SoundBridge m1001 VS Firefly svn-1515

[w1ll14m]

I have a problem, my soundbridge (Pinnacle) can’t find Firefly media server (Mt-daapd svn-1515)

I’ve tried avahi, and howl, both work with daap (with a java client).
Now i’m so desperate i even tried the windows version of firefly.
i have a daap client that can find firefly, soundbridge just won’t :(.

What can i do ?

Regards,
William

Check your plugins_dir in your config file and make sure that directory has a “rsp.so” in it. Then maybe crank your log file up to a higher level and watch your debug logs and make sure it loads the rsp.so, and that it says it registers _rsp._tcp.

Are the server and the soundbridge split across wired/wireless segments? Can you connect the soundbridge wired to see if it see it (at least as a test)?

Ok,

I was using soundbridge over a wired network 🙂
And this is the output of mDNSBrowse:

My soundbridge is a pinnacle one, is that a problem?

What firmware version is on the Soundbridge? You need at least 2.5.171 on it to be able to use RSP.

That’s a good point, as everything else looks good. The mdns response is exactly right, should see it just fine.

You can ping the soundbridge from the server machine, right?

Ok, i got it working:

I moved soundbridge closer to my pc,
for debugging. And it worked instant.
So i moved it back to my bedroom, and it stopped working again ?!

Let me explain a little of my network situation.
I have a computer as router –> main switch –> switch bedroom and switch living room.

In the bedroom I can watch winamp tv via wired network, soundbridge can play internet radio and i can telnet soundbridge.

So finaly i replaced the UTP between main switch and bedroom switch.
Now rsp works on soundbridge too 🙂

I Would never have guessed it if I didn’t moved my soundbridge….

Wow. Guess it’s at least working. 🙂
