[QUOTE="Crankshaft, post: 795833, member: 941"] Due to the high prices that used Squeezebox Touch boxes command, I decided to go the Pi route. So far I have been experimenting with the piCorePlayer/Squeezelite/Jivelite combo, and with the exception of touchscreen calibration challenges, it has worked very well. I am using the Waveshare 7" 1024x600 display, but am considering the official Pi display and the Smartipi case. Here's the big question: How stable are these Pi 'Squeezebox' players? My experience so far has been that it works fine for a while, then one day it crashes. Create new image, etc, etc. (My Linux skills are very basic). Before I go and shell-out more on a new display and case, SPDIF output HAT, remote-control etc, would it not be better just to find a 2nd hand Touch? [/QUOTE]
