“THe Home assistant integration is the best part about it, because all other plugins like spotify or youtube dont work for me. Which i was really looking forward to”

Helpful Report

“Lack of a realible YouTube plugin makes me consider other solutions instead of Volumio, unfortunately.”

“J'utilisais Volumio avec un RPI 3 et un dac audiophonics es9038q2m. Ca fonctionnait bien mais je suis passé sur MoOde audio car la prise en charge du bluetooth est gratuite. Le dsp ainsi que la gestion des genres et la lecture aléatoire sont mieux intégrés dans MoOde.”

“I use volumio with RPI,two in my home, and one dedicated PC Barebone. All these configuration with external DAC (mainly CAMBRIDGE). works fine with Qobuz , but the Spotify plugin is very slow . I prefer the older interface (classic)... Price is quite high for the annual subscription , but i don't find, for now, an alternate solution.”

Helpful Report

“I use it for both offline and online music with RPI4, Allo Kali, and Allo Piano. For offline music, it's excellent; online music with Spotify and its plugin is problematic; with Tidal, you have to pay to use the plugin. I've switched to moOde; when and if there are solutions, I'll quickly switch back, and the 5-star rating is guaranteed.”

“I've been using Volumio since 2021, first with a Raspberry and for 1 year with the Rivo Plus. I have a very good hi-fi system, so I can make statements about the sound quality of the Rivo Plus: it is really very good, especially with the extra power supply. But I'm not so satisfied with the Volumio software. For example, Quobuz Connect often does not work. I then have to shut down and restart the Rivo. That's annoying! But with my second system, where I use a WIIM Ultra, there are no problems with Quobuz Connect. The WIIM software is clearly more stable and better. Volumio is releasing more and more new devices, maybe they should invest more time in improving their software”

Helpful Report

“Love the player, exellent sound quality and simple to use app, not so fund of the new app design, especialy the start screen where you can nolonger see the cover art per player. Other downsides are: search function starts searching while typing the first letter, if you correct your search promt the player frequently crashes, it would be nice to type your search word and then pres enter of start to start the acctual search. Spotify often does'nt work, it does display the artists and albums but after selecting the track nothing happens, disabling and enabling the app solves the problem. I would love to have stats for nerds, providing information about the played track like bitrate, sampling freq, used codecs, number of channels etc.”

“I bought the primo assuming that Spotify lossless would work. I trust a solution will come or Spotify or Volumio has to go.”

Helpful Report

“Nice product if it meets your needs. I used to have the premium subscription but I cancelled it as I was not using most of its features. The biggest issue for my was the inability to easily play Youtube music.”

“sound is good but there is no spotify lossless as yet. There are also glitches from time to time.”

“I got a volumio preciso, rivo plus and lineo 5 and used it with my manley absolute headphone amplifier, soon after I got a naim uniti atom and it simply sounded better to my ears. Now I got a full volumio system just sitting at my desk.”

Helpful Report

“I use Volumio on my RPi 4 as a streamer, mainly with Spotify. A while ago it stopped working properly and despite reinstalling etc I haven’t been able to get it working again as a standalone streamer controlled with my phone. However my phone can now stream music to it via AirPlay which is pretty good, but means playback gets interrupted if I get a call or something. I would love to know if it’s possible to get it working as a standalone streamer again and also if there’s any way to speed up the boot time on the RPi4 (I already use a pretty fast SD card but it takes over a minute to boot up)”

Helpful Report

“It's good, but could be so much better. The UI has not changed in several years, and has always been just a bit too slow to be a commercial product. Unless this is fixed, it does not bode well for Volumio, unfortunately, as hardware and player makers are more likely to make their own software rather than license volumio.”

Helpful Report

“I love that Volumio exists, and what you get for free is fantastic, but there are a lot of frustrating elements. The plugin ecosystem seems much worse than it was a few years ago, and it feels like the product development has been drastically moving away from the free tier and more in the direction of absurdly priced hardware and paid plans. Volumio is still awesome, but I have little faith in the direction is going, so I'm setting my rating to build in the future I expect. This space is wide open for an open source project that has a different direction. See what Home Automation has done with their community; Volumio is in a very similar market and is doing a much, much worse job in my opinion.”

“I've run several versions of Volumio over the years on the same hardware (rPi3b, HifiBerry HAT clone). Library management, connection to SMB shares to play LAN files etc, always worked well but I had a perpetual struggle to get my primary use case (Spotify endpoint) working reliably. Volume control was also hit-or-miss at best, but that _might_ have been my cheap hardware / fixable with more tuning. Switched to Moode (with the bonus of using a Bluetooth connection for other streaming) and haven't looked back.”

Helpful Report

“System had good features but suffered some responsiveness/stability issues (needing to restart server etc.). Eventually opted for a commercial product.”

“Nice app, but some problems haring it continuous functioneel. No updates networks connection, problems with YouTube connection. My Nas list is not synchroniseren.”

Helpful Report

“Plays back FLAC files from a NAS or DNLA server perfectly, no qualms. Feeds the best signal I could ask for a DIY transport (Raspberry Pi 5) to my DAC. However this is a given as a Premium subscriber to handle purchased music FLAC files to this level. My gripe remains with the inability to negotiate with Spotify to have a lossless playback licence. Volumio is not the only company guilty here (so is Bowers & Wilikins on some other item I own). However £50 per annum is a steep premium for Premium if all I get is a better UI as incremental upgrades. I don’t want to subscribe to Qobuz (lacks Asian music) or Tidal US hip hop centric, not my music range) for lossless/ hi def. Part of the fun with Volumio is the DIY aspect of the hardware, but it soon gets forgotten if I have to plug my smartphone into the USB port of the DAC every time when I want Spotify lossless playback.”

“Did not succeed to make a connection between my Raspberry and my Synology. Your explanation was not sufficient, or not clear enough. Please explain the creation of a share and connect to the share in smaler steps and provide a scheme svp.”
