Video Topic
This video is about building a custom music player using a Raspberry Pi and mentions Raspberry Pi 5, MOOD OS, Raspberry Pi Digi Amp, USB knob, and STL file for 3D printing.
Caption
Check the Patreon for links. YT for widescreen. I've been trying to build a little player for a long time, and I kept putting it off until I found a fantastic STL @diyprojects3d , links in the Patreon. With a basic screen, Raspberry Pi, a little audio player, and not that much work, we can install a #moode , which is a music server, and build our own little digital HIFI.

Over the years, I've collected a lot of music, and I've gone from hard drive to hard drive, but kinda don't really have anything to play it with and iPods and, ah, it doesn't exist.
So, of course, like everyone else, I moved over to Spotify.
But I don't like Spotify, which means I've been trying to build a player, uh, that I can manage all of my music but still have an interface, and that's what I'm gonna do.
Uh, I'll show you the hardware I'm gonna use, the- where to get the STL file.
I will have a list of everything in my Patreon.
And then I'm going to go and install MOOD.
Now, MOOD is gonna be our- the operating system I use.
For this, I'm using Raspberry Pi 5, very cheap.
I got, a while ago, a Raspberry Pi Digi Amp.
This is a HAT, an audio HAT that sits directly on top of the Raspberry Pi.
It's the DAC, so it's the digital audio converter, but it's also the amplifier as well.
I have a five-inch touchscreen, a very fancy little box that I've 3D printed, a, uh, USB knob that will light up, and some other bits and bobs.
There is a guide with the- if you do this and you get the STL, there's a guide, um, it's worth paying for.
He gives you a full list.
I'm going a lot more jank 'cause that's how I roll.
I'm just using USB stuff and off-the-shelf.
I'm trying to just make it work without too much effort.
So in this, I'm just gonna do a, uh, a build.
Um, I'm gonna go into the workshop and, uh, prepare for a different quality video and audio.
In this, I'm just doing an- a voiceover because all of the audio and everything didn't really work well.
So, let me just talk you through.
First off, uh, why?
Why would you do this?
Because I can.
Um, it's just something I've been interested in doing.
I wanna get off Spotify, and it's easy enough to get the parts.
So I'm using a Raspberry Pi 5.
You don't need a 5.
You could use a 2 or a 3, anything that's going to allow you to have an audio, DAK, and some sort of amplifier on it will run MOOD.
MOOD will run on basically anything.
As you can see, I'm wiring stuff up.
I- I'm a terrible solderer, and, um, this all went to poop anyway, and I ended up just sort of hardwiring stuff in direct, and it was fine.
It just goes to show, you don't necessarily need to have all of the fancy skills.
You can just hack your way through it.
So here I am, so just trying to solder cables and wires.
You could buy one of these, I think.
You know, these types of devices come from Amazon, maybe a few hundred dollars, um, or a cheap one out of China.
But I liked the box, the STL print.
Uh, the top part, I had a lot of problems printing, but, uh, eventually, I- I- I got there.
And as I said before, it- the- there is a, uh, proper step-by-step guide if you buy this STL, uh, that will walk you through it, and it's fine, um, but I just wanted to do- use USB stuff.
Here we go.
Here we go.
We have our Raspberry Pi with the audio player.
Put our, uh, speakers in.
We have our internet.
Everything's plugged in.
So this is all just off-the-shelf.
The only thing custom, apart from having to solder some stuff, was the 3D print of the case.
And it was finding this 3D print of the case which is what inspired me to finally get this done.
So now that the box is built, the- the SD card, if you download the Raspberry Pi imager, when it asks you what operating system you want, in the Raspberry Pi imager, it already has in- in the media player OS MOOD Audio.
Select that and set it up.
Very straightforward, the same.
Make sure that's in the SD card before you put it into the box, just to be aware.
When you turn it on, it's gonna boot a few times, and then on the screen, you will know it's done when it says- uh, you'll see the IP address and a login.
It won't show anything but that, but that's fine 'cause all you need to do is go to a web browser and go to that IP address, and you will get something like this.
First step, so I've- I had to troubleshoot a few things, that's why it's sort of set up now, but the first thing is you want to go and connect if you've got a, uh, remote NAS, which is where all my music is stored.
So if you click the Create button, select the path, so the IP address, forward slash, in my case, it was media/music, then make sure that the NAS has a user and a password, and connect.
And that's all you need to do.
Then it will just start to connect.
If you added a drive, uh, if you- like a, uh, NVMe or a- you've got something external, you would select it here if you didn't have a remote device.
Everything else is fine to leave.
In the audio, you see I have the output device, it's found, the Digi Amp+.
Now, I did find that Digi Amp+ still exists.
I thought they had discontinued.
It's just a newer model that's slightly different.
I think that's fine.
You may use something else.
Uh, you would select what the output device from the audio is here.
For volume type, use software.
That worked for me.
And then, uh, everything else is pretty much okay.
You can start to play around with, like, h-...
all of the DSP and the audio processing.
I didn't.
I don't know enough anymore about any of this sort of stuff, so I just kinda left it.
Now, in the, um, Network, I have this connected.
I was gonna be using the Ethernet, but cable (laughs) breaks, so I'm just using the Wi-Fi.
So you can set up your Wi-Fi network here.
In System, uh, turn on your notifications so you can get notified.
You can set up some basic general information.
I didn't really touch anything in the Systems or File Sharing.
I did turn off the Logging, purely because it does a lot of logging, and while it does, um, flush them once a day, it can kinda get a little bogged down.
So you can do that if you like, but I just didn't.
In the Renderers, I didn't touch any of this, but there are options to, like, s- connect Spotify and stuff like that, which I'm not sure of.
In the Peripherals, you wanna make sure that Web UI is turned on, that you set a URL.
So I've set this up on my home network as this URL, but you can use the IP address if you want.
I've turned on Cover View, which means when I play on the device, it shows the cover of the art, of the audio.
I didn't touch any of the other elements.
All of the, the HDMI display, everything was auto-found.
I have the audio, uh, dial, as you saw.
That's a USB.
You need to make sure you turn on Trigger Happy.
This means that the audio, the USB audio device will be found.
And back in Library, if, once you've set it, it doesn't, uh, have a database set, just click Regenerate, and it's gonna go and populate all of your audio library.
Which means once that's done, you can go into the Home, and you'll find all of your different options.
So up in this top right corner, I've got Library, all of the folders that have connected, any tags you create or that have been created, all of the albums, and yes, I have a few, and I've been connecting for a long time.
Then you can make playlists.
I've been experimenting with using the SSH to automatically play li- to make playlists.
I'm going to have a pl- a bit of a play around at that.
But I'm just gonna delete.
So I'm just gonna go in, and we'll, we'll say, uh, I'm gonna make a playlist called AC/DC.
Add, Add.
Then if I go into my Playlists, we now have an AC/DC playlist.
Play.
And that's now playing.
So it's a little...
Look, it's not perfect, but you know what?
Good enough for me.
And this is the dashboard controlled on your computer.
It can also control on the phone.
And this is what we end up with.
It is f- it is fine.
I've just repurposed some old speakers I had, and yeah.
We have a nice little screen, control.
I think that's absolutely perfect.
So, of course, like everyone else, I moved over to Spotify.
But I don't like Spotify, which means I've been trying to build a player, uh, that I can manage all of my music but still have an interface, and that's what I'm gonna do.

Actionable Tips (1/10)
hook clarityScore: 1/5
Reasoning
The opening does not quickly tell viewers why to stay. In the first 5 seconds, the script says, "Over the years, I've collected a lot of music..." which is slow scene-setting rather than a sharp promise. The retention data confirms the hook underperformed: retention falls from 100% at 0s to 90% at 1s, 69% at 2s, and 58% at 3s, then to 48% at 4s. Losing over half the audience by 4 seconds strongly suggests the hook was unclear and too indirect.
How to Improve
Open with the end result and the tension immediately. For example: "I got sick of Spotify, so I built a Raspberry Pi music player for my own library—and I'll show you the exact parts and setup." Put the audience, problem, and payoff in the first sentence.
Relevant Extract
"Over the years, I've collected a lot of music, and I've gone from hard drive to hard drive..."
audience matchScore: 2/5
Reasoning
The script eventually signals who this is for—people with large personal music libraries who want an alternative to Spotify—but that signal arrives late. In the first 15 seconds, the audience is still somewhat broad and unclear. Retention dropping from 100% to 43% by 5s and 30% by 14s suggests many viewers did not quickly realize this was specifically for DIY audio / Raspberry Pi / self-hosted music enthusiasts. Engagement is decent among those who stayed (121 likes and 29 comments on 2,734 views), which suggests the right niche did connect, but too late.
How to Improve
Name the viewer earlier and more explicitly. Try: "If you've got a big local music library and want a DIY Spotify alternative, here's how I built one with a Raspberry Pi." This filters in the right viewers immediately.
Relevant Extract
"So, of course, like everyone else, I moved over to Spotify. But I don't like Spotify..."
problem specificityScore: 3/5
Reasoning
The problem is real and somewhat concrete: the creator has a lot of music, dislikes Spotify, and wants a dedicated player. That is more specific than generic tech talk. However, the pain is still framed loosely and conversationally instead of as one sharply stated operational problem. The retention collapse by 2-4 seconds (69% at 2s, 58% at 3s, 48% at 4s) suggests the problem was not expressed crisply enough to feel instantly compelling.
How to Improve
State the exact problem in one line: "I have terabytes of music on drives, but no good modern player for it, and I don't want to rely on Spotify." One concrete pain point lands faster than a nostalgic lead-in.
Relevant Extract
"kinda don't really have anything to play it with and iPods and, ah, it doesn't exist."
payoff clarityScore: 2/5
Reasoning
There is a payoff, but it is muddled and spread across multiple lines: hardware, STL file, Patreon list, MOOD install, and a build process. Viewers are asked to infer what they will actually leave with. The first-15-second retention line shows this clearly: after 10s retention is only 33%, and by 14s it is 30%. That means most people left before the value proposition became clean. The low share count (7 shares) also suggests the payoff did not feel instantly useful or easily transmissible.
How to Improve
Compress the payoff into one sentence: "In this video I'll show you the exact parts, software, and setup to build a Raspberry Pi music player for your own library." Keep Patreon and side mentions out of the opening.
Relevant Extract
"I'll show you the hardware I'm gonna use, the- where to get the STL file... And then I'm going to go and install MOOD."
value densityScore: 3/5
Reasoning
Once the build starts, the script contains lots of practical detail: Raspberry Pi 5, Digi Amp HAT, touchscreen, MOOD setup, NAS connection, Trigger Happy, and playlist creation. That supports a mid-level to good value density. But the video is very long at 524.493 seconds, and much of the narration includes filler, repeated phrasing, and side comments. The retention trend in the opening is severe, and the modest total views suggest the content did not sustain broad interest efficiently. The engagement that did happen (121 likes, 29 comments) implies useful value exists, but it is buried in a lot of verbal padding.
How to Improve
Cut filler and reduce setup commentary. Group content into fast chapters: problem, parts, assembly, software setup, final demo. Remove repeated caveats and conversational loops so each 5-10 second segment delivers a distinct useful takeaway.
Relevant Extract
"I'm going a lot more jank 'cause that's how I roll... I'm trying to just make it work without too much effort."
specificityScore: 4/5
Reasoning
This script is rich in concrete nouns and implementation detail: Raspberry Pi 5, Digi Amp, DAC, five-inch touchscreen, USB knob, STL, MOOD Audio, NAS, IP address, Wi-Fi, Trigger Happy, playlists, SSH. That gives the video strong operational specificity. This likely helped generate 29 comments from a relatively small 2,734 views, suggesting technically interested viewers had things to discuss. The main reason this is not a 5 is that some details are fragmented, repeated, or not always framed in the most digestible order.
How to Improve
Keep the specificity but organize it into clean buckets: parts list, wiring, OS install, network config, controls. On-screen labels or captions for each named component would make the specificity easier to absorb in real time.
Relevant Extract
"For this, I'm using Raspberry Pi 5... a Raspberry Pi Digi Amp... a five-inch touchscreen... install MOOD."
credibilityScore: 4/5
Reasoning
The creator sounds like someone who actually built the thing. The script includes firsthand troubleshooting, component choices, trade-offs, and setup decisions. Lines about failed soldering, using software volume, turning off logging, and connecting a NAS build trust. The like rate is solid for the view count, and 29 comments suggest viewers saw enough expertise to engage. This is not a 5 only because some explanations are imprecise or hesitant, which can reduce perceived mastery even when the experience is real.
How to Improve
Keep the firsthand process but tighten the explanations. Add quick proof points like cost, time to build, what failed, and what finally worked. That would make the expertise feel even more authoritative without losing authenticity.
Relevant Extract
"I did find that Digi Amp+ still exists... For volume type, use software. That worked for me."
authenticityScore: 5/5
Reasoning
The script feels highly human and honest. The creator admits mistakes, says the audio didn't work, calls the build jank, and openly says "Because I can." That kind of imperfection reads as real rather than synthetic. The comments-to-view ratio also suggests the audience likely connected with the personality and honesty. Even though retention was weak early, the people who stayed appear to have responded to the genuine voice.
How to Improve
Preserve the honest tone, but move the strongest authentic line earlier. For example: "I'm not paying for Spotify forever when I already own the music, so I built my own player." That keeps the humanity while sharpening the hook.
Relevant Extract
"I'm going a lot more jank 'cause that's how I roll."
cognitive loadScore: 2/5
Reasoning
Many spoken lines are long, hesitant, and packed with interruptions: "uh," "um," restarts, side notes, and unfinished thoughts. That raises the effort required to follow the content in real time. The early retention data strongly supports this: 100% to 69% by 2s and 58% by 3s is consistent with viewers struggling to parse the opening quickly enough. The technical sections also stack multiple concepts before resolving the sentence, which increases load further.
How to Improve
Rewrite spoken lines into short units with one idea each. Example: "I hate Spotify. I own the music already. So I built a Raspberry Pi player. Here are the parts." In the tutorial section, separate actions into step-by-step commands instead of nested explanation.
Relevant Extract
"Over the years, I've collected a lot of music, and I've gone from hard drive to hard drive, but kinda don't really have anything to play it with..."
progressionScore: 2/5
Reasoning
The video does move from motivation to parts to build to software to demo, but the path is loose and repetitive. It revisits why, STL notes, jank disclaimers, troubleshooting, and setup details in a way that blurs momentum. The very long runtime of 524.493 seconds makes progression especially important, yet the script does not create frequent payoff beats. The steep early retention decline and low shares indicate that the narrative arc did not feel efficiently paced or structured for TikTok.
How to Improve
Use a clearer sequence: 1) what I'm building, 2) parts, 3) assembly, 4) MOOD setup, 5) final result, 6) what I'd do differently. Add explicit transitions every 15-30 seconds so the viewer feels forward motion.
Relevant Extract
"First off, uh, why? Why would you do this? Because I can."

TheChriswith Jellyfin you can also manage your music 👌 (beside movies and series)
matiazI saw that project here in TikTok and I was wondering if it was really worth buying
Creator
Mar 29, 2026if you want a dedicated music device, have time, and a lot of music and its maybe on a shared folder then yes, worth a crack!
matiazNice! Will give it a try, thanks dude

Mar 29, 2026I'll look into that!
WorthSalmonWatching your videos make me want to do it as well. So recently, I created my own homelab (CasaOS on a optiplex). I've been using Navidrome for my music, and I've had no problems with it. Having a blast with IoT projects. Thanks

Mar 29, 2026Plexamp instead of Moode? I stopped paying for plex and moved to jellyfin so I'm not using it anymore (its better in many ways to JF) but I was having issues.

2LigmaNutsI actually just bought the lifetime pass. as I have a lot of friends and family already setup. so the lifetime pass was a no-brainer for me. But hey, what ever works for you

Mar 29, 2026It's the best way to go, I agree. if I had the pass 100% I'd be a Plex user again.

2LigmaNutsI feel ya, I've used Plex for years for free. So in my mind, giving them 115$ for the while it's going to last was a no brainer. we'll see how long it lasts but every technology only lasts a while.
