Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] No tools req'd: Old router with OpenWRT and squeezelite
The Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 gen1 is class compliant and runs fine with Linux PCs. It runs with my router, too, but I have to start squeezelize a 2nd or a 3rd time until the sound is ok. Anyway, the Behringer's advantageis its low price and its TOSLink output. bluebell's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=44283 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111944 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] No tools req'd: Old router with OpenWRT and squeezelite
Such a good idea. I would never have thought of using an old router and OpenWRT for that kind of usage... actually any USB DAC would probably work, as long as it is USB audio compliant (instead of the sound card in your case). After a very quick search, I couldn't find the detailed spec of that router, but it looks like it has 128 Mb RAM... also 10% CPU seems quite low... Interesting, thank you for sharing. I might have a look at pile of old stuff on the shelves...

[SlimDevices: Unix] No tools req'd: Old router with OpenWRT and squeezelite
I have an old TP-Link 3600 router, installed a recent OpenWRT (19.07) and attached a Behringer UCA 202 USB audio interface. Squeezelite is in the OpenWRT's repo. opkg update opkg install kmod-usb-audio opkg install squeezelite-full I added option server_addr 'myLMSip' in /etc/config/squeezelite Works like a charm. Squeezelite ist automatically started after boot. CPU load is at about 7 to 10%. Since the Behringer UCA 202 (still available for about 30 EUR) has TOSLink I use the high quality DAC of my MOTU UltraLite AVB. I tried a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 1st gen instead of the Behringer and wasn't satisfied. I couldn't find any parms that provide reliable, crackle-free playback. Maybe the Scarlett's power consumption is a bit high. It's bus powered. bluebell's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=44283 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111944 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
