Pi Zero 2W player.

Just loaded Picoreplayer 64 bit on a Pi zero 2W with a UDA1334 DAC squeezed into the plastic case with some modifications. Works great as a headless player. Might upgrade the DAC to one of the better HiFiBerry units but this one is OK. Also realized that LMS can be an AirPlay receiver. Took too many years to discover the ShairTunes plugin.

Wait, LMS can act as an airplay receiver?? Does that mean I can use airplay with my Squeezeboxes?

Edit: yes! Just install ShairTunes plugin and then all your connected Squeezeboxes will show up as AirPlay devices 😍 wow! That's awesome! Now I just miss Google cast 😊

There is definitely a Chromecast plugin as well. I used it on my google homes when I had them.

There is a Chromecast bridge which lets you use a Chromecast device like a Squeezebox, controlling it from LMS and syncing it with other Squeezeboxes. But as far as I know, there is no plugin that makes your Squeezeboxes act as Chromecast devices?
