I have an Odroid XU4 running DietPi with LMS 8.1.1 and a Squeezelite player. In my study I have an iPad1 on a B Zeppelin running Squeezecast. The squeezelite player works fine with Spotty, but the squeezecast will freeze (requiring iPad reboot) unless in File Types I set Spotty ogg to disabled.

I just bought iPeng and am loving it, although there are some things I still need getting used to. I found when I run iPeng in the background on my iPad the volume buttons affect the volume of my squeezebox and not just the volume of my iPad. I now have to quit iPeng to be able to change my iPad
