I’m a newbee to all this, I don’t know how to proceed right now.
I plugged in the usb-c to my computer, and also an optical cable from the audio port to my AV-Receiver. When I turn on the switch, it says “Mn Cast Test” or something, seems to want to go through the test. At the end of step 4, which it says “Test #4: sound ok”. And then it stuck. All LEDs are off, I try to flash the firmware, but Edge browser can’t detect it.
Restart by unplug the usb-c or turn off and on the switch will restart the testing process.
What should I do now? How do I starts the “Squeezelite” which is suppose to be flashed?
Flash the software you need here :
I solved it, I installed the driver that online tool showed me, and then I can flash it according to the guide.
So the hardware didn’t come with pre-flashed squeezelite
Some wants Home Asssistant on it, some prefer Squeezelite others use it with the Radio app so I let you choose.
I understand, but in that case, in the purchase page it shouldn’t say
“Software it will come pre-loaded with Squeezelite and pre-configured”.
This is the page that says this: https://raspiaudio.com/product/mncast/
And in the “Mn Cast installation guide”, it also says " It is designed to run Squeezelite, which comes pre-loaded".
It’s misleading.
(P.S. I voted on the feature about ethernet port. I encountered some audio pause/mute when streaming from LMS, I believe it’s related to the wifi.)
