I suspected it wouldn’t by the nature of the setting label as well as the helper text, which reads “Allow this backend to receive connections from any IP address on the internet. NOT recommended for most users. Use this only if you have secure IPv4 and IPv6 firewalls.” That tells me that built into mythbackend is the restriction to not accept connections from devices on any subnet except the x.y.z.0 subnet on which the backend resides. Also, all my frontend machines are on the same subnet as the backend and any machine trying to airplay to a frontend, so that’s definitely not it.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">I did just notice in the frontend log before I even attempted to airplay to it that there are several lines similar to my error lines:</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><div style="margin: 0px; font-size: 11px; line-height: normal; font-family: Menlo;" class=""><span style="font-variant-ligatures: no-common-ligatures" class="">Listening on TCP 0.0.0.0:5000</span></div><div style="margin: 0px; font-size: 11px; line-height: normal; font-family: Menlo;" class=""><span style="font-variant-ligatures: no-common-ligatures" class="">2018-01-29 21:09:21.395688 I AirPlay: Created airplay objects.</span></div><div style="margin: 0px; font-size: 11px; line-height: normal; font-family: Menlo;" class=""><span style="font-variant-ligatures: no-common-ligatures" class="">2018-01-29 21:09:21.396331 I Listening on TCP 0.0.0.0:5100</span></div><div style="margin: 0px; font-size: 11px; line-height: normal; font-family: Menlo;" class=""><span style="font-variant-ligatures: no-common-ligatures" class="">2018-01-29 21:09:21.396736 E Failed listening on TCP [::]:5000 - Error 10: Protocol type not supported</span></div></div><div style="margin: 0px; font-size: 11px; line-height: normal; font-family: Menlo;" class=""><span style="font-variant-ligatures: no-common-ligatures" class=""><br class=""></span></div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal;" class="">and now I’m thinking it’s something in the configuration of the frontend, OR there is a problem in the compilation of the frontend code (which I did not compile).</div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal;" class=""><br class=""></div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal;" class="">I’m wondering if anyone else can verify if airplay audio to a v29 frontend functions.
