    Hi,

    i’m using the max2play-server(Raspi) with a 10″waveshare display in my living room. I have two clients in other rooms. Is it possible to connect a display to a client a operate the server(!) from there.

    I know I can operate it with Squeezer via smartphone, but this is not what i want.

    Can you help me?

    best regards

    Thorsten

    Hi Thorsten,

    In theory, you can control the server from any computer or smartphone in the home network – even from another Raspberry Pi. With Jivelite, our desktop visualization for the Squeezebox Server, you can control every player in your home network, regardless of whether the server is running on the same device or not. Jivelite works in a similar way to the web interface of the Squeezebox Server: You first select the player you want to control and then you can set the playback for this player. So you can add a display to your second Pi without any problems and control your players with it, just like on the Pi you already have.
