Overall very good though could be improved. A competent player with nice UI and simple to use. Standout features for me: - Tidal Connect support made it a no brainer... slick - Intuitive navigation and consistent design - Well priced... who wants to pay monthly for Roon on top of Tidal! - unified search results... see stuff in my library alongside Tidal results - iOS friendly, responsive and works well with touch I also started to use the native CD ripper which was initially great. I did try to upgrade the ripping features with NanoSound CD (paid for plugin), but it didn't work. Beware of paid plugins because the development cycles are not always in sync with Volumio. The guys at Nanomesher have been helpful in trying to fix the issues, but I gave up. So, then I went back to the native Volumio ripper which started to bug out ... there was issue with having to insert every CD twice before they can be recognised. Also, plugging in an external USB CD drive to the RPi for long ripping sessions made it very hot. So, now I'm using dBpoweramp with my Mac instead. I have Volumio running on RPi4 which is mostly OK, but really I should use a more powerful device - assuming it would solve some problems. There could be a more favourable review if: 1) it would be more stable and scale across a bigger library better (RPi probably the cause of that) 2) the library updates and indexing could be a little smarter... more automated, e.g. watching for changes - or scheduling - or rules based - or something more than there is today 3) the introduction of some meta data editing in the library would be a good addition... especially if there was a easy way to fix compilation splits and missing album art 4) easy setup for remote access to my device so I can listen to my library in the same nice UI... I can't figure that out at all Despite the issues, I will stick with Volumio as I can see the trajectory is moving in the right direction. It's getting better with each release. Nice job overall team :)
