As a minimum a Squeezebox system consists of 3 parts 1 The LMS server This take music from a source (HDD, NAS or some other storage) and streams it to an "endpoint" or Player 2 The Player This can be a Squeezebox 'hardware' device or a software player 'squeezelite' being one. 3 A controller This can be a webpage provided by the LMS server a smartphone or software 'Jivelite' being one. > How does LMS help with this being a portable music player, like an iPod? piCorePlayer is a linux 'distro' that implements one any or all of the above systems (and does all and any very well) and CAN do what you wish however running all from an SD card as music storage is more complex and not recommended. I suggest for what you are trying to do its not the best way to go, try looking at other systems like "Volumio" which will run on RPi and should do what you want with less complexity https://volumio.org/raspberry-pi-display-and-volumio-touchscreen-music-player/ Jeff *Players:* SliMP3,Squeezebox3 x3,Receiver,SqueezeLite-X,PiCorePlayer x3 *Server:* LMS Version: Latest Nightly on Centos 7.5 VM on ESXi 6.5.0U2 on Dell T320 *Plugins:* AutoRescan/BBCiPlayer/PowerSave/PowerSwitchIII/Squeezecloud/Spotty/Player Groups *Remotes:* iPeng9/Orangesqueeze/PC/Jivelite/SqueezeLite-X *Music:* 522GB,1660 albums with 23087 songs by 5204 artists mostly FLACs *Want a webapp ?* See http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?104305-Webapp-for-LMS ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jeff07971's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=49290 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106833 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
