127 server address on Rpi4

[ryder42]

Hi!

I have gotten the JellyCon client for Kodi installed on an RPi4.  When searching for my local server, the client is returning a 127.0.0.1:8096 IP address that it can't connect to.  I have manually entered my local IP of my server but it won't take.  Not sure what the problem is.  I have the RPi4 on a network switch.

The Pi itself seems to be communicating fine on the network, I can ping its 192.168 address fine.  I can also access my server from a different computer on my local network.  So not sure if it's a networking issue with the Pi or a setting in the client.

Thanks!

Can you ping the Jellyfin server from the Pi?

I did as you suggested, and I attached a screenshot of the results.  It didn't time out or fail to reach a connection, it just keep repeating these sequences.  I forgot to mention I installed batocera and then used the Kodi side for the Jellyfin add-on.

I think there must be some network setting in batocera that is causing this failure for the Jellycon to get out to the server.

Thanks

This is the Kodi error log:

"kodicon failed to establish a new connection (errno 111) connection refused"

I was able to "login" to my jellyfin server via kodi by adding the 8096 suffix to the ipaddress (which I previously didn't do).  The quick connect seemed to work, but when I tried to search my media in Kodicon I got a "http response error 401b".  Kodicon is visible from my server dashboard (see screenshot) so I'm not sure what the issue is now.  I still cannot ping the server from batocera (see previous post).

Thanks

The user "Jellycon" does show up in my server dashboard, but there is no IP address assigned (see screenshot).

For some reason the batocera/kodi/rpi is not sending out network information.  Seems mostly likely it's a network setting on the rpi software.
