It used to be "low power" meant "limited functionality". Now with Pi4 and even CORE32 - these units are not only low power but can support sync on many players, do full transcoding and possible DRC and other processing stuff. It is also now simpler to add a Pi based LMS than play around with custom NAS builds. Although for some NAS there is a Docker alternative. The LMS ecosystem has also been improved by the availability of the low cost, quick to start ESP32 based players as an genuine alternative to bridged BT/UPNP/Airplay speakers. * PI3/4 based players are now the high end/highly customisable "player" solution. * Pi Zero cheaper but still with PCP * ESP32 - Philippe's excellent Squeezeamps, Polyvection DAC32 and now Raspiaudio products such as ready to go ESP Muse Luxe (mine is due on Fri) and the prototype board ESP32 MUSE Proto https://forum.raspiaudio.com/t/multirooms-with-squeezelite-with-esp32-muse-proto/291 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=115782 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
