Hi guys,
Recently I started catching up with raspberry Pi's and started a couple of projects, of which one is a moode streamer with a Pimoroni DAC Shim that I managed to get working on a Pi Zero 2 W.
Joined this forum as I'm looking for solutions to the problems I discovered so far, so that the project gains wife approval.
1. She's a Spotify premium user. Sometimes she loses control from spotify connect, then she has to stop and start another track to regain control.
2. I'm a plexamp user with a library on a local server. How can I make the transition between the two services smoother?
3. Can I run a touchscreen somewhere away from the speaker? Would I just need another Pi with touchscreen running in Kiosk mode in Chromium?
4. Still didn't manage to get bluetooth going. I get the pairing code window, I enter the code I setup and it fails to connect every time
5. Airplay glitches. Limited testing available as only wife has an iPhone
. Does Airplay utilise BT or Wifi direct? I'm a noob at Apples.
Would any of the above be bottlenecks of the Pi Zero 2 W?
