hey
my kids love selecting and listening to audio books via moode.
the setup at home is a pi 3b+ with the official 7" touchscreen in a fitting case and external USB speakers
when on vacation they usually use their inexpensive agptek mp3 player with the downside that the firmware is lackluster (only short text is displayed, sort order is weird if not every track count starts at 1... eg 101,102,103...121 etc)
on domestic vacations I take my own travel router with me, so there's a VPN home and our own ssid
theoretically, I could bring moode with us then... the question is, how compact can the setup be to offer similar functionality?
what is the smallest touchscreen size moode still works reliably on? what is the smallest and least expensive pi that moode works well with a touchscreen on? a pi zero 2w?
has anyone of you ever built or used a travel friendly setup and could tell what worked and what didn't?
p. s. i just realize that I could also bring the audio book library along via USB and without a VPN xD
