If UxPlay stalls _without an error message_ and _without the server name showing on the client_, this is either pre-UxPlay-1.60
behavior when no DNS-SD server was found, or a network problem.
After starting uxplay, use the utility ```avahi-browse -a -t``` in a different terminal window on the server to
After starting uxplay, use the utility ``avahi-browse -a -t`` in a different terminal window on the server to
verify that the UxPlay AirTunes and AirPlay services are correctly registered (only the AirTunes service is
used in the "Legacy" AirPlay Mirror mode used by UxPlay). If the UxPlay service is listed by avahi-browse, but is not seen by the client,
used in the "Legacy" AirPlay Mirror mode used by UxPlay).
The results returned by avahi-browse should show entries for
uxplay like
```
+ eno1 IPv6 UxPlay AirPlay Remote Video local
+ eno1 IPv4 UxPlay AirPlay Remote Video local
+ lo IPv4 UxPlay AirPlay Remote Video local
+ eno1 IPv6 863EA27598FE@UxPlay AirTunes Remote Audio local
+ eno1 IPv4 863EA27598FE@UxPlay AirTunes Remote Audio local
+ lo IPv4 863EA27598FE@UxPlay AirTunes Remote Audio local
```
If only the loopback ("lo") entries are shown, a firewall on the UxPlay host
is probably blocking full DNS-SD service, and you need to open the default UDP port 5353 for mDNS requests,
as loopback-based DNS-SD service is unreliable.
If the UxPlay service is listed by avahi-browse, but is not seen by the client,
the problem is likely to be a problem with the local network.
### 2. uxplay starts, but stalls after "Initialized server socket(s)" appears, *with the server name showing on the client* (but the client fails to connect when the UxPlay server is selected).
This shows that a *DNS-SD* service is working, but a firewall on the server is probably blocking the connection request from the client.
