Does someone have experience with #linkplay modules? Got a linkplay A31 v04 to pimp an old radio, but can't connect with WiFi. Seems modern Browsers don't accept the certificate anymore...

Seems I might fail getting #Owntone to stream reliably over #Airplay to the #AudioPro Drumfire. The A10s are fine, but the Drumfire cuts out every few seconds. It's about a meter from the nearest AP so it's definitely not signal strength related. Streaming using AudioPro's own app is fine, but it propably uses the native API.

Here's the thing. The Drumfire also has an ethernet port - but connecting that up results in pure chaos. It will randomly (and often) switch which of the interfaces (ethernet, wifi) has which of the two Mac addresses, and the corresponding internal API id. This causes Owntone to not be able to stream reliably to it at all.

Again, the AudioPro app is fine though (and I just need to tell arpwatch in the router to disregard any shenanigans from those addresses).

I guess the proper solution would be to add support for the #LinkPlay API to Owntone. Oh joy.
