My daughter and I made some progress with our #volumio project. Since we're still undecided about the case (maybe we're waiting for the updated SmartiCase to be available), we've decided to build something on our own for now. The project needed almost all of our "useful" duplo stones. The USB soundcard is hidden inside. #hifi #nerdparenting
Yesterday, I've set up a #volumio device for my daughter together with her.
We regularly go to the library and I rip the audio book CDs she borrows with a one-click script based on #abcde and copy them to the family NAS. She then used to listen to them with my Volumio (streaming from the NAS) in the living room. Now she can listen in her own room as well.
The new device is essentially a Raspberry Pi with a touch screen. The hard part now is to build a case for this thing.
