F.A.Q

Why isn't https://myhubox.local working on my Android device?

Even the very latest version of Android does not have support for using .local names on your home network. Most home routers should allow you to access https://musicbox instead. Alternatively, you'll need to configure an IP address reservation (or similar) on your router to ensure the IP address of your Pi Musicbox system does not change between reboots and simply bookmark that particular IP address.

Can I use the free version of Spotify?

No, you must have a Spotify Premium account. Spotify does not allow free users to stream using third party clients.

Can I use Spotify radio?

Unfortunately Spotify's current libspotify SDK does not support this functionality.

Where can I find the source files and submit improvements to Hubox and Pi Musicbox?

https://github.com/pimusicbox/pimusicbox

Can I use my Spotify account on several different Musicboxes at once?

No, this is a Spotify restriction.

Can I get Pi Musicbox to play a song, playlist or radio station on startup?

Yes, configure the autoplay functionality in settings.ini or the settings webpage. Search the forum for examples.

Will you add support for XYZ streaming service?

Support for additional streaming services in Pi MusicBox depends on support in Mopidy which may or may not be available yet. Please search the forum for more information regarding the streaming service you're interested in.
