I'd recommend to have a look at deadbeef. The GUI is pretty customizable and at least in the playlist view you can display all the file properties and tags you like. Source: over 1 year ago

I use moodeaudio You can disable library indexation / update at boot Works pretty well on a raspberry pi 2 I don't know about boot time though as mine is always on... Source: 12 months ago

You can put (moode)[https://moodeaudio.org/] on the rpi and have an mpd, Spotify, and airplay server very easily. Source: about 1 year ago

- MoOde or Volumino - these pieces of software have images that can run on each raspberry pi. They will allow the pi's to show as airplay and spotify destinations. Volumino also has a snapcast plugin. Volumino also has a homeassistant integration for control from there. Source: about 1 year ago

If you don't mind doing a little work, a raspberry pi (2, 3, 4, any of them work) with moode works great. It'll do airplay for streaming from your macbook and MPD for playing your library off the sd card. Source: about 1 year ago

Here I think I can give something in return. Check out https://moodeaudio.org/ and see if it fits your needs. Source: over 1 year ago
