    Default Volumio with two systems?

    I currently use Volumio with my headphone system and now what to set up another, totally independent of the first.
    Is this possible?

    Yup it is
    If you pay volumio you can have the 2 connected by WiFi for sharing of music etc. But there is nothing to stop u having several unconnected ones. Just give them separate ip's. And separate names so you know who h is which

    I have Virtuosa, so sounds like it is possible then.

    Looks like I need the Superstar plan for more than one device, so may give Moode a go on the second Pi.

    I previously had two Rpi devices running on Volumio. The home screen showed both devices as active. I no longer have the second Rpi device but unless (basic) Volumio has changed it should still work.

    Both volmio and moode are using the same base rpi software which allows you to set up each device as a separate entity without problem.

    Getting two devices to share common play rules is what volumio charges for as thats their custom code on top of the shared linux base.

    You just need to rename each device so its different to the default - so something like vol1 and vol2.

    Then you control each via a differnt web page by calling vol1.local and vol2. Local when entering the page address. You could also just user the ip address’s allocated by your router if you know how to find them

    Pm me if you need help

    I tried it and could not see the new Pi, I do use the App so maybe this makes a difference.

    I have set the new Pi up on Moode, but would much rather use Volkumio if I can. Can you give me any pointers on how to do it?

    Just seen your offer of help, will send you a pm.

    Cheers,

    Bill.
