Using Raspberry Pi as wireless airplay speaker receiver
53,327
Publicado 2012-12-27
-Raspberry Pi
-SD card (2GB is plenty for this)
-USB Wifi adapter (I used Edimax EW-7811UN nano adapter as it is suitably tiny and is well support by the RPi community)
-Micro usb cable for power
-An ethernet cable for initial setup (can be bypassed if you instead use a keyboard and monitor to setup the Pi)

Thanks, not only did I find a new way to use AirPlay (currently using an old iphone) but I found new music to stream to it! Great work!
-
Thanks for putting that masterpiece of a song in the description. Also cool thingy. Cheers!
-
Cheers! Song is Tsim Sha Tsui by Jack Steadman (singer of Bombay Bicycle Club) I'll post a link in the video description.
-
I love the song!

Have you had or heard of a glitch in the audio every so many seconds like a brief skip in the track but every 15-20 seconds on the dot. Thats why I scraped this idea but maybe it was the build or the audio device. Any ideas. I'm looking to just stream audio from a bluetooth receiver pi to other wifi receiver pi speakers?
-
Sweet! Awesome job
-
If you use RaspBMC you can use AirPlay for Movies aswell...
-
thanks for the input! I figured it wasn't good for an airplay system. Too bad! and it's quite expensive in Eastern Europe, it's 70 bucks!

Everything works well, up until the point where you have to ''Installing Perl Net-SDP" then the it says to alert the author because some file is missing?
-
Yeah I have that was me too! You just need to run the command as root, so sudo at the beginning :)
-
(i think you've solved this now) yeah those files are missing but I don't know what they're for, and they don't seem to cause any issues.
-
Does it work for android devices?
-
Curious what song you played for the demo? BTW. Great project. I love raspberry Pi
-
Yeah not great. The problem is that the Raspberry Pi doesn't have a dedicated digital (mp3) to analogue (headphone connection) converter and so it just approximates it by rapidly turning on and off the output (PWM). May get a few pop sounds too. Not audiophile quality but certainly listenable.

Hey dude, How's the audio quality? Any problems , cracking sounds or anything?
