Thank you for purchasing Topping DAC E30! E30 is a high performance DAC with USB, coaxial and optical inputs. It is compatible with up to 768kHz/32bit and DSD512. E30 is designed for full digital volume control and equipped with LED display screen. It can be used as not only a DAC but also preamplifier. We believe that high-quality E30 could bring you more fun at enjoying HIFI music.

A seemingly operational pCP player can be obtained via net booting, but only for wired Raspberry Pi 3B’s. More information # Netbooting piCorePlayer 3.x
Build a Squeezebox Player using a Raspberry Pi and Squeezelite, using the piCorePlayer image, which comes complete with OS and libraries. Info Raspberry Squeezie was one of the first tutorials describing how to put a piCorePlayer together. Unfortunately it is no longer available so I found a copy on the WayBack Machine and reproduced it here. I couldn’t find any contact details for the original author so its reproduced without permission.

This project is to create a simple LMS server with the library on an attached USB HDD. This is the LMS server I use day to day and it is also for pCP testing. What was used #Hardware # Raspberry Pi 4B - 2GB Official RPF 5.1V 3A PSU Toshiba USB 1.5TB Hard Disk Drive (HDD) SanDisk Ultra 8GB SD card Software # piCorePlayer 7.0.0-b6 (piCorePlayer7.0.0b6-64Bit.img) LMS Network Diagram #graph TD B[8-port Network Switch] B -- |Ethernet cable| D[RPi4B - pCP LMS] D --- |USB cable| H[(USB HDD)] Steps #Step 1 - Download pCP Download piCorePlayer—see Download piCorePlayer.
This project outlines how to build a basic “standalone” piCorePlayer. As it is truly standalone, there is no method to control Squeezelite once the build is complete and disconnected from the network. The only method of playing music is via the LMS auto start command “randomplay tracks”. There is not even a way to start/stop tracks or adjust the volume, pretty useless but it shows the basic starting point. The next step will be to add some form of controller.
How to auto-start Squeezelite when power-on your USB DAC #If you have an USB DAC (or an amplifier with integrated DAC) correctly configured in pCP (by setting in squeezelite settings: USB AUDIO as audio output device and hw:CARD=xxx into output setting section - where xxx is the Linux device name of your DAC which you can see by expanding the same output section - ) you can get the problem described below.
