Hi, i am using PCP 4 Beta 7 and I used this 'tutorial' (http://shallowsky.com/blog/hardware/pi-zero-audio.html) to build a small circuit to power an active speaker of mine. Only problem: I do not hear a thing. In the squeezelite settings I set analog audio as output, I edited the

hi LanceL, Very strange! Burning an SD card is so simple its hard to imagine where something could go wrong. Here is the procedure I have used on a couple of Windows PCs, hundreds, probably a thousand times now without issue. Lucky pCP is so small it takes less than 10 seconds to burn!
