The mp3 issue is due to the fact that your basic installation does not include "mad" shared library. The non-static version of the bridge relies on shared libraries for codec. At startup, it tries to load them and only enables the codec for the ones found, even if you have set "mp3" in the codec list. The static version has *everything* built-in but the price to pay is a much bigger binary and no update of the codecs. For the startup issue, it feels as said by somebody else that when the bridge is started, then the IP address is not available yet. I would need a server log and a bridge log LMS 7.9 on Pi 3B+ & Odroid-C2 - *SqueezeAMP!*, 5xRadio, 3xBoom, 4xDuet, 1xTouch, 1 SB3.
