Hi bencat,

Thanks for sharing.

Do your players have different names? (Under Settings/Reboot)

Also, what are the command line options in Squeezelite?
hw:0/hw:1 enables hardware volume control and "-C 5" automatically
closes the playback of Squeezelite after 5 seconds of inactivity.

Hello Slimdevices Community,

We just released a beta image based on the new Raspbian Buster release
for the Raspberry Pi 4B models.

You can 'download the free image'
(https://www.max2play.com/en/max2play-image/) from our website right
now.

This new beta is compatible with all Raspberry Pis and the LMS 7.9
nightly.

In connection with the new release, we also have a global update for all
Max2Play Raspberry systems to Max2Play 2.50.
For an overview of all the changes and improvements in this update, head
to our 'Change Log' (https://www.max2play.com/en/changelog-max2play/).


We appreciate all feedback on this new image, either here in this topic
or in our 'Forums' announcement thread'
(https://www.max2play.com/en/forums/topic/announce-new-max2play-image-for-raspberry-pi-4/).

Indeed, we are working hard to have a new beta image out as soon as
possible.

The LMS in connection with 4GB model is also what we found most
interesting for Max2Play.

It seems to work really well.

Hi everyone,

First of all thank you for your continued support and interest in our
project!

Our current 2.49 image is indeed not compatible with the new Raspberry
Pi 4B.

As mentioned above, the new Raspbian Buster release is necessary for the
4B to boot.

We are currently still evaluating the possibilities and challenges of
the new Pi and will let you know right away, when there is a new beta
release available based on Raspbian Buster.

You can also hop over to our forums if you have any specific feedback or
requests for the new Pi with Max2Play.

Hi folks,

I'm excited to share a new extensive article series with you!

Mario, who has been our intern at Max2Play for the past few months, has
written a very special series which deals with 3 exemplary zones in a
budget-friendly multiroom system, one zone detailed in each article.

The series is aimed at both HiFi beginners and audiophile veterans,
because in each article there is are detailed step-by-step guides with
instructions as well as helpful tips on our software and plugins for
optimization.

In the first article, you will find out everything about the project as
a whole and the upcoming articles. We also explain the basics for
building a multiroom system, including Raspberry Pi and sound cards.

The next article will come out at the start of next week, so stay tuned
;)

Hi Tony, 

Do you restart your system regularly and if so do you properly shut down
the Pi before removing the power source? Most issues with longtime
users' setups are connected to defective microSD cards. So if you have a
second one where you could copy your system onto with our image burner
plugin, you can test this.
You can also check your console output when connected to a screen during
booting, to see at which process your reboot sequence takes up this much
time. This way you might be able to isolate the source of the issue as
well.


For further support from my end you can also head over to our forums
where I'll be able to see and respond to your request right away.

2018-12-19 Thread Max2Play


Before the year closes out, we put together some new HowTo articles to
give newcomers to Max2Play the chance to check out some of our more
advanced features and plugins. We hope you can find the time during the
holidays to check these applications and their usefulness in your audio
setups.


All these instructional articles are listed in our 'HowTo section on our
website' (https://www.max2play.com/en/how-tos/#m2p-features) and are
available in German and English. We recently tried to add new ones with
features that are either hidden gems of the Max2Play system or have been
popular for a long time but only detailed in our forums or somewhere
else. I hope you enjoy them and can find something fresh to try out :)



'*_API-Examples_* (free)'
(https://www.max2play.com/en/how-tos/howto-use-http-requests-with-max2play/)
-> Our new shortcut overview plugin that dynamically compiles major
commands for Squeeze playback, Jivelite control, Kodi and the Max2Play
system


'*_MultiSqueeze_* (premium)'
(https://www.max2play.com/en/how-tos/howto-additional-audio-outputs-with-multisqueeze/)
-> Our popular Squeezelite creator plugin, select how many instances of
Squeezelite you want to run and set your different audio outputs to
them


'*_Callblocker_plugin_* (free)'
(https://www.max2play.com/en/how-tos/howto-call-blocker-with-tellows-and-max2play/)
-> Based on the popular tellows Callblocker software, this plugin lets
use your Pi to automatically block callers from a custom blacklist via
VoIP to better manage harassment calls


*_openHAB_Presence_Check_* (coming soon)
-> add a presence check to an openHAB server binding for your smartphone
to let your Squeezebox system automatically playback once you arrive in
your local network and stop playing once you leave (currently working on
it, will add the link once it's live)

Hi slimdevices community, we need your feedback!

We are currently working on a hardware control plugin, a compilation of
easy-to-use software solutions for various popular control elements in
Max2Play.

We already have solutions for rotary encoders and infrared remotes in
our current beta of the plugin. Additionally, plugin we have installed a
new solution for smart remotes to be ideal Jivelite control bindings.

Now we want to know what controls you want.

What would you like to use to control your Max2Play devices? What is
already working, or what have you gotten to work, in your setup and
should be added?

Does the smart remote solution from the JustBoom Plugin work with other
plug & play remotes? (Please let us know in case you have one lying
around)

You can also find the Hardware Control Plugin beta link on the same

2018-10-25 Thread Max2Play


Hi slimdevices forums!

We recently published a new Instructable based on our head developer's
Max2Play + LMS Setups in bath and bedroom.

It includes different tips on setting up new multiroom zones with
Max2Play and Squeezebox software as well as new info on using our free
API-Examples plugin to quickly implement various commands and tasks like
play, new song, etc. by copy-pasting from our web interface to a home
automation system of your choice.

'Check it out on Instructables.com
'
(https://www.instructables.com/id/Smart-Music-in-Bedroom-and-Bath-With-Raspberry-Pi-/)

Here's an excerpt:

25837

-For the bedroom setup we built wooden boxes where our speakers would
fit in. Then we cut out holes of the wall, which had the size of those
boxes. Finally, we screwed the boxes tight into the wall. All hardware
is still accessible through a revision opening.

To control the speakers, you may use a smartphone app or connect the
player with existing home automation buttons e.g. on the door of your
bedroom. You could add a long button push to activate the sleep timer
and a short push for Play/Pause. The Squeezebox Server, thanks to its
open interface, offers many possibilities to configure any commands.
Fitting HTTP and CLI commands can be found in our API-Examples plugin
which is also preinstalled and can be activated free in our inactive
Plugins section under Settings/Reboot.

Example HTTP command for "start playing":

Hi guys,

Perhaps this is a bit unnecessary for this community, as you are
probably all already familiar with these plugins, but we recently

mherger and philippe_44. Special thanks again for their (patient)
support in helping me get the details right.

We also added a quick step-by-step guide on adding them to the LMS for

yet due to Max2Play's one-click installer.

Hi guys,

I just wanted to let you know about some of our new developments.

We recently released *Max2Play 2.47* with some great new features
added.

Here's the changelog:


- NEW PLUGIN! *API-Examples*
  automatically added to your Max2Play in 2.47, the Plugin can be
  activated in Settings/Reboot
  List of various HTTP requests and CLI commands for Max2Play multimedia
  features
  easy copy and paste option for all open-source home automation
  software
  create simple shortcuts for tasks like shutdown, reboot, play or
  pause
- NEW PLUGIN! *OpenHAB Server*
  one-click installer of the OpenHAB 2 Server on RPi
  Alexa support for Squeezebox control
  easy integration of Max2Play features with the API-Examples
- MamboBerry HD DAC+ added to Sound Card Selection
- PiJuice quick installer for GUI or web-based integration added to
  Raspberry Settings
- HiFiBerry BeoCreate TCP server beta
- Kodi PVR Addons for Stretch added
- Spotify Connect fix for RPi Zero and RPi Zero wireless
- Adafruit touchscreen integration fix
- Various bug fixes
- Security updates
  

Both new plugins are great additions to Max2Play and can make your Pi
even more ubiquitous in your home network.

Especially the API-Examples plugin is ideal for all Squeezebox users of
Max2Play since it dynamically creates an extensive list of HTTP and CLI
commands for playback control other functions.
You can find it in all Max2Play systems with the update. ItÂ’s a free
plugin and can be added in the Settings/Reboot menu from the available
plugins section.


We will publish some more details and articles on these updates soon,
but for now I wanted to let you know right away so you can try them out
:)

Hi fahzz,

Thanks for question.

We support Spotify with two distinct solutions. MHerger's Spotty
solution for LMS Spotify and the Spotify Connect player plugin for
dedicated players.

We also have a Google Music solution for the LMS that is installable
from our web interface.

Otherwise, the LMS solutions for other services should also work. We
have users with Qobuz, TIDAL and Deezer plugins running on their
Max2Play with Squeezebox, but we are not as familiar with these LMS
solutions.

As Max2Play uses the default LMS installation, all 3rd party plugins for
these services should work as well.

BLUETOOTH UPDATE:

We just released a new beta with our Squeezebox Server Integration for
Bluetooth added!

It works just like the last versions integration, except a lot smoother
than before and with a little less latency.

Just make the beta update, install the Squeezebox Server Solution at the
bottom of the Bluetooth menu, pair you phone or tablet and the
Squeezebox Server on the device (must be on the same Pi) automatically
starts audio playback from your paired bluetooth device and stops once
you stop. Afterwards, it will also resume its current playlist or
whatever you had playing on it. I tested today on a 3B+ and it worked
great. Let us know what you think of the solution :)

Yes we are using librespot for the Spotify Connect player, as well.
However, the plugin is meant as an alternative for people who want to
run a standalone player without Squeezebox system in the network. For

I'm not sure I understand your issue.

- You can download any image and update to our newest version, 2.46.
- There are image downloads for our older Jessie Image (2.44) and our
newer Stretch Image (2.45) from the time they got released.
- We might update the download itself as well, but updates are generally
there to quickly be able to push changes and fixes out to everybody at
the same time.
- It does not matter if you were to download 2.45 and update to 2.46 or
get the image directly as 2.46. All features would be the same, the
update is done in an instant and there's no reboot required afterwards.

I hope this clears things up.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Max2Play Webinterface for Mediaclients (Audioplayer, Squeezeserver, Airplay, XBMC)

2018-03-28 Thread Max2Play

slartibartfast:
Thanks for the heads-up, we will try check this out.

@kidstypike:

As mentioned in the release, the new BT currently only works for output.
If you prefer using an input method, we recommend using the Jessie
version of Max2Play for now.

Important: Bluetooth Input is not yet supported, we are working on it.
Currently only works for Bluetooth speakers.

To avoid further confusion, here are the changes in this new version:

NEW LOGIN FOR SSH
- Password for both pi and root is now max2play

FULLY COMPATIBLE WITH RASPBERRY PI 3B+
- Important: You need the new Stretch Image to run the Raspberry Pi 3B+,
our Jessie Image 2.44 does not work with this new Raspberry Pi.

NEW BLUETOOTH PLUGIN
- While it looks the same on the outside, within our Bluetooth Plugin a
lot has changed.
- We now use bluealsa which runs much better and reliably.
- Important: Bluetooth Input is not yet supported, we are working on it.
Currently only works for Bluetooth speakers.

UPDATED PASSWORD PROTECTION SETUP
- Now preinstalled and with more security options for root login and
SSH

NEW KODI
- Newest Version for Raspberry Pi: Kodi 17.6-2 Krypton preinstalled

SPEED IMPROVEMENTS!
- Users have reported a 30% increase in speed when scanning their
libraries. Overall, the image runs smoother and faster.

NUMEROUS BUG FIXES THANKS TO OUR COMMUNITY

*Various Security updates*

2018-03-23 Thread Max2Play

Hi guys,

I just wanted to let you know that we now released our Stretch Image
officially!

It coincided the release of the Raspberry Pi 3B+ so already integrated
the new Kernel necessary to boot the device.

This official successor of our Jessie Image runs on all Pi's including
the 3B+ and comes with a new Bluetooth speaker pairing implementation
among other new features.

'Check our blog article on the release for all the details'
(https://www.max2play.com/en/2018/03/new-max2play-stretch-image-for-raspberry-pi-3b-out-now/)
and let me know if you have any feedback :)

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] picoreplayer raspberry pi 3 bluetooth?

2018-01-16 Thread Max2Play

Hi guys,

I just wanted to clarify our Bluetooth Plugin's current status.

We had a few users that reported dropouts after a while of playback
(usually ca. 3 hours). We were able to find the source of this error.

The built-in Bluetooth module of the RPi3 is not a high priority for the
system and gets unreliable when the computer has too many other
processes.

We were able to confirm this by running several tests with USB Bluetooth
dongles without any dropouts.

This is especially interesting for people who want to run a BT speaker
as another Squeezebox zone.
Here, the requirements for 24/7 use would be a speaker that does not go
into sleep mode and a BT dongle on the Raspberry Pi.

2017-10-02 Thread Max2Play

Hi everybody,

Sorry about the late response. I'll go through in order.

@BigTony: You can just remove the tick for "autostart" under the
Squeezelite section of the Audioplayer tab and click "save", as man in
the van mentioned. Then, you can either manually stop the player and it
won't start up again or reboot the device and the player should be gone
from your server's list.

@castalla: Yes, you can back up your image with any normal imager
software. If you are referring to' this guide'
(https://www.max2play.com/en/wiki/creating-an-image-backup/), please let
us know how we can make it more comfortable in the future. If you do not
want to use another SD card for the back-up you can also just use a
SambaShare to access the created .img file from any other device in your
network and copy it.

@man in the van: Thanks for the quick replies and exchange in my
absence. :)

Hi Xyleme,

Sorry about the late reply.

Max2Play works great with Google Music Plugin. And we also fixed a few
things to ensure that it should stay that way. You just have to install
the plugin from the dropdown menu in the Squeezebox Server tab and log
in with the your credentials (+ Device ID of phone or tablet).

Hi guys,

I just wanted to let you know that we were finally also able to recreate
this issue with our installer and fix it. The updated version of the
Google Music Plugin Installer in Max2Play is already included in our
newest Beta Update and will also be included in our next release:
Max2Play 2.45

For now, you can already fix your Google Music implementation by:

- Updating your Max2Play to our newest Beta
- Installing the Google Music Plugin from our Squeezebox Server web
interface menu again
- Restarting the Squeezebox Server
- Logging in again in the Plugin Settings (don't forget the mobile ID
for verification)

2017-08-28 Thread Max2Play

Hi guys,

Sorry about the late reply! I will start looking into this thread more
often. However, for technical issues and requests I would like to refer
you to our own forums where I can help you more directly and not spam
the Squeezebox forums with replies ;)

Nonetheless, I'd like to help you here as well and keep this thread as
an open channel of communication. If you have any feedback on how I
could improve this and what you would like to hear more of (e.g. whether
I should keep this forum posted on our new features), let me know.



@Freddy: Please check the installation of the GMusic plugin again. It
worked the last time we checked.
Regarding your last post, I'm not sure what you mean. SB Radio should
not be running Max2Play. Updating to our most current version should
work on all Raspberry Pi's. The LMS installation should be version 7.9.


@teetitup: You can try using the URL commands. In our beta plugin for
'Voice Control' (https://www.max2play.com/en/addons/), there a few
default commands you can have a look at. Generally, most commands from
Max2Play can be sued for automation with HTTP requests.



I hope these answers did not come too late for you. If you have any
further issues, again I would like to refer you to 'our forum'
(https://www.max2play.com/en/topics/)s. There, we also discuss the
harder problems with our head developer every week and subsequently give
detailed updates on how to fix it and whether we can add a direct fix to
our OS in the next version.

2017-05-22 Thread Max2Play

Hi guys,

Thanks again to Michael for the great implementation. We also tested it
under our newest Max2Play and it works like a charm.



Just make sure:
- That you have the official Spotify plugin active as well as the new
Spotty and NOT the any of the third-party Spotify plugins.
– That you have a MySqueezeBox.com-Account.
– That your Players’ MAC addresses are active in that Account (“Players”
in MySqueezeBox.com)
– That your Spotify Plugin is active and your premium login is entered
and active in MySqueezeBox.com (My Apps -> Spotify in MySqueezeBox.com)




We also just created a Max2Play Plugin for Spotify Connect based on the
same open-source librespot library. It lets you login directly from the
Max2Play web interface and effectively turns your Max2Play device into a
Spotify Connect player, recognized by any Spotify app under the name of
your device. It can run simultaneously with Squeezelite and switch
playback with a few parameters added.

You can check it out in our current beta and install it with this link:
http://shop.max2play.com/media/downloadable/beta/spotifyconnect.tar

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Max2Play's Very Own Multiroom Setup in Bath and Bedroom

2017-04-26 Thread Max2Play

Hi guys,

I wanted share with you a blog article our head developer recently
published wherein he shared his very won implementation of Max2Play's
Squeezebox solution in bathroom and bedroom.

These two places are often overlooked when outfitting a home with sound.
Thus, we thought these ideas might inspire other people to consider
expanding their multiroom systems and take advantage of the great
possibilities that these rooms can offer.

Thanks to Max2Play's versatility and the Squeezebox system's variety of
plugins and extensions; alarms, sleeptimers, and push buttons can easily
be integrated into your multiroom audio system.

Usually, this should not be a problem for our password plugin. This was
just a suggestion to rule out an irregularity of your previous password
as the source of error. If you continue experiencing issues with the
plugin, please start a topic in our forums so that we can isolate the
problem and fix it if it's a bug.

Hi Mynb,
Sorry about the late response. I am happy that you are progressing! You
should definitely get 2.40 and check out' our Changelog'
(https://www.max2play.com/en/changelog-max2play/) to find out what has
changed and what's been improved. The static IP feature simply has not
been requested by a lot of users and we do not want to add features that
might confuse or impede on the features more casual users are mainly
using. Of course, you can always write a simple plugin for purposes like
these and share it with the community. Flysurfer actually recently did
'a video on how easily you can create one'
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWwQ0A1HoWY).
Your issues with the Password plugin are not entirely clear. I just
tested it to make sure there is no current error. You should just be
able to enter a user and pw, save and then once you want to access the
web interface it will ask you for a login on any browser. The SU
restriction is also similarly to prevent new users from playing around
in root.
Regarding the command line options of Squeezelite for parameters we
linked a list of all possible options in the web interface, here it is:

2017-01-20 Thread Max2Play

If you bought the SD card from us, the quality should not be an issue.
In this case, a freshly burnt image would indeed be the best solution.

We actually recently released our new 2.40 image which offers sound card
support for HiFiBerry, JustBoom, etc. without needing a dedicated image
(in addition to a few other nifty improvements like automatic expansion
of the filesystem). Just head to our download page, download the image
and burn it with a simple software like WinDisk32Imager.
Here is a' small wiki'
(https://www.max2play.com/en/wiki/burning-the-image-onto-memory-card/)
detailing the steps. Also, here is a' general starter guide'
(https://www.max2play.com/en/wiki/starter-guide/) with helpful infos.
Regarding the IP, we offered a feature of static IP for LAN networks
with using several Pi's in order to prevent the router from assigning
different IP's on every reboot. However, this is currently the only
parameter we offer to be configured.

Hi doctor,
We recommend using the default "normal". We have not made any
adjustments to the memory handling of the LMS. So if you have an RPi 2b

Hi pippin,
Now it went faster than expected. We actually already implemented a JSON
interface in our newest beta (just click the beta update in the web
interface of any M2P device). You can then immediately start using the
interface in the Audioplayer plugin for the equalizer. All necessary
documentation can be found under "http://[m2p-devicename]/apidoc; and
all the equalizer values are accessible with the command
"http://[m2p-devicename]/plugins/max2play_settings/controller/Squeezeplayer.php?apijson=1_equalizer=1;.
This should be enough to help you utilize the equalizer in your great
app.

No problem, as I said, the selection for Equalizer use in our web
interface is "plugequal" in the advanced settings of Squeezelite, the
dropdown for "sound card". Once active, you can find the equalizer in
the lower half of the Audio Player plugin's menu. It should look like
this and is pretty straightforward in its usage.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Bluetooth Pairing with Smartphone/Tablet for Max2Play

2016-11-15 Thread Max2Play

Hi guys,
I wanted to start a new thread for the huge update we did for our
Bluetooth plugin.

Previously, the Bluetooth plugin was only able to pair Bluetooth
speakers with the Raspberry Pi to use them as an additional audio output
for an instance of Squeezelite, Shairport or MPD. The automatic
repairing and simple interface allowed for just one easy configuration
with a one-click search of the BT devices, a click on "Reconnect" and
the speaker could be used time and again afterwards without any effort.

Now, the Bluetooth pairing is also possible with smartphones and
tablets. In the same vein as the connection with a BT speaker would
occur, you can now pair and automatically repair your Raspberry Pi 3
with a Bluetooth-enabled device for input. In order to make this
possibility worthwhile, especially for users of the Squeezebox Server,
we added two distinct options to channel that Bluetooth input through
your RPi3.
One is the simple, direct connection with Squeezelite or Shairport; by
selecting the "Pulse" feature in both players. This way, the active
player automatically selects your primary sound output device (e.g.
dedicated I2S sound card) and feeds it with the playback coming from
your smartphone or tablet. This allows you to use apps and sound files
you might not have been able to put out through your Raspberry Pi before
like the Audible App for Android which does not allow DLnA output or a
direct output of your voice to use as a PA.
And therein lies the other, even better option to connect your Bluetooth
stream to your RPi3. We made a one-click solution that automatically
adds a favorite channel to your Squeezebox Server (installed on your
RPi3) which will put out the stream from your Bluetooth device to all
selected Squeeze players. This enhances the possibilities of a PA
solution with your Squeezebox Server even further. You could now easily
make an announcement to all your players in the house with your phone.
The great thing about this feature is that we added the possibility for
the Bluetooth stream to interject itself into the Squeezebox Server once
started to automatically play the output of Bluetooth once active (beta
update required).

I urge you to check it out, flysurfer has been putting a lot of work
into it and is working on enhancing the experience as I write this. Just
to prevent the inevitable criticism, we are aware of the limitations of
Pulse Audio output. This solution is not intended to replace HiFi sound
systems, or AirPlay, or anything for that matter. It is just a great new
feature we thought up that has not been done yet in this capacity and
was requested by a lot of our users.

Hi usc95,
Firstly, the hard drive section of our Filesystem/Mount menu includes
this information: -Important: the maximum partition size is 2TB. If
using larger disks you need to divide the disk space into partitions
smaller than 2TB.- Fat32 is definitely supported, however, I am not sure
what you mean by the option of storing movies, generally, the normal
types, exFAT, FAT32, NTFS are supported. You just have to partition the
3 TB into 2 TB and 1 TB.
Regarding the USB-DAC, Raspberry Pi offers one general USB sound card
driver. When you select the option "USB-DAC" in the Raspberry Settings,
this driver is activated. You do not need a specific image to activate
your card, the activation works all, the HiFiBerry and IQaudIO images
are just for users with those sound cards since they automatically
enable the sound card from first start and can be selected for free and
with a preconfigured use case (AirPlay, AudioPlayer, Multiroom). The USB
bus of the RPi is indeed not perfect, but you are correct that usually a
USB-DAC does offer better sound. However, dedicated I2S sound cards are
still much better in the translation of the signal.
I hope this answers all your questions,

kidstypike is correct on both questions. We do not revert any
configurations you have made in premium mode and you can use the license
on all your devices since it is user-based.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Max2Play Webinterface for Mediaclients (Audioplayer, Squeezeserver, Airplay, XBMC)

2016-10-14 Thread Max2Play

Hi feeder6,
Thanks for the kind words. We actually already have a few visualizations
including a VU meter and a spectrum analyzer. You can add them to
Jivelite for your players by adding the parameter "-v" to the command
line options of your audio player. You can see some preview pictures of
the visualizations on our 'Jivelite page'
(https://www.max2play.com/en/features/jivelite/).

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Max2Play Webinterface for Mediaclients (Audioplayer, Squeezeserver, Airplay, XBMC)

2016-10-12 Thread Max2Play

Hi everybody,
I'm Heiner from Max2Play. You are probably already acquainted with
flysurfer who is working hard on improving and expanding our OS. I will
be here to occasionally tell you about new updates and features we add
to our images and hopefully chime in on topics that Max2Play might be
relevant to. Regarding technical support, we have specific forums on our
website wherein you will find the fastest and most direct help you can
get on any issues with our system.

Since we last posted here, a lot of new and exciting features and
plugins were added to Max2Play. I will take the time and tell you about
some of them here:

NEW DESIGN
We have updated all our images to a new, more clear and elegant web
interface design, while keeping all the familiar elements and options
our users have grown accustomed to. However, we also added some useful
new elements like a small dropdown menu on the top-right corner to
navigate all your Max2Play devices if you are running a multiroom
system. We also expanded our help-section on every plugin so that you
are always just one click away from our documentation on every feature.

WPS
We also added WPS as a possible connection method to every new image.
This is especially helpful with the new Raspberry Pi 3 which has a
built-in WiFi module and thus allows for an immediate connection to the
local network after the first boot.

BLUETOOTH SPEAKER SUPPORT
Our new bluetooth plugin lets you pair your Raspberry with a bluetooth
speaker of your choice which you can then use as the output for an
additional player in your system. Once paired, the speaker will
automatically reconnect to the Pi.

GOOGLE MUSIC PLUGIN
We added Google Music functionality to our Squeezebox Server installer.
The open-source plugin comes preinstalled, you need to enter your
credentials and a Mobile ID for validation from Google.

FRENCH TRANSLATION
Huge thanks to our user pepsi95 who almost single-handedly translated
our web interface in the French language once we published a translation
server that applies the changes to our demo image in real time and adds
them in every new update. You can find the server on our website if you
want to contribute in your preferred language.

VOICE CONTROL
This our most recent new plugin and it adds a great new feature to the
Max2Play OS. Using HTTP-Requests, you can use the plugin to configure
voice control capabilities for most of Max2Play's central applications.
We have solutions for both Android and iOS devices to use for voice
control and the plugin directly generates some useful HTTP-Commands
based on your device's setup.

Those are just a few of the great improvements we have been working on.
There is much more to explore and, of course, much more to come in the
future. However, we never lost our focus on integrating the great
Squeezebox technology into our OS to realize the best possible
conditions for a versatile multiroom audio system. Building on the
Squeezebox Server, we continuously added new features for this system,
from Multisqueeze for creating as many players on one device as you
like, to Jivelite with its specific skins for touchscreen use and clear,
beautiful interface. All these different components come together in our
images to get the best out of the Squeezebox foundation.

If you have any general questions, ideas or suggestions, we would love
to hear them.
