In Reply to: RE: For Qobuz, Volumio needs a yearly Subscription ................. posted by Cut-Throat on September 12, 2020 at 11:23:30
I had already paid for Audirvana months before and use that on my mac and stream Qobuz to Volumio on the Pi over UPnP. At the time only Tidal was available and the only way to get MQA was to use Audirvana to stream to the Pi. I subscribed to Qobuz when it became available and after a while realized I never used Tidal anymore so I gave it up. You really only need one service.

Glad this worked for you but I certainly would not recommend this solution to a newbie that wanted to stream Qobuz.
The ability to stream Audirvana to a Pi using WiFi and DLNA would be great if I could figure out how to do it.
Currently happy with MPD/DLNA mode in the MicroRendu as a way of getting Audirvana from my Mac Mini to my DAC.
Adding the Pi with WiFi allows use in areas without ethernet.
If you set up a Pi with Volumio, Audirvana will immediately recognize it as a DLNA endpoint and allow you to select it. As you can see I'm streaming 24/88.2 to the Pi at the moment.
I have uRendu doing that duty so I see no reason I can't get the Pi to do the same.
Audirvana also sees my dCS Network Bridge as a DLNA device but I haven't tried to stream Audirvana through it as yet.
And as you can see in the pic my Firestick shows up too.
if it plays music, of course.I've gotten Audirvana to play through a Sony soundbar on the local ethernet so far.
And Audirvana sees the dCS Network Bridge as a UPnP device and plays trough it.

So far everything has played. I have 3 RPi's around the house but only that one was active when I took the screen shot. I'll have to check the kitchen setup though now that I see that it didn't show up. It probably just needs a reboot. We were moving the routers around and it probably just disconnected.One thing I wanted to try is to get the Firestick to stream to the Raspberry Pi and Volumio. This way I could unplug the TV from the HT receiver. The problem would probably be latency even if it did work. It's gotta sync with the video. When I stream from Qobuz I have no idea how long it really takes for the music to start, nor do I care as long as it plays. The look ahead takes care of the next track in the queue so gapless playback happens. I've watched it happen during playback through Activity Monitor on the Mac. When you change the song midway through it sends the processors into a tizzy to catch up again. Luckily a quad core iMac is plenty of processor to do that and also to upsample or convert to DSD on the fly, all while doing whatever else you are doing.
