Summary

Now that we've completed the fourth chapter, let's review some of the main tasks you learned to do:

  • You configured the Raspberry Pi to support the internal audio output device and add-on USB audio adapters
  • You installed and configured USB sound devices under ALSA
  • You installed and configured VLC to play Internet-based "radio" streams
  • You created a Python text interface to automate VLC
  • You created and modified a fully-featured TKinter interface to implement a stereo Internet radio with a clock
  • You acquired audio from a microphone connected to the USB audio adapter

In the next chapter, you will start to exercise some of the Raspberry Pi input and output ports to drive LEDs and displays and sense physical switches.
