Hello Everyone,

First time builder here, just wanted to get some input on this monitor. I’ve read through some previous forums and found one with a vertical HDMI input as well as integrated speakers. I’m trying to go as slim as possible so will try to take this off the stand when assembling into the framework. The glass itself will be 70 in long and 22 in wide. I’ll be putting the monitor in a vertical position near the top of the glass. Then I’ll maybe put a poster board painted black as the backing (with a portion cutout where the monitor would be) Thanks in advance!

@jmartin1009 did you ever figure this out? Running into some trouble as well

@sdetweil so I tried getting on again after turning the pi off and now airplay doesn’t seem to work anymore? even tried deleting and redoing the git clone. Any suggestions? thanks in advance

@sdetweil thanks so much! Got it to work, now to get the metadata to appear. Appreciate it

Hello everyone! I’m on my first attempt at making a MM as well as my first attempt with coding using a rpi so forgive me if I sound uninformed! I’m attempting to install shairport to allow for airplay and have been following the directions up until I have to configure Shairport sync. Anytime I put in:

/etc/shairport-sync.conf

It says permission denied. I even tried sudo beforehand and it then says no such file or directory. Any help would be appreciated.

This is the instruction guide I’ve been following. Thanks!
