OP25 On Pi

[toolman60]

Anyone have an image of PI SD card with OP25 that has audio pipe back to a Windows or Linux PC. Pi 3 Mod. B.

Have no problems getting OP25 to run.

I bounced my B+ model off of the fireplace . Been fooling with it for days and could never get it to send audio back to pc via Ethernet or get it to connect to BT speaker.

I don't have an image, but if you just install Raspian Buster Lite and then proceed with the installation of OP25, I and others can certainly help you get audio piping over to a PC (over UDP) -- using VLC on the Windows end to listen.

To pipe audio over UDP from the PI to a windows machine:

On the OP25 commandline, add: -u 23456 -w -W 192.168.0.107
- replace 23456 with the UDP port of your choice and 192.168.0.107 with the IP address of your Windows machine

Then on Windows, install VLC. Then create a desktop shortcut for VLC.

Assuming your VLC is installed in c:\program files (x86)\, edit your VLC desktop shortcut "target" to be:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" --clock-jitter=500 --network-caching=0 --demux=rawaud --rawaud-channels 1 --rawaud-samplerate 8000 udp://@:23456
- again, 23456 should be the same port number you used on the OP25 commandline.

Then, make sure that you go to Control Panel / Windows FIrewall / Advanced and add an Inbound rule allowing access to UDP Port 23456 (or whichever port you choose).


I have OP25 running all the time on a machine. When I feel like listening to it, I just click the VLC shortcut on my desktop.

Thanks guys. After my nerves get settled I will give that a try Mike.

toolman60 - I too have OP25 running 24/7 on my Pi. I listen to the audio via VLC on my PC as described by Mike (mtindor). He helped me through the process when I was first playing around with OP25 on a Pi 4. If you get stuck, post your rx.py script (or shell file you use to launch it).
