We currently have three different players implemented: Squeezelite (Software Squeezebox), Shairport (AirPlay) and MPD. The players differ in their complexity and their applications. For a Multiroom setup, we recommend the use of Squeezelite in combination with the Squeezebox Server. Shairport\u00a0offers easy playback\u00a0from Apple devices or iTunes.<\/p>\n
To compile the appropriate hardware (Raspberry PI and matching sound card) for the right purpose, we recommend our multiroom audio configurator<\/a>.<\/p>\n How to use the different Max2Play Bundles, you can see in this example of application for a multiroom audio setup.<\/a><\/p>\n[\/spb_text_block] [spb_icon_box title=“Squeezelite“ box_type=“standard-title“ image=“fa-volume-up“ color=“standard“ target=“_self“ animation=“none“ animation_delay=“0″ width=“1\/2″ el_position=“first“]\n is a software player with all Squeezebox functions:<\/p>\n Main\u00a0Applications: Multiroom Audio, High-End-Audio, Music Alarm<\/strong><\/p>\n[\/spb_icon_box] [sf_gallery gallery_id=“21286″ slider_transition=“fade“ show_thumbs=“yes“ autoplay=“yes“ show_captions=“no“ enable_lightbox=“yes“ width=“1\/2″ el_position=“last“] [spb_icon_box title=“Shairport“ box_type=“standard-title“ image=“fa-volume-up“ color=“standard“ target=“_self“ animation=“none“ animation_delay=“0″ width=“1\/2″ el_position=“first“]\n With Shairport, all music can be streamed directly to the Raspberry Pi 2 or the ODROID.<\/p>\n Main Applications: easy audio player solution to stream music from iTunes or Apple devices onto the Max2Play device.<\/strong><\/p>\n[\/spb_icon_box] [spb_icon_box title=“MPD“ box_type=“standard-title“ image=“fa-volume-up“ color=“standard“ target=“_self“ animation=“none“ animation_delay=“0″ width=“1\/2″ el_position=“last“]\n With the Max2Play extension, the administration and control of the MPD player is facilitated: installing a music drive, a playlist directory (easy mounting with Max2Play extension) as well as special options for a connected sound card.<\/p>\n Main Applications: simple audio player solution for playback of internet radio or local music.<\/strong><\/p>\n[\/spb_icon_box] [spb_text_block pb_margin_bottom=“no“ pb_border_bottom=“no“ width=“1\/1″ el_position=“first last“]\n In addition to the easy installation and administration of audio players, Max2Play also offers simple and fast integration of sound cards.<\/p>\n\n
