Lumin controller for Pi

[SteveW]

Now on my 3rd Pi- in the kitchen, needing a long long Ethernet cable to plumb in properly.
This one came with Rune (thank you Bournendboy Bill!).
The other two run on Moode, and function well enough.
My main problem has always been that my ever increasing library from my QNAP nas doesn't get recognised. I've worked round this by using UPNP controllers.
I've now settled on the best for me - Lumin - which is brilliant and works on both iPad and my iPhone 6. Not sure about android- sorry.

What j really like is how intuitive it is to use, I can easily switch players on it and the album art representation is fantastic. Also in settings it reloads my library really quickly - which is handy as I'm uploading to the nas all the time.

Very pretty ui

Hi Grant
It is very pretty. Also on an iPad, the artwork resolution is super.
Oh, just checked they have it on android now as well.

The only real down side that I have found is that I can't play Internet radio from it.
So for that I go back to the moode.

If i ever get a nas i would give that a go... I at moment just plug an hdd in so just use moode. Not played with upnp on moode as it once got switched on and it caused samba share to go and i couldnt add to my collection remotely.
