Hi, the team are proud to announce the release of a new piCorePlayer 3.10.
Because of the many changes and improvements and bug fixes and additions we decided to jump directly from version 3.02 to 3.10.
Actually, we have released two versions:
1. piCorePlayer3.10 which is a normal version like all previous pCP releases. The kernel and modules are vanilla versions from the official raspberry and piCore (tinycore) repo.
2. piCorePlayer3.10-Audio version. This version contain all the same improvements as the above mentioned version. But in addition we have added all the audio related patches that Clive (aka JackOfAll) made for the raspberry kernel. So here we have support for more i2s-DACs and we support higher sample rates etc.
As we have so many changes we unfortunately are unable to offer "in situ" update - so will need to burn the image (after unzipping the download) to your SD-card. Also the "newconfig method" via USB stick wont work for this version.
Please notice and try these additions (from "Squeezelite" web page choose "Advanced Options":
Samba is added - after many requests from you - so here it is from the "LMS" web page (you need to be in beta mode):

As always, please share your findings
