Alphasound 20260720
Automated build from main branch.
Base OS: Alpine Linux 3.21 (aarch64, diskless)
Shairport-sync: from Alpine community repo
Bluetooth A2DP: auto-pairing for non-Apple devices
Filesystem: Runs entirely from RAM — SD card is read-only by design
Two variants published:
alphasound-home.img.xz— full feature set (display support, CEC, Roon, web UI brightness control). Use on a home/desk install.alphasound-car.img.xz— stripped for boot speed; no Python/display/CEC/Roon. Use for behind-dash or trunk-mount installs where cold-start latency matters.
