I’ve been using SB for years but it’s just a bit shit sometimes.

What I love about it is that it has Chromecast Bridgez meaning I can play music to my Google Home Minis.

But nowadays I have all my music in Plex and I’m using Symphonium to stream to my phone. Symphonium connects up nicely.to my Google minis, I just need something to replace my squeeze lite end points so I can send music to them from my phone.

Currently these are both running on Pis so if anyone can recommend an easy UPNP endpoint software for a pi, that would be great.

    Have you looked at snapcast? It’s one of the tools I’m going to evaluate for a similar use case. I’m not sure if it works with Plex OOTB but it the docs say it supports UPnP. Snapcast is actively maintained so you can just create an issue on github and see how they reply.

      This looks like a good shout. I have actually tried it out but it was years ago when I was trying to get a Sonos-like service and ultimately settled on Squeezebox.

      Maybe it’s time to try it again, thanks for the idea
