Die Installation war einfach. Einfach die Seite [1] in Chrome öffnen, das Board per USB anschließen und die Squeezelite Firmware installieren.
In #MusicAssistant tauchte dann direkt ein neues Wiedergabegerät auf. Nachdem ich den zweiten Esp installiert hatte, konnte ich die beiden zu einer Squeezelite Gruppe zusammenfügen und hab jetzt synchrones Audio in der Wohnung. 👍
Der Sound ist gut, soweit ich das beurteilen kann.

Is it possible to display new additions front and center in Music Assistant? I'd love to have something similar to Recently Played and Random artist/album on the Home page.
An alternative would be to have a 'recently added' playlist, for either albums or tracks?

I have my music on a remote share, but it's also on Jellyfin.

Oh! Oooh. That makes things a lot simpler.
I hooked up my voice assistant PE directly to my powered speakers and added it as a player in Music Assistant.
What is my old pie going to do now, running picoreplayer on it seems a bit redundant for my needs? Poor thing, it has served me well.

I can also use my phone as a player, though it doesn't work perfectly. Unless I keep the screen alive, the music pauses after a few minutes.
But, wow! Music Assistant is great!

Does #MusicAssistant really classify everything as low quality that is not lossless? 🤨

I get the distinction between lossless and lossy codecs, but giving both a 128 kbit/s MP3 and a 256 kbit/s AAC the same orange “LQ” badge is wild.

What is the best way to listen to music from #MusicAssistant locally (on the client running the browser, not the server)?

This thread (github.com/orgs/music-assistan) mentions a built-in web player, but I couldn’t find it. Is this in #HomeAssistant? AirPlay to macOS would be another option, but that didn’t work for me.

The next best option seems to be #Snapcast. It works out of the box. Still wondering if that’s the best option. How do you handle this use case?
