Hello!
I am very happy with my rpi b3+, everything works as espected.

I have two questions, maybe anyone can help me out?
Is it better to turn of the gui to save some ressources on the rpi? if so, how do I do that?

and even more important: I need to change the port from 9999 to 80, didnot find the webserver data on the sd card in /etc is there any option? I am basically a linux noob sadly

thanks a lot

Sorry but the web server port is hardcoded to 9999.
To change it you need to rebuild QLC+ from sources.
The line of code is this:

It should be possible to get Linux to 'redirect' port 80 traffic to another port. This article which I've spent at least 10 seconds looking at seems to show how to do it:

I'm not sure if this is correct and I've not tested it but hopefully it'll do what you want.
