Gerade #Tidal, #Deezer und #Quobuz selbst durchgetestet.
Was bei uns wichtig war:

1. Funktioniert die App auch #offline tadellos, wenn die Firewall sie vom WWW trennt (weil gerade nicht im WLAN)?
=> Frustriert schnell, wenn man nach Feierabend auf dem Fahrrad sitzt und ständig hängt das Ding.

2. Gibt es ein Plugin für unseren Lyrion Music Server (#LMS), so dass eine #Squeezebox / #PiCorePlayer gefüttert werden kann?
(Auch hier sind Amazon, Apple und YT/Google raus.)

3. Taugen Recommender und Benachrichtigungen zum Wochenende?
(Ich suche lieber selbst, aber SWMBO sieht das leider anders...)

#Spotify hat außerdem "exclusive" Podcasts, die man nicht einfach per AntennaPod catchen kann. 😏

Hat wer von Euch eine Logitech #Squeezebox gebunkert, die ein neues Zuhause sucht?

@tofticles De andre forslag er sikkert også super. Men hvis det KUN er til musik vil jeg anbefale #Lyrion Music Server, som jeg har brugt i umindelige tider.

- Synkroniseret afspilning på tværs af enheder.
- Softwareafspillere til computere og telefoner.
- Hardwareafspillere til stereoanlæg eller køkkenbord (#Squeezebox, der ofte dukker op på DBA til fornuftig pris).
- Et væld af plugins.
- Hack dit eget lort sammen oven på flot Telnet-interface.
- Fri software.

Time to ditch my Chromecast devices. Just installed Lyrion Music Server on my Raspberry Pi home server, powered up the ESP32-A1S Audio Kit I bought recently that has squeezelite-esp32 on it, added the Squeezebox (Lyrion Music Server) integration to my Home Assistant server and bam! instantly there's an awesome track playing in the attic.

De huidige playlist in mijn huis gaat uit
Het is eindelijk tijd voor andere geluiden
Die geen winterse feestdagen aanduiden
En mijn reguliere collectie weer ontsluit

Ja krass, das ist ja schick:
Mit https://picoreplayer.org lässt sich sogar auf einem #Raspberry Pi 2+ performant (etwa 20% cpu) ein Line-In Streaming realisieren. Dies in Flac oder MP3. Einzurichten und unter Tweaks, Absatz "Audio tweaks" -> "set Streamer" aktivieren. Das ist so ziemlich mal die simpelste Lösung, um einen Audiostream irgendwohin zu schicken, z. B. auf einen Lyrion Music Server, mit etwa 3 Sekunden Versatz.

@neil Hi Neil! I don't know if this is still relevant for you, but: In search for something not entirely related, I stumbled upon your blog post about Squeezeboxes (I hope your Radio has arrived in the meantime). You mention you were missing a TUI, so I'd like to point your towards my things for controlling Squeezeboxes from a terminal: Cursebox. It may be a little rough around the edges, but if it works for you, I think the user base will double :)

Delighted to manage some accordion practice - too rare a thing now, with my progressive neurological illness. Played ABBA's "Thank You For the Music", a "My Fair Lady" medley, Disney's "Speechless" from Aladdin, and in the recording here the best-known tune from "The Pirates of the Caribbean" films. #Music #accordion #squeezebox #Movies

Some really heavy, timbral squeezebox playing here! https://cormacbegley.bandcamp.com/album/into-the-loam #nowplaying #concertina #squeezebox #accordion #fiddle

Mehr bunt geht immer. 😉

Pleased managed more accordion practice despite neuro illness. Not too light headed just now, though my usually automatic bellows control was a bit challenged! Focused on 5 tunes, inc this one, Windmills of Your Mind. Which on my 72 bass box required jumping from top of bass side to bottom and back! #Music #Accordion #Squeezebox

Just a #squeezebox / #lyrion Radio getting another firmware update.
This amazing old hardware/software combo refuses to die 😍

Open source FTW

I have packaged `cursebox`– my TUI for the Lyrion Music Server/Squeeezboxes – behind SSH in a Docker container, which opens up new possibilities.

Here is the announcement: https://www.detfalskested.dk/2025/09/24/announcing-cursebox-ssh-server/

Listening to Spotify randomly choose songs from my liked list. And it is currently coming up with a huge number of accordion songs! No complaints from me. Currently playing me an accordion version of “The Windmills of Your Mind”. https://open.spotify.com/track/5LrTXgtrjYz8s7UzqQrPL8 #Spotify #Accordion #Squeezebox #Music

Delighted to finally manage a bit more accordion practice. Played current main tunes I'm working on (Speechless from Disney's live action Aladdin, My Fair Lady medley, and ABBA's Thank You For The Music). Plus first go at a French-style tune from a bandoneon composer. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5N9ieoWpNcc #accordion #bandoneon #squeezebox #music

wow really no way to play a left hand f minor chord on a wheatstone layout C/G Anglo #concertina huh (I know you can fudge it with root-fifth, which you have to do with a lot of stuff outside C/Am/G/Em) #squeezebox

HA

Ok while trying to report the sync oddity with the WiiMs and the Logitech Squeezebox Radio's I've got I tripped over one of the 3 radios in my office that can sync up solidly.

Double checked, it's the converted UE.

The converted UE that can't use it's wifi because it's just broken or something.

The UE Radio that has a wired connection.

Yup, indication that the wifi on the Radio's has gotten poopier of late and I just need to flip all the Radios over to wired outright (and if they need to be away from ethernet, bridge them back in with a gl.inet router or something).
