Air Player Raspberry Pi and Knobster Issues

#1 Post by mauzin »

I am a new user and I am having trouble with Air Player Raspberry Pi 4.0 seeing my Knobster. The Knobster is seen on my Windows Air Manger 4.0 and on my Windows Air Player 4.0 but not on the Pi. Any help with diagnostics would be helpful. Here is what I am seeing in the logs.

pi@raspberrypi:~/AirPlayerProgram $ sudo ./AirPlayerPi4

Hi Michael,


Just had a look at this issue, the same problem is also present in Desktop Linux.

Luckily, I managed to fix it. In about 2-3 weeks I am planning on releasing an update to AM 4.0 and AP 4.0 with a bunch of fixes and improvements, this will also include this fix. The pi should update itself when the release is done.


Sorry for the inconvenience,

Corjan

Has the fix for this issue been released yet? My Raspberry Pi still appears to be running AP 4.0.

Regards,

Greg
