I want to play my Nasbox files which are FLAC, my Quobuz subscription, ideally with a nicer front end than Quobuz all on a common RPi based player, which could have the Digione or Boss (or possibly PecanPi) Hat on the back? I would like to be able to auto back my server upto a second remote NAS (Pi Based), but this is probably something for another package. So what are other people using, what are the opinions of Roon/Volumio/ANOther? I've not played with either yet, Roon appears to have the better reputation, I spoke with a friend over lockdown who claims its amazing, but advised not to try the trial unless you could afford it, because everything else is a bit crap in comparison. The only screen piCorePlayer support is the official RPF 7' Raspberry Pi touch screen which will work correctly out-of-the-box. now at 67Euro a year, I'm not a million miles from a Roon subscription. By adding a touchscreen and install Jivelite you get a nice looking system that resemble the function of an original Logitech Touch. Which means I'm on the superstar subscription. I moved to Volumio which has been rock solid stability wise, but to get Quobuz I need to subscribe to myvolumio, and I intend to have probably 4 players in the house (so probably more ultimately). I started with PiCoreplayer on the RPi which worked ok, but I found while the player aspect was stable, its output to the screen would crash quite regularly. I also use laptop and phone for Quobuz when using headphones. This feeds a Raspberry Pi 3 with a waveshare touchscreen and Allo Digione HAT for SPDiF out into a DAC (MF X-DAC v3, the Pi and screen are in the MF case).
I currently use a Netgear NAS box with a fair amount of audio files in FLAC, I also use Quobuz for streaming audio.
