Hi all,
Looking to replace my old Sonos gear and found my way to this fine place…. Great software!
I have 4 Sonos zones within earshot of each other and would like to configure 4 snapclient instances on a single Pi. For this I would use a Pi 5. Reading some threads here it looks like the —instance option can be used to configure multiple clients.
I plan to use an existing Mac Mini running a recent version of Mac OS as a snapserver. The Mac also runs Jriver and the music is all flac files on a usb hard drive directly attached.
I see HiFiBerry recently released the DAC 8X (8 channel DAC) that should be able to decode the 8 channels. My amplifier is a Rotel 8 channel unit.
I have a couple of questions:
Are there any obvious reasons this won’t work?
Is 4 snapclients too many on a Pi 5?
How do I configure snapclient and RPi OS to route audio from the 4 snapclient instances to the 8 DAC channels? (I’ll post this question on HiFiBerry’s forum as well)
