Moode Audio Player for Raspberry Pi

Tim,

Any chance, that the search option in the library would also allow to search by the song title and not only the album?

And, btw, when the search field is open, the items list (artist, album or song) is partially covered at the bottom (like previously without the search opened).

Thanks Tim for all your hard work.

2.5 installed and works fine on my Pi Zero.

There are a few minor bugs.

Misrendering in the playback screen in Firefox. A page refresh fixes it.

Changing the theme colour had no effect until I restarted my browser (Firefox for Android).

Radio Caroline 259 doesn't play. The .pls file probably needs updating.

These are minor issues, though.

What's planned for the next release?

Hi Phil,

Firefox has been problematic... Thanks for the Radio Caroline update. It will be in 2.6 :)

Some items planned for 2.6 are:

(1) Access Point (AP) mode
(2) Airplay metadata and cover art on UI
(3) Custom Rotary Encoder driver for MoodeCase

Hi, Tim

I have two errors

1 - The file /etc/network/interfaces after settings have the following lines:

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wireless-power off
wpa-ssid "xxx"
wpa-psk "xxx"

allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp


After I editing the file, it has the following lines:

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wireless-power off
wpa-ssid "xxx"
wpa-psk "xxx"

allow-hotplug eth0
#iface eth0 inet dhcp
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.67
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.1.10


Network settings menu takes the form, as shown in the screenshot.

If you then try to change something through the menu, the file becomes the initial view,
that is, the Wi-Fi settings can be changed, but you cannot change the LAN settings.
DHCP for LAN is not disabled.

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wireless-power off
wpa-ssid "xxx"
wpa-psk "xxx"

allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp


2 - After I change some settings, Customize menu disappears. (My browsers Opera 12.18 and IE 11.)

The problem with the Customize menu appeared in version 2.5, the problem with configuring LAN was in TR3.

Hi Serg,

I'll check on the issue with Customize and IE11.

The network code is mostly original and it does not support static address assignment for WLAN. Also there are a few bugs in it for example if the password has an embedded single quote it is not stored in the database correctly. Finally, if u edit the interfaces files manually it will be overridden by changes made in the UI.

For the time being, if u need static address for WLAN, edit the file but don't use the UI to make any changes except RESET.

Tim
 
Hi Tim, installed 2.5 and have configured and rebooted several times.

Two problems..... resume playback not working.
Previously if moode was powered off playing a radio stream the stream was restarted on boot. This is not happening now. Yes the setting is in place.

Previously on Ubuntu I could transfer files using Places>Network>Moode then the appropriate folder.
Now Moode does not appear at all in the Network.
The web interface is working and I can ssh in however.

Edit, found moode using smb://moode.local don't know if the gui change is ubuntu's update or moode but that is now working.
Just the resume playback to go.

Hi Bob,

I'll check on #1 in a bit. For #2 can u manually mount one of the Moode samba shares from Ubuntu?

Hi Bob,

Just tested Resume playback setting on 3 systems, WiFi and LAN, Radio and File, setting on/off and did not encounter any issues. Note that the song or radio station does not have to be playing when the reboot occurs. If its stopped or paused, it will begin playback after reboot finishes.

sampling issue

Hi Tim,
I'running Moode Audio Player release 2.5 on a Rpi 2 with wifi dongle and usb DAC.
The usb DAC is an SMSL M8 with XMOS usb interface volume must be to 100% for best performance (on windows).

By default and no oversampling the sound is crappy.
If I setup any of the 32bit re sampling the dac is working correctly but 16 and 24 bits produce nothing good.

I have some low res / high res file, doe it exists a setup to ensure 32bit but without forcing oversampling ?
 
Hi Tim,

Thank you for Moode player. The new release is working here, but I am missing something in the actions-menu in the library now. The 'add all' is not there anymore, to choose the entire album. Is there a work around?

Regards,
Kobie

Hi Kobie,

Click on Album art in lower right of Library panel and menu will appear. The Add, Play and Clear/Play selections apply to whole Genre, Artist, Album or even the entire collection. The number of tracks will be highlighted.

Regards,
Tim

Hi,

Try the USB (UAC2) audio fix listed under PLAYER FIXES at moodeaudio.org. Its a workaround for bugs in Linux USB driver that may work for u.
