#Volumio

I’ll be probably by the only user that wants to control #Volumio by making use of #SmashTunes, the #macOS app for displaying #Spotify and #AppleMusic. But hey, I’m the author of this software, so why not add this functionality?

Playing around with #websockets now. A basic setup is in place. Nice to work with open hard ware.

I must add that I’m super happy with my #Rivo+ Any other owners out here? Or #Volumio users?

Ça me chauffe bien ce petit #DAC pour #RaspberryPi .

Vous me conseillez quoi comme serveur de musique local ?
Je vois qu'il existe des trucs comme #Volumio, #MoOde , #PiCorePlayer etc... mais j'ai jamais testé.

I'm pretty triggered #volumio :/

Les presento mi nuevo reproductor de música para el rincón de trabajo en casa. Raspberry Pi 3B + PiFi DAC+ funcionando con volumio.

#RaspberryPi #Volumio #Ñoñerias

Una placa de circuito impreso azul, probablemente una tarjeta de sonido o similar, se encuentra sobre una superficie de madera gris. La placa tiene varios componentes electrónicos, incluyendo condensadores, resistencias y conectores RCA dorados. También se ven dos puertos USB y un puerto Ethernet. La placa está etiquetada como "Pi HAT" y "RPi DAC+".

Okay, #Volumio war eine Vollkatastrophe. Die App funktionierte nicht zum einrichten, nachdem es installiert war, ließ sich nichts abspielen über #musicassistant .
Jetzt teste ich mal #PiCorePlayer . Funktioniert schon mal besser, aber noch nicht zuverlässig...

Ich glaube ich schaue mir am Wochenende mal #Volumio genauer an. Könnte ein weiterer Baustein sein, um meine Abhängigkeit von #alexa zu reduzieren.
Wahrscheinlich in Kombination mit #homeassistant , #musicassistant und #jellyfin .

Regarding #RaspberryPi and #Volumio, we're still undecided in which form we would like to get the audio from the device.

Right now, we're using an old USB sound card and an old mini amp of mine, but ultimately it would be great to have a more compact setup in the kids' room.

The current options are:
* Add an amp to the board (with hardware volume knob)
* Add a DAC to the board
* Use a USB to audio dongle
* Use an HDMI audio extractor
* Buy a cheap external DAC/amp combo

Any suggestions? #hifi

My daughter and I made some progress with our #volumio project. Since we're still undecided about the case (maybe we're waiting for the updated SmartiCase to be available), we've decided to build something on our own for now. The project needed almost all of our "useful" duplo stones. The USB soundcard is hidden inside. #hifi #nerdparenting

I did some major restructuring of my #hifi setup and obtained an (almost) all-in-one device from Advance Paris.

I'm very happy with it right now. Even the basic, simple things, like listening to my local radio station are fun now.

The only major weak point is it's somewhat rudimentary network streaming capabilities via the manufacturer's app, but I didn't expect to retire my #volumio device anyway.

Regarding the #volumio project I mentioned yesterday, I'm still confused about several aspects of audio via USB. For example: is a USB DAC simply a soundcard to the OS?

We didn't go the route of adding a DAC HAT to the Raspberry Pi. Instead, I wanted to use a USB dongle for simplicity. However, the Oehlbach USB Bridge - actually a headphone amplifier - I had in mind did not really work (volume too low). In the end, I used an old USB audio interface that I had lying around (Maya 44 USB).

Yesterday, I've set up a #volumio device for my daughter together with her.

We regularly go to the library and I rip the audio book CDs she borrows with a one-click script based on #abcde and copy them to the family NAS. She then used to listen to them with my Volumio (streaming from the NAS) in the living room. Now she can listen in her own room as well.

The new device is essentially a Raspberry Pi with a touch screen. The hard part now is to build a case for this thing.

@skolima I've been using #Volumio for the last year or so and am quite pleased with it. It appears that their premium version may accomplish what you're looking for.

One slight bummer about upgrading my #volumio music project to a #raspberrypi 4b was that I had to get rid of my little box that held the Pi Zero 2w so well.

But tonight I'm happy to have repurposed it as a house for both a local #WLED install and my #pihole and that it will continue to take decals.

In order to maintain some semblance of productivity on the last Friday of the year, I set up an old #raspberrypi to run #volumio, and now I have an internet radio. Still figuring out how to get it to play my MP3s, but making progress!

Finally upgraded my #Volumio setup from the Pi Zero 2W to a Pi 4b. But after unsuccessfully getting my #Hifiberry DAC+ Zero to work on either setup, I'm thinking it might be time to send it back to them for a hardware inspection. Either way, it's great to have all my digital music back up!

Raspberry Pi Zero 2w, you have served me as well as you could for the first year and a half of this NAS project, but you're just a bit too weak for #Volumio

I had a Pi 4 hanging around after I moved RetroPie to my Pi 5, so it's the perfect replacement for the Zero 2w. #hifiberry dac+ on top.

Ondertussen tussen het werken door druk bezig om #volumio uit te proberen. Een Music-management-server waarbij Qobux en Tidal kunnen intregeren. Een goedkoper alternatief dan #Roon 🙂

I did a write up on the new Audio server setup I put together using a #RaspberryPi #Volumio and #HiFiBerry It's very hackable and sounds great! blog.meadowhawk.xyz/building-a

I've been going back and forth over the last few years using #Volumio and #piCorePlayer. Just installed the latter again, mostly because I don't really like the UI of Volumio. I have simple needs, just playing music off an SMB share on another pi. I may try to get #Qobuz working at some point, but I don't have a subscription right now.
