I installed the AirPlay bridge on my new Ubuntu server. I didn't have to
do anything, it worked right out of the box. That's quite a different
experience from what I'm used to from my NAS installation. The only
thing was that I had to enable a player manually -after- renaming it
(that umlaut-thing I mentioned).
If I may make a suggestion:
At the moment, the players get their LMS name based on a MAC address
(the BBB... one, I think). I don't know how it works with other devices,
but with Sonos speakers, it looks like this:
Code:
--------------------
"Küche aa:aa:aa:aa:aa:aa BBBBBBBBBBBB@Küche._raop._tcp.local
Sonos-BBBBBBBBBBBB"
--------------------
If other devices also announce their given name (like "Küche" in this
example) in the AirPlay bridge, what about using that name instead of
the MAC address? Not a big thing, really, but they get a name assigned
anyway.
