I'm looking for a media player/OS for an ARM SBC that can stream from my navidrome (subsonic compatible) music server, and be controlled via either a web GUI or an android app. I'd love to hear what you guys came up with!
Currently really happy with my setup, I'm using Navidrome as my music server, along with Ultrasonic as my phone client.
I've set up a (dumb/analog) speaker system on my workshop, and I'd like to be able to listen to music there, but I don't want to add a whole setup (be it an old laptop, or add kb/mouse, monitor and such) and my phone no loner has a 3.5mm jack.
I have a Raspberry Pi 3, an OrangePi Zero, and an OrangePi PC+. I'd rather use the zero or the PC+ since they're kinda unstable/wonky and I don't trust them anymore for stuff I want to keep running 24/7 (like pihole).
I'm open to testing other music servers (volumio maybe?) on my main homelab if that means having the ability to change the client/sink from the app/gui (something like what Spotify does, where you can pick from any client to stream to other clients/speakers)
Hah if you've been on Reddit and seen some of the posts about LMS and Home Assistant you've probably seen a bunch of my posts about it.
When I installed PCP on the Pi Zero W it was hooked up to a Bluetooth soundbar. There was no need for soldering a PCB in there. The pi3b I have upstairs was running though and old pair of PC speakers I found in a drawer, and the one in my kitchen was run though and old Bose surround sound system, via an electric drum kit I got my kid for his birthday. Meant we could put songs on Spotify through it and play along on the drums
