Max2play is a Linux distribution for media centers and home automation.

Or internet streams, and is remotely controlled through a responsive web app or any mod client (dedicated Android and iOS apps are planned for the future). It plays music from local USB drivers, network mounts (NAS) RuneAudio is a headless audio player for embedded systems (including the RPi), free and open source. OpenELEC (Open Embedded Linux Entertainment Center) is a small Linux based OS that turns a computer into a Kodi media center "home theater machine". Kodi can be installed as a package in any RPi OS, it's even supported in retropie. It has lots of add-ons, and can be controlled via a web browser or mobile apps, but apparently it can not run as a headless audio player.

Here's a comparison that includes the (Accessory – iPower - iFi Audio), which comes with such an amount of crappy audiophile-targeted marketing that I personally find it hard to give them money. The power supply used to drive the RPi may play a role in audio quality (switching noise etc.). set up RPi as Airplay Receiver (using Shairport Sync).

Using a USB audio device with Raspberry Pi.Those two appear to work without any configuration on the RPi, and are reasonably close to $2: PiDAC+ ($30) and the Pibow Audio Case ($15).So unless somebody proves this with a blind test, I tend to believe that Anything Above $2 Buys More Features, Not Better Quality The build in sound card of the RPi is not very good, so there's a variety of audio hats for the RPi, but most of them would require a custom case, and I have no idea what the sound quality is. see macOS GUI releasenotes which lists different firmware versions for gen 1 and gen 2, in versions 2.5.0/1 and and then again just after that. differences between Flirc gen 1 and gen 2 appears to be that gen 2 can to multikey macros.

The Flirc gen 2 can also use macros and long button presses. A profile is just a set of translations from remote button presses to keypresses. You can then plug the Flirc into another device, where it registers as a keyboard.
