Hi guys,
I have started with a fresh image of max2play with default settings but am still getting the same error as I was before.
Kodi is running and visible on the TV but I cannot access it via any method. Yatse or Kore app cannot see it, I cannot access it via the web interface at port 8080 and the CEC is not working so I cannot change any settings (presumably I would need to in order for Yatse etc to work?)

Any suggestions please?

FYI I am running Squeezebox server on a raspberry pi with a HiFiberry setup.

You may be in a catch 22 condition.
My max2play Kodi installation had services->control->Allow remote control via HTTP turned off by default.
You will need to turn it on to use a Kodi remote controller app
If it is off, how can you turn it on with a remote controller app?

#use ssh to connect and login as pi
cd /home/pi/.kodi/userdata
# create a back up of your guisettings.xml file
# i.e. „cp guisettings.xml guisettings.xml_orig“

# edit the guisettings.xml file to turn on the webserver
# do not change anything else!
nano guisettings.xml
change the line:
<setting id=“services.webserver“ default=“true“>false</setting>
to:
<setting id=“services.webserver“>true</setting>

you will need to restart Kodi to turn it on.
