Hi there,

I’m thinking about what kind of opportunities there is for a portable media center you can have with you in the car, train or whatever.

I imagine that the media center would create its own WiFi, so that devices would be able to connect to it and access the media.

I know you could do something with a Raspberry Pi, but how could this work in practice? What would be an easy way to access the media from an iPad fx? What software could be used?

As a bonus, it would be pretty cool if the media center could connect to a hotel WiFi and then create a hotspot from that.

Edit: This would be used when on the move. So you would have the media with you on the media center.

    I’m running Navidrome on my Raspberry pi (4). On my phone (Pixel 8) I use Symfonium to connect with Navidrome. When I’m travelling I use Tailscale + Mullvad + Symfonium to play music from my rpi.
