I love it!

It gets used every day at my house, and i have build a ryobi battery powered portable speaker for when i am working outside. I typically use RPi3 and RPi0, with an amp-hat to power speakers.

does anyone else use it? and if so, what is your setup and have you found any decent hardware/solutions?

    Are you using groups with snapcast? Lat time I used it that was a major pain in the ass and made me switch to squeezebox.

    Afair the groups were named on the fly and you couldn’t create static ones (downstairs, house for example)

    EDIT: Found one of the threads and it is still open. https://github.com/badaix/snapcast/issues/308 Seems there is a workaround for home assistant, but that doesn’t look like it is really stable so to speak. I guess I’ll stick with squeezebox for now, the sync feature is good enough for me.

      If it wasn’t the fact that I always had iasues with spotify on LMS/SqueezeBox, I would still use it today. Songs stopping and/or randomly skipping a few times per hour killed my experience

      I started using Mopidy with Snapcast. My only issue so far is Iris’s spotify search that’s a bit of a mess

      Edit: I know the fix would be to stop using spotify ahah
