Project talk:Festival Radio
From CoMakingSpace Wiki
If you still want to use it as a normal AM/FM radio you could put one of these additionally between the amp and the Pi. --Patrick (talk) 01:23, 12 May 2019 (CEST)

Which Media Sources are you considering? Bluetooth? Spotify? Local Playback? This would most likely drive your software options (Volumio, Moodeaudio, Mopidy, etc.)
- I will probably use mostly local storage (SD card that is just shuffled by default?) and the occasional bluetooth connection. What would you think is best for that? --Lukas (talk) 11:42, 29 May 2019 (CEST)
- Well, for local storage you can use anything. For the ease of setup, I would check volumio and moodeaudio. How are you planning to control the playback? Are you planning to use buttons and a display or rather your phone (which would need a WiFi hotspot, which you need to stop when using bluetooth). For bluetooth, I can give you the same script as the musicbox is using. However, you know how stable that is.. Apparently, people have been successfull with using bluetooth playback in combination with Volumio. That might be worth a shot. If this does not work, check moodeaudio, since afaik it runs on a full blown raspbian.
Long story short: Bluetooth will most likely be a challenge. --NitramLegov (talk) 11:54, 29 May 2019 (CEST)
