Again - BIG THANKS to the entire piCorePlayer team. I gave them some $$ after my last success, I guess I need to dig deeper!
It seems now my goal is to buy 1 of every DAC that I can put on a Pi Zero. My original goal was to replace several Dell DAR players, looking for good (not fanatic) quality, with an integrated amp in most cases. I have a LMS running on a server in the basement. I didn't care much about the display or remote, but I can see how those features can easily be supported.
The HifiBerry hat is larger than the Pi Zero, but that was not a problem for this build. I first tried with piCore 6.1, but it would not work (I think it was clock init problems). I confirmed the card worked with a clean Buster Lite image, and yes, it plays. So before digging in and debugging I decided to try the piCore 7 beta and that worked!
I have only 1 thing that I noticed, but have not fully tested yet. When I aplay the Front_Left, or Right wav files I hear the sound out of both channels. Seems to be mixing mono to both outputs? Any thoughts.
