ServerWMC pulling wrong IP for http service

Ok so I recently added a 2nd Ceton tuner to my setup and have been having major issues with trying to use the http service.  After some digging around looking at logs, and opening my eyes to what was right in front of me the whole damn time I found my issue.

 

I have 2 ceton InfinitTV4's on my system, one is PCI-E, the other is USB.

 

For whatever reason when I enable the http service ServerWMC tries to use the IP address of my USB tuner box, not the Machines IP address.  Obviously this completely breaks the HTTP service and prevents any streaming whatsoever.

 

Is there a config somewhere I can edit to change to the correct address?  I've tried re-booting the system etc, but it always pulls the IP for my USB tuner, never see's the IP of my actual NIC.

 

Any help is greatly appreciated!

 

Thanks

 

Jeremy

Ok, I got it figured out.

 

The binding metrics were all screwed up for the "NIC"s in the PC, set the binding order manually on each NIC and now ServerWMC pulls the correct IP for the machine.

Glad you found a fix.  To answer your question, the next release of swmc will let you hardcode the ip used for the http service as an optional setting.  If your fix turns out to not be reliable i can give a prerelease to test with.  Users of plex with multiple nics were having the same problem as you, hence the new setting.  i could not find a fix for this programatically, seems like it should be easy but my google fu could not crack it.

Yeah the metric setting completely resolved the issue for me.  It's just a matter of going in under the IPV4 properties for each NIC, click "advanced", turn off "automatric metric" and then enter the metric number you want to use on each nic.(lowest number equals highest priority)
