Hi lucc31,
The PCP ecosystem does support what you need, but in a different way. If you have trouble to get the the phat beat connected on the same pi as your screen does reside the network can help. BTW I use it an almost same setup here. Use the zero with an external ethernet ( wired , or wifi ) some decent power adapter as it powers the tiny amp, and run it headless. Use the pi 3 with screen and jivelite , and choose the squeezelite on the pi-zero. Now you can control the player as if it was inside the main box. The wifi network link does allow me to place the player/amp across the room without the lineout or speaker wires running from my main player/LMS instance. A word on the wifi usage: We all warn here for less than optimal results with wifi. If you know that you are doing and avoid the known issues, you can use it with a lot of satisfaction, but start with wired networks to avoid issues and certainly keep your LMS server on a wired node. regards M-H Pi based multi-room audio system powered by PiCorePlayer(s): Pi3B with Phat-dac in a Rasptouch, 2 pi B+ with Cirrus Logic Audio Card, Pi Zero with Phat-beat , and a few other tests... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ M-H's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=66156 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111298 _______________________________________________ diy mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/diy
