hi. I've tried to setup Airplayer on a dreambox, using the vlc 3rdpartybackend. when i try to start airplay, I just get:

python airplayer.py

2011-07-04 00:25:59 [INFO] Starting Airplayer 2011-07-04 00:25:59 [DEBUG] TEMP DIR: /tmp/tmpedBiFa Started connection to VLC Traceback (most recent call last): File "airplayer.py", line 221, in main() File "airplayer.py", line 217, in main raise e socket.gaierror: [Errno 3] invalid value for ai_flags.

do you have any hints? thanks in advance

Seems like a permission issue with opening a port. Is port your settings.AIRPLAYER_PORT (defaults to 6002) taken or something? Do you have permissions to open that port?

Port is not in use. Started as Root and tried different ports
