| Summary | 0018186: Casting different music to different Chromecast devices | ||||
| Description | User at this forum post: https://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=99693 is trying to use multiple instances of MM for casting different music to different Chromecast devices. This currently does not work though, because every MM instance is trying to run the server on the same port (showing the message that server has failed to run due to port already in use). This could be easily workarounded as we are already starting invisible server for casting purposes (whenever the configured/default server fails to run or is disabled). We just need to ensure that it is started on different port for each MM instance (which currently isn't the case). | ||||

Fixed in 5.0.2.2500 Test note: the second instance still reports that it fails to run the _default_ server (because of port already in use by another instance), but it runs the "invisible" server with another port => so casting from multiple instances works fine now. |

Verified 2504 Silent port change if defined is in use works. Tested on Two simultaneous starts of MM5, each casting to different device. |
