RE the original question about Radio options for fire and forget.
In looking for something else to use while i am still trying to get DOS2 working consistently
Ran across an old RPI3 with a Digi (SPDIF) output running VolumeIO and updated the image to the latest.
(thinking i can plug it into the phantom directly to see if that works better than the dialog does)
and noticed : **VOLUMEIO** has Radio and Podcasting support built in
In theory this is even better than spark.
Just put it on your network connect it to the phantom via SPDIF.
access the devices web page and start it streaming.
not sure how well it will just keep running or not (my past experience is it needs a reboot about every day or so)
but
there is a VOLUMEIO plug in to reboot and to autostart
so you could in theory put a radio station in a play list and it would start playing when it starts up after rebooting every day.
mabye something to try
.
