I see that this message is in a string that I initiated. And I think I understand that it is me who titled this ‚No Available Versions, „LMS-Version Does Not Exist“‚ But I will reply from my notes, which somewhat disagree.

In my notes, my problem was an error message saying „cannot locate server.“

And my solution was to set my Raspberry Pi address to 192.168.0.103 (the port was set to 9000 without interaction on my part) and then enter that address into my remote control program, Orange Squeeze.

For Max2Play, in the m2p interface, WiFi/LAN tab, find “Fixed LAN-IP Setup” to set this address.

The rest of this message may or may not be of value….

On the Raspberry Pi, if a reboot is required, disconnecting and reconnecting power does not reset the state as desired, because much of the state information is on the SD card, which is nonvolatile. I had max2play require a reboot after its first two years of operation and again three years later. This is pretty good performance, except that rebooting is so terribly hard. (By contrast, when I used piCorePlayer instead of Max2Play, rebooting was required 4 times in a 7 month period.) My solution is to make a clone of the SD card containing Max2Play after I have the system running. The next time a reboot is required, I clone the clone for backup and install the cloned SD card.
