I also thinks it’s cleaner to use MPD as a backend, since it’s already installed and working and it makes the chaining of audio services more obvious and easy to control. According to its author, UpMPDcli has replaced gmediarenderer in solutions like VolumIO and RuneAudio, so it really seems a better solution. I finally turned to UpMPDcli which uses MPD as a backend, convenientely for us. I couldn’t understand documentation and make it work with pulseaudio.It needs gstreamer as new dependency, which is yet another way to play sound on linux.It’s a quite old project which was unmaintained for years until someone made gmediarenderer-resurrect.I tried briefly gmediarenderer but gave up for several reasons: Now I needed to choose a DLNA renderer to complete my requirements. I also added minidlna to the audio group so that it could watch for changes in the media folders $ sudo usermod -a -G audio minidlna $ sudo systemctl restart minidlna Renderer side Media_dir=A,/srv/dev-disk-by-id-md-name-nas-localraid/Musique/music db_dir=/srv/dev-disk-by-id-md-name-nas-localraid/Musique/dlna port=8200 friendly_name=”NAS upnp” inotify=yes album_art_names=Cover.jpg/cover.jpg/AlbumArtSmall.jpg/albumartsmall.jpg album_art_names=AlbumArt.jpg/albumart.jpg/Album.jpg/album.jpg album_art_names=Folder.jpg/folder.jpg/Thumb.jpg/thumb.jpg So I followed the same idea than from MPD mostly, and installed minidlna on the NAS to store the UPNP database. Client: will tell renderer to play media from server.
