I have been using RaspyFi for awhile now and its a great project with terrific sound, the only thing I’m really missing is the possibility to play music from Spotify.
Found out that Pi MusicBox supports Spotify but the sound is not as good as on RaspyFi, maybe joined efforts between Pi MusicBox and Volumio would be a good idea? Looking forward to trying out the new Volumio as soon as possible.
Hi tprlo,
PiMusicBox relies on mopidy as its core, Volumio and Raspyfi use MPD. That is a precise choice, while mopidy offers spotify playback it has not the advanced settings and flexibility as MPD. So it is not feasible to cooperate with PiMusicBox to deliver spotify playback because our 2 distros relies on different sound servers.
I’m working hard to get spotify (and hopefully other services too) working on Volumio, but this is really challenging.
If you wanna deep into further details let me know, I’ll be more than happy to satisfy your questions!
