don't bother with rc.local it doesn't always work and its hard to figure
out why.
I have an older pi running wheezy as opposed to the newer jessie build.
Inside the users directory I have this:
/home/pi/.config/autostart
I'm not sure if any scripts work here but the standard Linux desktop
files work e.g. a file something like this:
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Exec=/usr/local/bin/rdairplay
You can copy/paste an existing desktop file into here and it should
work. Also have a look around your system settings for startup
applications, if you have that (I think the newer Pi OS' do) then just
use the GUI to do it.

Hi all,
I have been pulling my hair out trying to autostart rdairplay on a pi.
I have created a script to do this called rdairplay located at
/home/bananapi. I then added the script to rc.local like this. sudo sh
/etc/init.d/rdairplay. I then go to terminal and run sudo
/etc/init.d/rc.local start and it runs fine and rdairplay comes up.
However when I reboot it does not run the rdairplay application. I
have tried everything I know. Why would it run manually, but not on
reboot. Is there a better or different way to do this?
