Anyway, just to say I followed the instructions on Git to install this in V4.1 & it worked flawlessly. Thank you to all involved.
Using an IQaudIO DAC Pro I just changed the reference from hw:1 to hw:0 in asound.conf.
I have a 2nd MoOde audio player, one in a bedroom for headphone use only & I will want it to have a different spotify-connect name, looking at the instructions it will just be a case of amending "spotify-connect.sh" accordingly:
Code:spotify-connect.sh
Code:#!/bin/sh
cd /
cd home/pi/spotify/spotify-connect-web
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/pi/spotify/spotify-connect-web python main.py --playback_device softvol -m Master --mixer_device_index 0 --bitrate 320 --name "ENTERNAMEHERE" --key /home/pi/spotify/spotify-connect-web/spotify_appkey.key
cd /
Hmmm... with the simple Raspotify method, I haven't had to do any naming changes. Without any editing, it ends up looking like this:
raspotify (name) , with the name being the moode player device (network?) name. I have a couple different players with different names, and it seems handy enough.
Did you have to do the above for it to work at all, or does doing that give you a better name?
I will be looking into Ravi's method here soon. For the gapless play goodness alone, it sounds like a better solution. But, I imagine a simpler method is still pretty attractive to the masses who have never typed on a Linux command line before.
Other changes I make are the selecting of the BITRATE=320 audio quality shown earlier, and setting the starting volume level to something lower than 100%:
Code:# By default, the volume normalization is enabled, add alternative volume
# arguments here if you'd like, but these should be fine.
#VOLUME_ARGS="--enable-volume-normalisation --linear-volume --initial-volume=100"
Maybe I could write this all up in a procedure for Raspotify, for those who want simple solutions.
Hi Jon or anyone else that can kindly help.
If I want to disable volume normalisation, how do I do this?
Do I need to use the line:
VOLUME_ARGS="--disable-volume-normalisation --linear-volume --initial-volume=100"
This doesn't seem to work for me.
Appreciate your advice
