    Which Raspberry Pi OS Should I Be Using?

    I'm trying once again to do a complete reinstall of PiCorePlayer to my Pi 4. I use a USB hard drive attached to Pi for my lossless library of ALAC. Pi is ethernet connected to my router and I stream using SB Touch. I want to be able to play my library files and Tidal.

    Last install I could not get Tidal to work on the Pi but it did work with LMS running on my laptop and using that server.

    I installed Raspberry Pi 64 bit OS last time. Should I be using something else?

      I'm confused. piCorePlayer is built on tiny core Linux, and includes the OS.
      There's no need to install any other OS first, indeed I don't see how you would install piCorePlayer on top of Raspian.
      Until recently: Transporter -> ATC SCM100A, now sold :-(
      House move forced change to: piCorePlayer(RPi2/HiFiBerry DIGI2 Pro) -> Meridian 218 -> Meridian M6

        Up and running. I even got Tidal to work which was big problem. I think setting players to synchronize on mysqueezebox.com made the difference but not sure.

          Spoke too soon. Now I can only play Tidal. Won't recognize library on USB Hard Drive. Says it's not configured.

              It didn’t that time. I’ve started from scratch and this time it seemed to work.

              now my problem is I can’t connect SB Touch to pCP. It will connect to laoptip LMS but not pCP.

              im about ready to through it out the window 🤬

                And I realize setting on mysqueezebox has nothing to do with reloading software on pi - at least it shouldn’t.
