[PROBLEM] Multiroom will not work

[Tim Curtis]

Performance issues aside, the OP could at least replace the Pi Zero W with a Pi Zero 2W so everything could run current 64-bit moOde releases. (If the physical enclosure of the receiver allows it, i'd go for a 3A+ or better.)

Personally, I think we should declare all those decade or more old Pi models to be unsupported, period. Doubling the effort on every release to produce a 32-bit version as well as a 64-bit version doesn't make much sense to me.

Just my 2 cents worth.

I sort of agree in theory because there will always come a point where in order to move any given software forward some amount of backward compatibility has to be sacrificed. In our case that point came at the onset of the migration to PiOS Bookworm where it became evident that the project only had enough manpower to migrate and maintain the 64-bit builds.

The 32-bit Bookworm builds could be done but it requires a dedicated developer with the time, expertise and desire to take that on long term.

Its a great Linux infrastructure type project for an interested dev :-)
