Unofficial Volumio3 images (with MyVolumio) for BananaPi M1

Banana Pi M1 is the first SBC released by the BananaPi team, back in 2014. Besides being almost 10 years old, it is still produced and it is a nice fit with Volumio.

Please find below the unofficial (a.k.a. community porting) images for the BananaPi M1 device, with updated kernel and Volumio backend. Those images include MyVolumio, so plugins can be installed from the Plugin Page, after logging in with a MyVolumio account (either Free or Premium).

It is based on the work done previously by @ashthespy and @VyacheslavS, a big thanks to both of them!

DISCLAIMER: those images are unofficial, released “as-it-is”. No official support will be provided for this device, but help from other community members is more than welcome.

Updates will be released from time-to-time, without a regular schedule. They can be applied with OTA update or by flashing the new image on the SD-card.

Features:

  • Onboard Analog on 3.5mm jack
  • Plugins from Plugin store
  • Manifest UI
  • OTA update
  • Kiosk Mode (Volumio UI on HDMI display)

just tried it, seems to work fine, thanks

bugs found in the first 5min:

  • device not always found with app
  • favorite save broken
  • playlist save broken
  • when saving radio station, song title is used for favorite
  • android back button goes to app main page instead of previous nav item

Is this all because it’s a unofficial build?
I though Bluesound OS was buggy, but this is useless.
I was thinking of buying a Primo, but not any more.

Please make sure you’re using the latest available version, 3.757.
If you’re running an older one, please perform an OTA update

The bugs you reported might be caused by the missing QA test performed on this platform, that is an unofficial community porting
