Setting Up a Raspberry Pi as an Audio Server

0. Setup

This is optional, but I like to setup from fresh when the pi is just being used for one purpose:

Install the Raspberyy Pi Images: https://www.raspberrypi.org/software/
Install a fresh copy of Raspberry Pi OS Lite on to an SD card
Configure WiFi to run the pi headless (pay attention to the capitalisation of the network name, one wrong character had me scratching my head for a while):

I am having issues getting my Intel 520 integrated graphics card passing through on qemu. I am using Proxmox Virtual Environment 6.2-4.

I am getting some type of fault code when starting up a virtual machine:

qemu-system-x86_64 -machine q35 -m 2G -accel kvm -cpu host \
-device vfio-pci,host=00:02.0 -nographic -vga none \
-cdrom /var/lib/vz/template/iso/Win10_2004_English_x64.iso

Project Setup

Create a directory and run the following command.

npm init

For this tutorial, I will be adding an index.js file to the src folder, and this will be our entry point. Our file directory should look like this.

Don't use VPN services.

No, seriously, don't. You're probably reading this because you've asked what VPN service to use, and this is the answer.

Note: The content in this post does not apply to using VPN for their intended purpose; that is, as a virtual private (internal) network. It only applies to using it as a glorified proxy, which is what every third-party "VPN provider" does.

There's also this article about VPN services, which is honestly better written (and has more cat pictures!) than my article.
