I can't seem to connect at all. With this application or squeezedroid-beta.
I'm on an sgs3, going over wifi. I have 3 pcs working over the network
without issue. No firewall app installed. Android 4.1.1, stock, not rooted.

If your Logitech Media Server (SqueezeboxServer) is using the standard port
(9090) and is not password protected, then Squeezer can find your server
automatically. From the menu select Settings, Server Address, and press
Start scan.

If the server is not using the standard port you can specify the port
number as part of the server's address, separated by a colon.
Eg, if your server is 192.168.1.2 and the port number is 9092, use this:
192.168.1.2:9092

Currently Squeezer does not support password protected servers, this will
come in a future version.

There is no password. It found the server without issue. And I'm on the
standard ports.

Well then the problem must be somewhere else.
I need to know more, to be able to help. Can you describe what happens when
you try to connect, and what you expect.
If you can attach some screenshots, it will be a great help.

It says connecting for a few seconds then says 'connection failed. Check
settings.' ad infinitum. I suppose I should also mention that I can use the
web interface on port 9000 over chrome on my phone without issue.

What you describe is indeed a connection issue, and since you can connect
to the web-interface on the phone, your network and server should be fine.

My guess is that it is some setting in the server, which causes the
problem, so here are a few hints.

The port 9000 you mention is the http port.
Squeezer connects through the SqueezeboxServers command line interface
(CLI). The standard CLI port is 9090, and can be changed by the
web-interface. See the attached screenshot. If you have a telnet program
installed on a computer, you can test the CLI connection like the example
on the second screenshot.

Note that Squeezer also uses the http port (to fetch album-art), but the
http-port number is fetched automatically by Squeezer, once a CLI
connection is made. So there is no setting in Squeezer for the http port.

Welp. I'm a dumbass. I already am using port 9090 on my server which
obviously causes issues. Figures I'd run into this problem eventually. I
guess I'll throw my support behind making changing ports an option for
squeezer.
