Description Jacob Weber 2005-12-09 18:58:46 UTC

If I go to Server Settings > Network and change the web server port number to something like 9300, the SqueezeBox (original wireless model) will no longer play audio. The port is not in use by any other application, and switching it back to 9000 fixes things.

While it's set to 9300, the web interface works correctly on that port. The SqueezeBox doesn't report any errors, and there's nothing unusual in the slimserver.log. It acts like it's playing, but no sound comes out of either the digital optical port or the headphone port. It also seems to continue playing past the end of the song, so the counter keeps advancing even when the track is over.

Also, if you click Web Access in the Mac Preferences panel, it always goes to port 9000, even if you've changed the port.

Dean - any thoughts?

Comment 3 Blackketter Dean 2005-12-26 15:12:46 UTC

What kind of player is this?  Squeezebox 1 or Squeezebox 2/3?

Comment 4 Jacob Weber 2005-12-26 15:51:21 UTC

Squeezebox 1

Comment 5 Dan Sully 2006-01-28 15:49:26 UTC

Dean - thoughts?

I looked at the PrefPane - it's hardcoded to 9000. Not sure how to go about fixing that.

Comment 6 Chris Owens 2006-08-16 20:04:24 UTC

Okay we're splitting this bug up.  This one will be the fact that the SB1 can't connect to port 9300.   Low chance of it being fixed, I'm afraid.  If there's much interest, users should vote or add their addresses to the CC: field to let us know.

The fact that the Mac pref pane 'web access' button always tries to connect to port 9000 has been moved to bug 3940.

Comment 7 Blackketter Dean 2006-08-22 11:43:06 UTC

This is the SB1 portion of the bug.  Not going make it for 6.5

Comment 8 Blackketter Dean 2007-10-22 16:44:15 UTC

Alas, we can't fix this for SB1.
