Other backends continue to work as with "classic" Shairport Sync. +- Multiple instances of the AirPlay 2 version of Shairport Sync can not be hosted on the same system. It seems that AirPlay 2 clients are confused by having multiple AirPlay 2 players at the same IP addresses. ## Guides * A building guide is available at [BUILD.md](BUILD.md).
