I got a Raspberry Pi and installed Volumio on it. I was able to get everything going using my iPad. It found my NAS and my other computers as well. I have been able to play some stuff from the NAS. My iTunes is a mess so I haven't been able to see all of my music files. I need to go through iTunes and clean up a bunch of stuff. I've got a bunch of low res stuff I need to get rid of. I installed the Spotify and Youtube plugins for Volumio. They both work just fine. I've got a couple of questions about Volumio.
1. Can I send Youtube video to my TV from the Pi using the HDMI?
2. From my iPad using the Spotify app I can stream to the Volumio. I can also do the same in Tidal. If I do not have the device in the Spotify app as Volumio I do not have Volumio as an option to stream to in Tidal. Am I missing a setting somewhere? I can also access my Spotify account directly within Volumio and am not having any issue with that.
3. Is there a setting in Volumio that turns off the volume control from within Volumio? I would like to only use my preamp to adjust volume.
4. Volumio finds my Mac and my son's PC on the network. I have shared files on those machines but they don't show up in Volumio. How can I get those files to show up?
I was surprised how easy this was to get up and working. It works really well.
