Hi @Corjan,

Thanks for the tip. This is the first executable that actually seems to do something on my RSPI 4!

I'm getting the following error though when running it from another machine via SSH (after a successful run of setup.sh):

Code: Select all

pi@raspberrypi:~/Documents/Air Player 3.7 Home Use armhf $ ./AirPlayerPi4
29-05-2020 16:57:30 INFO AirPlayer: Version 3.7.1 HOME_USE 
29-05-2020 16:57:30 INFO AirPlayer: HW id = b7302621e1aac6960fbff6776400ec03

29-05-2020 16:57:30 ERROR HardwareRaspberry: Failed to initialize bc2835 library
Very little documentation indeed :) A Google search of "Failed to initialize bc2835 library" doesn't return any results. Would this be referring to the BCM2835 SoC (and there's a missing 'm')? I think Raspberry Pi uses the BCM2711B0 SoC and the Zero W uses BCM2835.

Any ideas?
Thanks!
