Gorgeous build, m8. Well done. And here I was just going to disassemble a Squeezebox and put it in an enclosure like this. Yours looks like more fun. Love the blog too. Cheers!
Outstanding! Is there a way to program the display so that the name of the radio station stays on-screen, while the artist and title scroll from right to left so that you can see both in full?
Not sure why you would think something like this was simple. I've built similiar devices, and watched other videos of builds with the same router used as an internet radio, and even having tons of experience flashing and hacking little devices, "SIMPLE" is not a word I'd use. Pain in the ass and annoying as hell to have to go through all the steps necessary to beat a device into working the way you want it to work.
LOL @steve c: not sure why you would think something simple like this was faked. It would have taken more time to fake than it did to make. Link with schematics and firmware are at the link in my video description.
