090) to get it to work.

I do this but in LMS I turn on blocking and only allow defined IP
addresses.  And I have a separate dedicated LMS server running on a
raspberry pi for this purpose.

It was me that started this thread. The album in question was recorded
at a very low level and "seemed" not to be obeying the RG tags when the
player (SB3) was at fixed volume. However the player was part of a Group
created through "Group Players" plugin where there was another player
also involved but I didn't test it on its own.

I will set another single player with 100% Fixed Volume and run the
offending album through it as part of a playlist and advise. The sound
level of the recording is so low that it will be immediately obvious but
I can't do it until later.

I have never known it not to work. I believe this is just a coincidence
with this particular album, where the extremely low recording level
would induce clipping when boosted to the reference level, which is
something that ReplayGain doesn't do by default. In Foobar2K this
behaviour can be circumvented, don't rightly know about it in LMS.
