As an additional follow up, the software provided by Stefan is flaky. This is after months of testing and trial and error. The main concern is everything works fine when not licensed, but apply a license, which you have to pay for, and functionality goes away. I have reached out to Stefan several times and he basically stopped replying after the first time where he implied it must be something I am doing wrong. I have, however, provided him with solid examples of the iterations I went through in testing, again months & hours swapping out 3 different cards with 3 different pi’s and every possible combination to prove that the software is the problem. As of the latest release of his software, there is no indication that this was addressed or resolved.
Bottom line, it might be OK for audio but with all the variables and part of it being DIY and another piece being pay for license, I just cannot endorse this TiltAudio product. Just buy a PinSound card.
As an aside, I have spent many many hours on the PinSound audio card as well. I could discuss for hours, most people would lose interest in 10 seconds. If you want to make your own PinSound mix feel free to reach out. I think it is highly rewarding and a step towards 2.0, well maybe 1.5.
