[QUOTE="evilking, post: 1059236, member: 91866"] Hi guys, Can you please help me out setting up ampDroid with MPextended please? I've been trying for 3 days straight now and although it seemed to work at first, it now will only randomly connect. The behaviour is as follows: - When opening up ampdroid the connected-button will flash very rapidly from red to green and back. At the same time I see my switch's port (where MP is connected to) light up. So its definetely doing something. After a while the flashing stops and I have no connection. - When then trying to connect Ampdroid to the MPE service, I immediately get a "could not connect to service" error. As if the system a) isnt even trying or b) is rejected at the first try. - When opening up the WifiRemote config (which seems to come with MPE?) I then get an error saying "this port is already in use". I don't understand this message, does it mean the port is being used now (e.g. there is a connection) or does it mean there is another service on that port? I wouldn't understand the latter because I have configured MPE and WifiRemote to use the same ports (tried both the defaul 8017 and 4322), and when the setup was workin (Which I have seen!) it did not show this error. - The problem seems to occur as soon as I reboot my HTPC, as if the connection is then forgotten or something.... Furthermore, when I go to the Troubleshooting links from MPExtended, my browser always asks for a password? Which I assume is the Authentication password i set because that seems to work. However, when I set "no authentication" the prompt still appears but then I can just fill in anything and it will accept it. I do not have this behavior on another PC at home which I used to test it (Same config on MPE, WifiRemote and Ampdroid). Finally, I have been able to give access (when things were actually working) to the MPE service from the prompt, but as I said, when rebooting the HTPC amproid immediately runs into a wall when requesting the access again. So my main questions are - how can it be that the setup works fine one minute and not the other? - Do I actually have to use WifiRemote together with MPE and if so, do the ports have to be the same or not? Also, do the TV and Media ports configured in Ampdroid have to be all 3 the same? Because I have had things working with the Remote on 8017 and the rest on 4322 like it does by default? What I am somehow expecting is that ampdroid runs into the password prompt (see above), which it can't pass even thought the credentials provided are correct. I know they are correct because I have not altered these in Amproid; only played around with the port numbers. So, the config which first worked and then not: - Port 8017 on both MPE and WifiRemote - Authentication: <HTPC> and pw <xxxxxxxxxx>, identical for WifiRemote and MPE Can you please help me out and maybe point out what I'm doing wrong? I feel I'm 99% there and have seen everything work, but I'd hate to have to switch to XBMC over this..... [/QUOTE]
