Hi all,
I have been looking for the best software to turn my RPI3 into a music streamer for my HIFI system (through an USB DAC). It will mainly be used for Spotify premium, but might also in the future be for Tidal HIFI and maybe a few local FLAC files, just to try it out. Preferably it should be spotify connect, which seems to be possible with pCP. The very interesting points for me about the pCP, is its ability to run in RAM, making it safe to cut the power without proper shutdown, as I want to cut the power from the RPI based on the trigger of my amplifyer, as I do with many other devices e.g. my DAC. However, I do not have an always powered on PC/NAS or anything else, which can run the LMS. I basically want the RPI to be standalone, meaning the RPI should also run the necessary LMS. This however, will as I read it, violate the nice property of no SD card writes, and thereby the setup is not power safe anymore and can corrupt the SD card if the power is pulled in an write cycle. So is there any way, to keep this property when the RPI is both running pCP and LMS? Maybe the LMS writes can be moved to e.g. an attached USB stick? Is it only chache or also other things which needs to moved? Have anyone tried this? I hope someone can help me here :) Regards Jesper ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mxjelle's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=70073 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=112014 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
