Configure piCOREplayer

[audiobomber]

I'm trying to configure piCOREplayer on my Raspberry Pi. It's asking for a Network Disk mount point, /mnt/ 

<Mount Point> the name of the mount point for the drive. Alpha-numeric pathnames required (up to 32 characters).

• Do not use hardware device names like sda1 or mmcblk0.

 

I tried the path to my NAS music folder, Z:\Music and many variations, no luck.  It keeps saying "Please match the requested format". What do I need to enter?

Never mind, configuring is too messy, back to Volumio.

There are reasons for PCP and against Volumio.

I believe your objection to Volumio is described in this sentence: "Within the development of myVolumio the use of plug-ins for native Qobuz and Tidal has become a supplementary paid service." 

 

That is a valid and important point for anyone wanting either service. I only use the Pi for my own music from NAS, and I don't use Volumio as a controller. I use Music Station with WIndows and QMusic with Android. These QNAP programs are able to control my sms-200, RPi and Chromecast Audio streamers.

 

Your description of how to configure piCorePlayer above is the reason I won't be trying pCP again. Frankly the explanation is half Greek to me. Volumio setup is dead simple and it does everything I need. I just wanted to try something different to see if it was better. I wrestled with Moode for most of the day before trying pCp. I need to stay with Volumio.
