I have just finished network player built around RP3 and DAC, and I am very pleased with the sonic results. In this version, it is (very high quality built) black box, running RuneAudio, playing HQ audio files from my NAS.
Now, I am building preamplifier that would, among other features, have options to be controlled from network. Preamplifier control logic will be built (at least in the first version) with Arduino with Ethernet shield, thus will be connected through Ethernet port to other smart devices on intranet…
One of the ideas is that my network player could take control of preamplifier.
For example, when I, through WEB interface choose to:
- press play on player, preamp would wake up and switch to this player input.
- turn off the player, preamp would go to standby (turn off display…), or switch back to previous channel…
- change volume, preamp should change volume of built-in attenuator, not the player itself…
Since I am satisfied with RuneAudio, the initial Idea is to change existing web interface Rune is using, to retain current features that Rune have, but to extend it to send “commands” to my preamp.
Since I do not know the structure around RuneAudio, the questions are:
- Where can I find, on my RP3, initial web page that rune web interface uses, to try to modify it..
- I expect that all future updates of RuneAudio software will overwrite changes I make. (so I would need to update my web interface after each update)
- Can I make my own web interface (using original as template), and by changing some configuration file set it as default..
Thank you.
Maybe I am going into wrong direction, so any suggestion is welcome.
Thanks.
