Note #304

@sikkdays thanks for the links, they seem interesting. The cool thing with mpd is though that there are so many clients for it available.

@sikkdays I was running Plex on my iMac but it consumes so much electricity! Therefor my take with a RP.

@sikkdays I've been looking at subsonic too, the only thing I didn't like was their official player and it seemed to heavy for the RP.

@jeena Interesting. I use Subsonic, subsonic.org on an ancient iMac running Mint. Been thinking of replacing that monster with RPi

@jeena I'm interested in volumio.org also worth note perhaps, andrewkelley.me/post/raspberry…

Absolutely :-P.

Yeah, they had 100k preproduced as far as I understand, Oscar where did you buy them?

Oh that is a really cool idea, I’m in! They’re kind of expensive anyway.

Awesome, I feel like 3d print a chassi next week. ;-)

Where did you get it and how long did you have to wait? I'm guessing they've got their production lines running a bit more smoothly than the last time around?

They ran out an hour or two after I ordered them though

Yep :D

I was thinking maybe this one http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:449877

So they did arrive today?

M had some as well that I know

Haha this looks so cute!

Ok, I got everything set up but sadly the latency is sooo bad, from pressing play on the phone to actually hearing anything it takes 13 seconds … :( mpd isn’t what I was looking for obviously, I want to have something like Spotify which starts playing fast and than caches stuff inteligently. I don’t really want to play on the raspberry pi and then stream what is playing to my phone, I want just the file delivered to the phone as fast as possible and then cached there so I can start and stop playing fast.

Have you tried playing with the buffer settings?
