Hi everyone,
If your eyes are the same than me :
Sharing my project: Eversolo-screen, a "now playing" display for Eversolo streamers (DMP-A6, A8, A10...) running on a simple Raspberry Pi plugged into your TV or any HDMI screen.
Recycle your old Raspberry Pi devices and remote controls

What it does:
Album art, title, artist, album, progress, and the actual stream quality (sample rate, bit depth, bitrate), all wrapped in a good-looking, simple, understated design.
A 3-page info panel, like a record sleeve: artist biography, album description and tracklist, production credits (label, studios, engineers, musicians)
Learning infrared remote: any old remote from your drawer controls playback, volume and the info pages, with a 1-dollar sensor
Six music sources working together (MusicBrainz, Wikipedia, TheAudioDB, Discogs, Genius, Last.fm), with local caching: anything you've already played shows up instantly
Interface in English, French, Spanish and German, one-click updates from the browser
Hardware side: a Pi 3 is enough (Pi 4 recommended), an SD card, an HDMI cable. The Eversolo is controlled over the network, nothing to plug into it. Near-automatic install in 3 steps with Raspberry Pi Imager, no command line needed for daily use.

Free for personal use (CC BY-NC-SA license: free to use and modify, selling forbidden), and the code is public. Screenshots and full guide here:
Feedback, ideas and testers welcome!

RAM mode to preserve the SD card: logs, browser cache and temp files live in memory, swap disabled, for a Pi that runs 24/7 without wearing out its cardNetwork-tolerant: survives Wi-Fi hiccups without false "streamer not found" alertsBoots straight into full-screen kiosk mode, admin pages protected by passwordInterface in English, French, Spanish and German One-click update from the browser when a new version is published

Install in 4 steps:
  • Flash an SD card with Raspberry Pi Imager: Raspberry Pi OS Lite 64-bit, SSH enabled
  • With the card still in your computer, run the preparation script:
    Code:
    curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kofekod23/eversolo-screen/main/tools/prepare-sd.sh
    bash prepare-sd.sh
  • Insert the card into the Pi, plug in HDMI and power: everything installs itself in 10-15 minutes
  • Open http://PI_IP:8080 in a browser: the assistant detects your Eversolo, you pick a password, done
