peppy Meter with snapcast client (solved)

[karba78]

Thank you Balbuze for the plugin, saved me hours of trial and error with peppymetter and peppyalsa i am running volumio 3 with an IQAudio board all local sources work perfectly and move the peppy metter needles. (files, radio) even spotify works fine i can also play music from my snapcast server but this does not move the needles. i suspect the snapclient daemon directly connects the incoming pipe to the DAC Hardware. see snap client conf below Is there a way to have the snapcast stream connect to the same entrypoint as spotify this way peppymetter would also receive the signal copied also spod.conf Many thank's

------------------------spopd.conf [spop] spotify_username = xxxxx spotify_password = yyyyy high_bitrate = true refresh_token = undefined audio_output = sox pretty_json = true search_results = 50 cache_path =/run/shm

[sox] output_type = alsa output_name = volumio
