    I like this but have to have the TV on just to hear the audio. So wanted to plug in some speakers.

    Plug in a USB 3D sound I have.

    I think it installed the driver the LED light flashed and then stayed on. Can I set the audio out put to it too. So it goes to it and the HDMI LCD?

    Here is the „Debug Information“ that looks like it added when I plug it in:

    Wow I got it working!

    In the tab „AUDIPLAYER“ under the „Status: Squeezelite is running with processID ####“ Can press „Edit Advanced Options“ and I picked from the long list „hw – Generic USB Audio Device, USB Audio – Direct hardware device without any conversions, CARD=Device,DEV=0“

    I guess no way to have it go out both the HDMI and this?

    But this is the nice way I can turn off the screen and still have it hear it now.

    Hi Raymond,
    Great that you got the system to work! You can also run multiple instances of Squeezelite with our premium plugin „Multisqueeze“. There you can choose one input HDMI and one for your USB sound card.

    Tested sync for both players to play my Squeezebox Radio and the max2play-XU4. As soon as I clicked „Synchronize“ it stop playing but the play list is on both now playing. They just both stopped.

    Got a Intel Compute Stick as a server running the Logitech Media Server. The 32GB one installed Ubuntu on it. Any way it did not „Synchronization“ when I click to do that.

    Uploaded this to my Google Photos to show how I did it but did not work.

    Don’t have the “Multisqueeze” on it. I will see if I can install it and test again.

    Just looked it says this:

    „Multisqueeze – run multiple Squeezelite Player simultanous on one device (Raspberry / Odroid). Needs an audiodevice for each player.“ I don’t need it to run 2 on one system. So did not install it.

    I see to run it both on the HDMI sound and the USB sound. I have no did that. But I guess that would be the way. Thank you.

    My try it later some time. I put my Odroid-XU4 out of the way now and take some time and work to move it to play it in the HDMI again.
