This was what the Google Chromecast Audio was amazing for. £30, a fibre optic output. Then they killed it. I still have one and use it every day, and they’re fairly sought after so prices on eBay are more than twice the retail price
- swamp_donkey 3y agoI’m running three of them, they work perfectly with audio in sync outdoors and different rooms indoors. I wish there was some equivalent still available.
- glymph 3y agoMopidy does a great job, either on its own as a player of streams, MP3 files from the local drive or a NAS, or for connecting to various online services. I think you can even integrate shairport-sync to cast to it, but have only got that working on the hifiberry snapcast clients individually. The only issue I've had with mopidy in general was getting it to work with Spotify. The API changed recently, and doesn't seem to work anymore via raspotify. I set up Tidal instead, and was good to go in ten minutes. Also, you can send the output to snapcast and have multiple devices in separate rooms playing music synchronously. There are various web-interfaces, or just use MPD to control the mopidy server.
