This sort of issue is becoming more prevalent i.e. a source that used to work natively in SN/LMS drops support but it is there for the likes of Amazon, Roku, Sonos devices etc.
My generic solution is a Pi streamer attached to my Hi-Fi which will stream ANY source that you can plug in to the Hi-Fi to LMS via a "Tune in URL". You can do this with piCorePlayer on said Pi with Squeezelite & LMS disabled but pcp-streamer switched ON and something akin to a Behringer UCA202 (a joint ADC & DAC) as the interface between Hi-Fi and Pi. However pcp-streamer has a couple of downsides that I don't like. Instead I use the same hardware but with Raspbian, Liquidsoap & Icecast2 installed. I followed these 2 how to's https://iotsblog.wordpress.com/2016/02/25/wireless-streaming-vinyl-to-squeezebox/ - which gives you mp3 streaming then improved to FLAC streaming in - https://iotsblog.wordpress.com/2016/10/22/high-end-wireless-vinyl-streaming/ This gives you exactly what stream-what-you-hear does on Windows but is more flexible in that a) its an always on headless Pi and b) it will stream anything that is output by the Hi-Fi so it could be SiriusXm on Amazon Alexa device or it could be Vinyl played on your turntable. Lag is about 3 seconds. You can also, of course, do the same with the WAVInput plugin if your source is close enough to your LMS server. None of these solutions support Metadata but I have hacked favoutites.opml so at least I have a nice icon 27745 +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: 2019-07-23 16_59_37-Logitech Media Server.jpg | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=27745| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ VB2.4[/B] STORAGE *QNAP TS419P (NFS) [B]Living Room* - Joggler & SB3 -> Onkyo TS606 -> Celestion F20s *Office* - Pi3+Sreen -> Sony TAFE320 -> Celestion F10s / Pi2+DAC & SB3 -> Onkyo CRN755 -> Wharfedale Modus Cubes *Dining Room* -> SB Boom *Kitchen* -> UE Radio (upgraded to SB Radio) *Bedroom (Bedside)* - Pi2+DAC ->ToppingTP21 ->AKG Headphones *Bedroom (TV)* - SB Touch ->Sherwood AVR ->Mordaunt Short M10s Everything controlled by iPeng ------------------------------------------------------------------------ d6jg's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=44051 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=110783 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
