Strange address in Slingbox_server command line

[barbill28]

Gerry, Frst I'd like to thank you for all the work you've put into this, much appreciated.

I've been using your SlingServer since before they shutdown the online servers. I'm running on a Windows 11 Pro. There has been a strange address (25.77.154.182) in the Slingbox_server command line that I haven't been able to figure out where it's coming from and believe it was there before the latest 4.0 & 4.01 updates. It's a British address and just seems a bit strange. It's not in the config.ini and was hoping you could bring some light on this. Also, looks like I'm getting a double Port (32450) under the remote configuration in the command line (Streamer Running: 10 config.ini SLINGBOX 32450 32450 8388608) and it makes me add that additional port at the end of the remote http address ex: (http://192.168.200.100:32450/Remote/32450) or it won't connect. I believe that may only happen when using the HTML remote but it's been a long time since I used a .txt file I can't be sure. Maybe it's something in the HTML file but I'm not familiar with it so keep my hands off. Also, I don't have any problems internally but when I travel away, the sound will start to breakup and have to hit pause/play to pause and then again to restart to correct. Usually lasts 15-20min and then have to repeat. The remote location has 200MB down and 6MBup. I use VLC for the stream both locally and externally. The slingbox is connected directly to my router and I have GB up/down through FIOS. Below I'll include the Config.ini as well as my server command line:

Config.ini:

;sbtype="240"

;uncomment the next lines ipaddress and port with your local network info
;if you don't want the server to automatically find your

;not on the same LAN segment. Also removes requirement for the netifaces module
;ipaddress=192.168.200.120
;port=5201

;Replace with your finderid, If and only if you need remote access and don't
;have a static ip and you plan on using my service to access you server remotely.
;Please read the release notes. Most people don't need this.

;If you've got more than one slingbox set name. THe server will use this when generating
;logs to make it easier to see what's going on.

; If you don't set this, the code will use the last configured input
; I recommend setting this value. If not set correctly, you'll often only see a black screen.

25.77.154.182 is the IP address of an interface on your PC. Open a command prompt and type ipconfig to list all your interfaces.

SOB! Never thought to check that. I use Hamachi and it's the interface for that. A bit embarrassing since I worked in the IT field for many years. I retired 3yrs ago and it's amazing how fast I've forgotten stuff. Once again, Thanks!
