CLIENT ONLY

Man .. I jumped thru 50 million hoops but I have it working with the recent version of snapcast on a kodi system running under DietPi 64 bit which is a striped down version or Raspbian.

  1. I first had to apt install snapcast and get it talking to find out my card settings that worked on bootup.
  2. Then installed the osmc snapcast plugin for kodi
  3. you then have to copy the service file like stated and then some serious editing to snapcast.startup
    ADDONSETTINGS=cat /root/.kodi/addons/script.service.snapclient/settings.xml
    ADDONDIR=" /root/.kodi/addons/script.service.snapclient"
  4. then edit the system service file to ExecStart=/bin/sh
    /root/.kodi/addons/script.service.snapclient/resources/bin/snapclient.start
    and remove restart=always or it will always restart with the systemclt stop command.. Kodi can start it with the
    plugin but can not stop it
  5. I also had to make my own settings.xml from the default example
  6. Copy the snapclient exactable from user/sbin to the recourses/bin directory under the plugin as I use Pluseaudio
    YEP that works for me too it blanks the client when kodi plays and restores snapclient just fine..

Let me know if you need help setting this up .. Also the plugin will not list cards as I cant write python think this is why I had to make my own settings.xml... If you ever got back to coding this I'll be glad to help out as a tester
