I've just set up my first PiCorePlayer. Fantastic work on the software and user GUI (donation made!). Using 3.5 and a rPi 3B+ (with built in wifi) and hifiberry DAC + Pro and attached WD 4TB USB drive. Using it as both LMS (nomysqueezebox start mode) and a player.
I'm going to be using this in a location with no internet. I thought I'd have to set up a router to create a local network so I could control LMS with iPeng from ipad or iphone. But was very pleased to see that I could use the setup for WIFI AP on the rPi and avoid the need for a router. I simply have to set my iPad to the rPi wifi AP SSID, and I can access piCorePlayer webGUI and use iPeng for controlling LMS. Works nicely--if I remember to connect the iPad to the rPi wifi ;-) *Home:* VortexBox 4TB (2.4) > LMS 7.9.1 > Transporter, Touch, Boom, Radio (all ethernet) *Cottage:* VBA 3TB (2.4) > LMS 7.9.1 > Touch > Benchmark DAC I, Boom, Radio w/Battery (all ethernet except Radio) *Office:* Win8(64) > LMS 7.9.1 > Squeezelite *Spares:* Transporter, Touch(3), Radio(3), Boom, SB3, CONTROLLER *Controllers:* iPhone6 & iPadAir2 (iPeng & Squeezepad), CONTROLLER, or SqueezePlay 7.8 on Win10(64) laptop *Files:* ripping: dbpoweramp > FLAC; post-rip: mp3tag, PerfectTunes; Streaming: Spotify ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108852 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
