Anybody tried to run this on WIFI instead over Ethernet ?

[cpietsch]

I want to do a 3 Screen setup and was wondering if you could use the master raspi as an hotspot to where the other 2 connect via wifi. In this scenario I wouldn't have to deal with cables and a switch.

Has anybody tried this ?

This is possible. I tried it, but its not as accurate as over RJ45. You need to make some adjustments concerning sync window size.

I did it, here are my notes :

Install RaspAP :

wget -q https://git.io/voEUQ -O /tmp/raspap && bash /tmp/raspap

Fix the Pi3 scan wifi issue :

sudo nano /var/www/html/includes/configure_client.php

#Replace lines # by

  exec( 'sudo wpa_cli -i wlan0 scan' );
  sleep(3);
  exec( 'sudo wpa_cli -i wlan0 scan_results',$scan_return );

Add the following line in sudoers :

   sudo visudo
    www-data ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:/sbin/wpa_cli -i wlan0 scan_results
    www-data ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:/sbin/wpa_cli -i wlan0 scan

Configure AP on master & connect the clients by connecting to http://10.3.141.1 (admin | secret)

@pagaille I don't understand where you replace the lines in configure_client.php

@rileycoyote87 i don’t remember :( I found that fix somewhere on Internet (could be a French forum), maybe you can enter the lines in google.

I only kinda got it working on wifi. Rj45 is much easier and better sync

@rileycoyote87 how did you setup the wifi ap ? I feel like the raspis could also mesh with each other.

I ended up using the node js sockets version of omx sync works perfect on lan and wifi
