Only one of the players in the list below is a true Logitech hardware device.
It doesn't make sense however to do this. If you can only connect a non-Logitech player to mysqueezebox.com via the Music Source selection on LMS, you still need to run a local LMS server. And then it has no added value to connect the player to mysqueezebox.com.Last edited by CJS; 2023-01-27, 21:46.| LMS 8.3.2 on Linux Mint | Squeezebox Boom | RPi0W + pCP 8.2.0 + HiFiBerry DAC Zero | SqueezeAMP | ESP Muse Luxe |

But indeed, when selecting mysqueezebox.com via LMS interface > Home > Extras > Music Source, my piCorePlayer did connect to mysqueezebox.com, and I could use the Remote Control on mysqueezebox to control my pCP (and btw I needed to reboot my pCP to connect to LMS again).

Gentlemen, I also use a browser and files on my NAS on a daily basis, or I run it via the Squeezer application on my phone, but I am, so to speak, "another person" - what does it mean? - I explain: my assumptions are as follows ... if someone somewhere, something, once placed it, then it is made to work and help people, regardless of whether it is a button in the car (e.g. seat heating) or like thuja has this is where you connect your player and control it from your account. I know it's not always needed, but when it is - it's supposed to work! - that's who I am and well - I know it's weird for some people, but that's how I am. It often turns out that I am right and it works, you just need to know how to do it. There are not always instructions and not always clearly written.
Thanks again for your involvement and your help, especially Kidstypike you, it was your screenshot and suggestions that guided me how to do it.
