This project is a Web radio player, based on rpi-buildroot (https://github.com/gamaral/rpi-buildroot) It uses MPD (Music Player Daemon) and MPC. The rasberry starts to play the radio at bootup.
Simply follow the build and SD card setup instructions in https://github.com/gamaral/rpi-buildroot, but use the raspberrypi_meuh_defconfig instead of the default one.
The aim is to demonstrate the power of buildroot to quickly build a light Web radio player, that boots fast (the radio starts to play in less than 20 seconds) It works headless.
This is a proof of concept, which does not mean that it cannot be fun, the target radio example is the famous http://www.radiomeuh.com
Next steps will be to add lcd touch screen support, to change the radio station and control the output volume.
Beside that, another project is to use RPI/Buildroot as a Bluetooth backend, for playing sound from a bluetooth source onto an amplifier. Coming soon !
