If you have a spare SD card and need nothig specifically from max2play
you might just try piCorePlayer https://www.picoreplayer.org/ to see if

I have since added a USB DAC to the box and today I have completed the
setup by adding a FLIRC V2 so I can use the SBTouch remote to control
it.
Thanks a lot again to @ralphy for helping me to complete this project!

No. squeezelite and jive_alsa just use much less CPU but there is no
increase elsewhere. It seems that in my case using defaults (i.e. I
didn't specify a device at all) isn't the
I have set enableAudio=0 in
$HOME/.squeezeplay/userpath/settings/Playback.lua. However, this does
not keep jive_alsa from running and consuming CPU. Should jive_alsa run
with enableAudio=0?

That explains quite well why CPU usage is constant.

Went on to try Jivelite + Squeezelite. Squeezelite uses by far the most
CPU when playing but that's okay. I can get it to idle with negligible
CPU usage by using the -C option.
But I have issues with my build of Jivelite:

Of course, stupid me!

After further tests I'm not (yet) happy with my build of SqueezePlay:
even when idle jive_alsa uses 6% CPU time while pulseaudio uses
another 12%
jive_alsa is very easy to crash. Switching between a standard 16/44.1
mp3 stream and a 24/96 flac file is almost guaranteed to crash it

You're welcome. Please let me know about your findings regarding
displaying covers with your build.

Success: I have built SqueezePlay myself and now it displays all album
art as it should. I can now go on with my project.
Observations:
In Makefile.linux it says to install expat-dev. That probably means just
expat (I installed expat but didn't find or install expat-dev).
I have found that I

I have only ever run SqueezePlay from a shell prompt so far but never
seen any error
Meanwhile, I have tested with SqueezePlay-setup-7.8.0r1188 on W7 32bit
(br...) . Artwork displays without issues. I'd much prefer to run
Linux though.
Anyway, is this even the right place to ask questions about SqueezePlay?
Anyone? Would I be better off with Jivelite?
