Dear All,
I am using a PC with Tuneblade to stream music to my rpi 3b with libreelec 10.0.0 on it via Airblade. This shows up as "System Audio". There´ is one problem though:
If I stop libreelec from receiving the stream using Kore on Android by pressing the stop button, I can no longer connect to libreelec with Tuneblade until the rpi has been rebooted. In other words, pressing stop simply crashes or stops the service.
Now I could just stop the music by disconnecting on Tuneblade, but the thing is that sometimes if I watch a movie via libreelec, it suddenly gets interrupted when I for instance receive an email on the PC, which generates a sound that´s being sent via Airplay. Then when I start the movie again, the Airplay service has been shut down next time I want to hear music via Tuneblade, and I need to reboot the rpi.
And.. it´s actually convenient for me to get those interruptions from the email program, theyre work related, but I could of course just remember to stop the Tuneblade stream before watching movies and use my mobile instead to warn me about emails, but unfortunately also a ton of other things, that I dont want to be bothered about, when Im watching a movie.
So what Im looking for is an elegant way to restart Airplay from the shell without having to reboot. I have tried with systemctl restart avahi-daemon, but that didnt do the trick.
Any advise?
Thanks in advance!
