[mythtv-users] Standalone music player with mythfrontend on Raspberry PI?

[George Galt]

I too am disappointed about the loss of the Squeezebox line of products as
my Squeezebox3 just died.  However, I replaced it easily using a
RaspberryPi, ArchLinux and Squeezeplay (headless using xvfb).  I now
control it using the Squeezebox app on my iPad/iPhone.  It was a cheap
replacement at $35 for the Pi and about $5 for the power supply.

Directions are here:

build for Arch is here: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=56769
