LMS "not running" in piCorePlayer LMS on Synology

But that means that LMS is not running on the pCP itself, doesn't it? As
it's running in Docker, that's ok.

Did you forward the ports in Docker correctly?

LMS "not running" in piCorePlayer LMS on Synology

Raspberry Pi 4
piCorePlayer v8.2.0 | www v00017 | linux 5.15.35-pcpCore-v8 (64) | piCore v13.2 | Squeezelite v1.9.9-1414-pCP

Synology DS918+
Docker: Logitech Media Server Version: 8.2.0
Ports 9000 3483 UDP TCP

My piCorePlayer configuration:
LMS IP : 192.168.2.60

BothLMS en PiCoreplayer are running fine, and no log problems.

But in PiCorecore player there's still this message:
LMS is not running (red cross)

I access both websites on my computer, no problems, except Picoreplayer can't see LMS on my Synology

What can I do ?

Can you access LMS web interface from a PC on your network via port 9000?

Is all of your network on 192.168.2.xxx ?

My first suspicion would be Docker on the NAS not seeing the broadcast from the player.
You could put it in host mode (if applicable on the NAS) or tell Squeezelite the explicit IP address to use to reach LMS.

Yes, I can access LMS web interface from a PC on my network via port 9000.

My whole network is only 192.168.2.X

I tell Squeezelite the explicit IP address to use to reach LMS by this
setting: LMS IP : 192.168.2.60 (my Synology)

I wil try to put it in "host mode"...
i come back...

[Paul Webster]

If LMS is on that .60 IP address ... same as the NAS ... then I presume Docker is already in host mode ... otherwise I think it would be at a different IP address.

Setting the container in "host mode" also didn't work. I've tried this now...

I also used my container IP address: 172.17.0.1 No luck either

I to think it has something to do with the "broadcast"
maybe I'm missing a certain protocol...

But that means that LMS is not running on the pCP itself, doesn't it? As
it's running in Docker, that's ok.

I'm happy to know that, I was focused on that message.

Yes the port are forwarded one-on-one, and set in the Synology firewall.

Problem solved

It works now,

The soundcard must be the first thing to setup,
otherwise it won't work.

I put in a new SD card, set up the soundcard first and then
LMS IP : 192.168.2.60

was the problem,

thanks to all.
