I don't think Moode and forked-daapd can co-exist together on same device as they both rely on many of the same services.
However, forked-dapps is flawless in the sense that it:
I don't have iTunes, iPhone, or Windows (only Linux) and sync'd playback has plagued me until now. For now forked-daapd works great as a stand alone device. All my MoOde's are in perfect sync. I have not tested different (non MoOde) airplay devices yet.
- Can find all my players
- Allows individual volume adjustment for each player
- Can seperate radio stations from regular music
- Can play podcasts
- Can play audio books
- Web based, like MoOde (accessible on almost every device including smart TV browser)
Someday, it would be awesome if MoOde could incorporate the finding and playing to other devices. I looked at the projects github but as a non coder, it's all beyond me!
In think they must be apble to co-exist, in owntone, you can disble the "local" playback, and also make a blacklist of devices. So you cloud make sure no "loop" is created.
Owntone is also able to play a fifo named pipe.
What i then would suggest for Moode: being able to output to a named pipe, (and
at the same time to the local device).
If someone could give some hints, on that toppic, would be nice.
End goal for me would be: Moode plays to my Hifiberry, wontone picks-up to fifo-pipe, and plays to all othe airplay /chromecast etc devices.
