balenaSound compatibility

[s-celles]

Hello,

I wonder if RadioDroid is compatible with BalenaSound (to cast webradios listed on https://www.radio-browser.info/ )
See https://www.balena.io/blog/turn-your-old-speakers-or-hi-fi-into-bluetooth-receivers-using-only-a-raspberry-pi/
I'm currently installing balenaSound on an old RPi 2 model B to give a try to both balena cloud and BalenaSound
and was looking for information here.
Any idea? opinion about this project?

Kind regards

Looks cool.

Without reading too deep, BalenaSound exposes RPi as a bluetooth audio receiver, which Android should not have troubles working with.

Maybe it has other usage modes? Tell us if you find something interesting.

There's also Boombeastic from balenalabs also ... https://github.com/balenalabs/boombeastic
See my questions there balena-io-experimental/boombeastic#59
Not sure my RPi 2 model B have bluetooth capabilities.
Maybe MPD (Music Player Daemon) have better chance to work on such a device !
