Are you using the free or paid version of Spotify? The paid version has better audio quality.

One problem I found with the Sony UBP-X800M2 as a cd player was the lack of display on the unit. If that is important to you.

I have been running Amazon Ultra HD through my hifi for the last couple of months, in a round about way.

I have a fire stick pluged into my AV receiver (both support 24/192). I run the front pre...

Depending on the software, you can usually use Airplay from a Raspberry Pi, but I don't think it supports HD music.

Boss 2 out now.

Nice, would make a ideal upgrade for my RaspDac mini kit, just needs a updated copy of MoOde.

Nice setup. What version of Volumio are you using, looks very different to the last time I tried it?

Upgrade to windows 10.

Does the screen work "out the box" with the supplied software or do you need to do some fancy programming?

Analog-to-digital converter?

Advertising, the curse of the 21st century, you can't get away from it, tv, radio, phones, internet, etc etc

Thanks Ken, will give it ago when I have a minute.

Yes please, could come in handy :)

Looking good Ken. :) Are you running with LMS and MoOde on the same SD card?

Glad you got it up and running Ken, worth another try with MoOde. Don't forget MoOde will be using squeezelite with LMS not MPD for playing, so you might not get the sound of MoOde.

Ken, thanks for info about Jivelite, I will take a look. Perhaps your answer is a two card set up, picoreplayer at home via LMS/Material Skin and moode on the road. It only takes a second to change...

I don’t think so, I think picoreplayer only works with LMS. There is no GUI for picoreplayer, you open it’s web page to set it up and then play via material skin on LMS.

Did you try restarting...

How is your pi connected to the network? I have a static ip address set for my pi player in the router, when I booted my player yesterday it did not appear in LMS and was showing the wrong ip address...

Worth trying the 7.9 beta version, I had the material skin running ok with 7.9.3, can't remember what version. Your NAS may give you the option to update once installed. LMS gives the option to...

Ken,

Good info here https://www.picoreplayer.org/

If LMS works with your NAS that would be the way to go, install and set up LMS on NAS drive.

Install and set up picoreplayer on your pi.

I have been running LMS for the last few days on my 4GB pi 4 with a usb hard drive with no problems, player is a pi 3B+ running moode audio.

All up and running with my pi, great on my iPad but not working with my raspdac mini kit, no display or remote. You need the music and artist information plugin for the artist, album info etc.

Instructions here on how to install LMS on a Raspberry Pi.
