I've been doing a lot of reading on networked audio streaming, and am looking for some advice. Must haves: centralised playlists, streaming over wi-fi (5GHz), decent quality audio, controller app must work on iPhones TL DR: looking to setup the ability to stream FLAC files from my NAS to various speakers around the house, using an iPhone as the control point. Nice to haves: the same music playing in two rooms at once, internet radio, may introduce a streaming service like Spotify at a later stage. My music collection comprises FLAC files (my CD collection ripped) that reside on a share on my QNAP NAS. Via Bluetooth into a portable Bose speaker via a Chromecast Audio into my Harman Kardon stereo integrated amp I currently access this from my iPhone using the QNAP QFile app, and another app called FLACbox which is a little unstable when accessing network shares. None of the speakers are near an ethernet connection point. This kind of works, but has some limitations. I am wondering if, with the addition of some Raspberry Pis and DACs, and the right software, I can achieve something better, both in terms of SQ and convenience and flexibility. The NAS is not a high-powered model, it has a Marvell CPU with only 512MB RAM. I can run MinimServer on it, but would prefer to keep it as a file server only. I have a Raspberry Pi 4 (headless) which is currently running my VPN server, and Pi-Hole - both in Docker containers - so it is not exactly over-worked.īoth the Pi and the NAS are networked (ethernet), however none of them are anywhere near any of my audio systems. I'm happy to acquire more RPis (maybe 3A/B or Zero models so no heating issues, and cheaper) along with DACs (HAT /USB) to play into my existing audio systems. For the audio feed into the Harmon Kardon amp I'd want good quality, the others not as important. With DS216Play this time (I did mention in my opening post -).I've read about software like Logitech Media Server, PiCorePlayer, MoOde Audio, Volumio, RoPieee etc. Thank you so much for taking the time on this.unfortunately Docker too is incompatible. Type your typical Synology IP address with port :58050 in your browser and it should start like before, in my case IP address is 192.168.212.158:58050, the only difference is you won't find Bubbleupnp icon in your Synology app center, you always have to use IP address, easy to do shortcut in your favourites barĬongratulation, I've spent 3 days figuring out how to including messing around with terminal commands and ports bridging before I found solution as there are no instructions online so hopefully it'll work otherwise the only other way is to use teamviewer and do it online with you □ Edited Augby kukynasĬongratulation, I've spent 3 days figuring out how to including messing around with terminal commands and ports bridging before I found solution as there are no instructions online so hopefully it'll work otherwise the only other way is to use teamviewer and do it online with you □ Go to container menu and you should see it running as per below Next step is to just check that "Run this container after wizard is finished" is activated as per below, hit "Done" button Next go to "Network" page as per below and click "Use the same network as Docker Host", new message window appear as per below, ignore that.this is really important step, if you forget to click it you have to repeat everything from start Next click Advanced Settings button as per below, new sub-menu will open Hit Launch button and follow below steps, first click "Execute container using high privilege" Go to Image menu and you should see it downloaded as per below Go to registry menu and type bubbleupnp in the search bar as per below, hit enter.Ĭouple of them will show up, select second one and hit Donwload button as per below Once done open it and it should look like this First of all install docker from your synology package center
