I even found a (German language) 'How-to' (https://blog.natenom.com/2015/09/raspberry-pi-automatisch-herunterfahren-durch-spielen-einer-bestimmten-datei-in-mpd/) that explaines how playing a prepared mp3 file (extra information in the meta data) in MPD can be used to shutdown the raspi. But what I was looking for was a fully automatic way - you put the record to play, go to the place where you are listening and can forget about shutting down the Raspi - until you need it again perhaps two weeks later.

I simply direct LMS (via iPeng) to a special m3u-playlist stored in LMS' playlist folder that directs to the Icecast stream on the phono Raspi ("IP-ADDRESS"): Code: -------------------- #CURTRACK 0 #EXTM3U #EXTURL:http://IP-ADDRESS:8000/phono #EXTINF:-1,Phono http://IP-ADDRESS:8000/phono -------------------- > There is also a way with Alsa using a specific "device" that monitors an > audio sources - which is what waveinput usually does by copying to LMS > the audio that is sent to PC speaker.

But I get the same "busy" message using dsnoop instead of hw:1,0 PCP (always latest version) on RasPi 3 with PhatDac (player & server) PCP on several RasPis 2 +3 2 Airplay speakers (Sony SA-NS510) integrated via Airplay Bridge Plugin ------------------------------------------------------------------------ streampunk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=66210 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49584 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
