To play the stream on your Sonos, go to Radio by TuneIn > My Radio Stations. Open the Sonos app on your desktop (this won't work on mobile!). Add the stream to your Sonos installation You can open this in iTunes, VLC, your browser, or about any other audio client that supports streaming. Right click the M3U link (upper right), and copy the link address. If not, go back and check if you did everything as described. You should see a Mountpoint Mount Point /turntable.mp3 there. Now open your browser, and go to (default icecast2 port). Reboot the Raspberry Pi, to check if everything is set up correctly and because we have changed some configuration files and ensure Darkice is running. Sudo mv init.d-darkice /etc/init.d/darkice You can use the command arecord -l to check if your device has been detected. Now, connect the turntable to the Raspberry Pi, using USB. Connect the USB Turntable to the Raspberry Pi I use the tool 'IP Scanner' for MacOS to find the IP address of the Raspberry Pi.

You can now connect to your Raspberry Pi using SSH (Use putty on Windows and ssh on Unix).

If you want to use the Raspberry Pi with Wi-Fi, see this guide on how to do this: I have not tested Wi-Fi, but if your wireless network is good enough, there is no reason streaming should not work. If you are using the Ethernet port on the Raspberry Pi, networking and SSH should work out of the box with DHCP. This will enable SSH for us automatically. Luckily we can enable SSH by adding an empty file called ssh to the root of the SD card. Enable SSH before bootingīecause we are going to use the Raspberry Pi headless (without a display) and without keyboard attached, we need a way to control the device. You might try out a newer version, but this is not tested.įor instructions on how to get this on an SD card, see 2. After installation I'm using only 1.4GB of my SD card (and I even have some debugging stuff installed that is out of scope for this guide).įor my installation, I have used the November 2017 Stretch Lite release of Raspbian. Also, we do not need much disk space, probably anything from 2GB and up is good. As we do not need graphics or anything special, we can use Raspbian Lite. Prepare Raspbian on an SD cardįirst we need a clean installation of Raspbian on an SD card. This guide is focussed on this usecase, but might also be used to stream to other speakers as we are going to create an MP3 stream which is playable by virtually anything that can stream audio. This is a quick guide on how to use a Raspberry Pi to play modern turntables with USB output wirelessly on a Sonos installation. Sonos support for USB Turntables with Raspberry Pi
