Hello,

Here is my latest toy, an RPi with HifiBerry AMP2, in a box, with connectors and added volume/mute button and IR remote with volume/mute as well as Roon play/pause/next/previous. The IR receiver is at the end of a long cable and in a strategic position while the box is semi-hidden under the bed.

Very nice – and thank you for sharing, especially the scripting of the IR stuff. I’m pretty sure it will make some people quite happy. :smiley:

the JSON part was a bit of fun… But it’s quite practical!
