Portsdown stream receiver input

How does one build, configure, and implement the Portsdown stream receiver input for the repeater controller?

I'm assuming that I would need to build a Portsdown for each stream input (hopefully headless rather than needing more screens etc.) but where do I go from there?

The recommended solution is not to use a Portsdown, but to use a Ryde for the stream input. This is of course headless and does not need an IR remote control. It is all configured in the config.yaml file.

Thank you again Dave..

There is a bit of a learning curve but I will get there.

I have no doubt that there will be many many more questions before I am done

OK.. Ryde is built enough to operate a stream receiver.
(I am waiting for components to populate the GPIO breakout and control boards I have)

How do I configure it so that those given a suitable IP and log in can access the repeater?
