I've just ordered a pifi/hifi digi+ from DX for a pi b+. I'm wanting to use volumio on it. Do I just use the hifiberry digi+ i2s configuration in the settings to get it to work or do I need to do some programming etc.

Hiya,
Is the PiFi working outside of Kodi?
I've put a recent thread up (https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=63&t=166216), as I'm trying to do the same thing, but cannot seem to get any output via phono or spdif.
Cheers,
Dave.

For the sound part, there is also an installer now from HifiBerry: it creates a SD card and does the mods for you. See https://www.hifiberry.com/guides/hifiberry-installer/
For the IR part, this worked for me:
Connect with SSH (root / openelec)
2. Blacklist current lirc_rpi (source http://openelec.tv/forum/103-infared-remotes/71623-blacklist-ir-modules-and-change-rc-keymaps)
echo "lirc_rpi" >> /storage/.config/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
3. Edit config.txt
# Make it editable (source http://wiki.openelec.tv/index.php/Config.txt)
mount -o remount,rw /flash
nano /flash/config.txt
# Add this specific info for HiFi Berry (source http://www.nielsmayer.com/xwiki/bin/view/Raspberry+Pi/Kodi+Audio+Heaven+With+PiFi+Digi+SPDIF+HAT+and+External+DAC)
dtoverlay=lirc-rpi,gpio_in_pin=26
Now reboot, should be working now!
Not sure about this one, may have done this at the start:
Activate lirc_rpi on start (source http://openelec.tv/forum/124-raspberry-pi/51887-raspberry-pi-gpio-ir-receiver-with-openelec-compilation-patches-and-snapshot#51887)
echo "modprobe lirc_rpi" > .config/autostart.sh
chmod +x .config/autostart.sh "
