Im about to send a pi to a friend in a significantly different timezone who isnt very IT literate. Remote support is going to be tricky.
The pi is going to run on WiFi but is going to act as a stand-alone player & server.
I can pre-prepare the WiFi connection with wpa_supplicant but what I cant do in advance is reserve an IP on his router and Im not sure he even knows the admin credentials.
This led me to wonder has there been any work in setting up mDNS on piCorePlayer? I know there are drawbacks but there are also upsides.
