Raspi and Desktop both with AirPlayer

#1 Post by chefpilot »

I have the following setup:
- Using AirManager on my Laptop for programming instruments and setup the different AirPlayers
- first Desktop with xplane11 and AirPlayer for testing
- second Desktop with xplane 11 for flying
- raspberry PI4 with AirPlayer

I have the following "test instrument":

Code: Select all

gruen = img_add("gruen.png", 40, 30, 120, 120)
rot = img_add("rot.png", 120, 30, 120, 120)

function callback(pos)
    print("GEAR: " .. tostring(pos))
    if pos == 1 then
        visible(gruen, true)
        visible(rot, false)
    else
        visible(gruen, false)
        visible(rot, true)
	end
end

xpl_dataref_subscribe("sim/cockpit2/controls/gear_handle_down", "INT", callback)
The instrument is running fine on the Laptop and on both Desktops.
In addition it is running fine on the raspi in combination with the "Test-Desktop"
But the raspi is not talking to the "Flying-Desktop", although the raspi with AirPlayer is showing up in AirManager all the times.

I hope it is possible to understand my problem, because I have no idea to solve it!

Perhaps having installed the Air Manager Plugin on both X-Plane rig ? If this is the case, remove the AM Plugin from only the unwanted X-Plane and let the one on the targeted and expected X-Plane rig. Otherwise it could be a firewall issue between Air Manager and AM Plugin in X-Plane

Thanks for your quick response.
I played even more with the firewall settings and renewed the xplane plugin. Now everythng is working.
I do not have a clue about the final solution but I'm happy that the problem seems to be solved.
