Hi,
Only available on upcoming moOde 4.0 release which is based on Raspbian Stretch. i don't know what needs to be done on the older Raspbian Jessie which is the version of the OS used in moOde 3 series.

"you're using MPD from a proprietary non-free distribution which does not provide the source code. This is illegal!"
It seems that Tim only has to provide the source code of the MDP part...
Hi,
I just don't host a Git repo for moOde sources but rather provide a link to sources tar download if requested. The sources are also available directly on the image. I sent note to MaxK explaining this.

Hi,
The GPL does not specify how the sources have to be provided (Git repo, Sourceforge, etc), or even under what time frame, just that they have to be provided to anyone that wants them.
The last sources tar that was requested by a user was for moOde 3.7.

Ok, I have executed these commands:
Code:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgradeEverything still seems to work.
If you are doing any sort of display screen or you want to trigger a meta data check then the python scratchings below will get the current playing track metadata using Beautiful Soup.
Beautiful soup is installed on Moode 4 image but if not on 3.84 then
sudo apt-get install python-bs4.
This is based on a script I have for UPMPDCLI dynamic metadata feature in the latest code which is why I have left it outputing JSON so output however you want.
Other programming languages are available....
I am not a programmer so script so comes with no warranty , no support and no quality control.
You cannot easily trigger this from Moode as the web front end cannot detect the track change so maybe of limited usage.
Code:
#!/usr/bin/python
import urllib as url
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import json
Jbr2Playing = url.urlopen("https://jbradio2.ca/web/web/playing.php")
Jbradio2Meta = Jbr2Playing.read()
soup = BeautifulSoup(Jbradio2Meta, "html.parser")
# print soup
NowPlayingTitle = soup.find_all('span', {"id": "currently-playing-title"})[0].text.strip()
NowPlayingArtist = soup.find_all('span', {"id": "currently-playing-artist"})[0].text.strip()
NowPlayingAlbum = soup.find_all('span', {"id": "currently-playing-artist"})[1].text.strip()
link = soup.find('img')['src']
ImageUrl = link.replace(' ', "%20")
MetaData = dict(title=NowPlayingTitle, artist=NowPlayingArtist, artUrl=ImageUrl, album=NowPlayingAlbum)
print json.dumps(MetaData)

Hi,
This includes the Beta program. No releases until GPL compliance issue is investigated and resolved.

You might want to put a notice on the moodeaudio website. Thanks for dealing with all the issues.

Can any android users try some networking tests using Melloware’s Zeroconf browser? This will allow you to find mode.local devices in the same way Windows, Mac and iOS devices can.
ZeroConf Browser - Android Apps on Google Play
It works on Android ver.2.0 and up, so most set-tops, mobiles and tablets should manage to run it.
There’s a post and a poll here, to save clogging up Tim’s support thread: Android and Zeroconf/Bonjour

Hi,
I'm trying to use Moode with Berryboot. I've followed the instruction here Adding your own custom operating systems to the menu but cannot boot into Moode. It raises this error: "Failed to start Remount Root and Kernel File Systems".
Does anyone has some instructions on how to prepare the image?
Thank you!

Hi,
Short story I have moved away from volumio mainly for ES9028 support on moode which I like a lot.
Two major downsides since switching, I should mention both were plung and play in volumio:
1. can't copy files over the network to the raspberry attached usb drive.
2. RTL8811 AC usb wifi is not supported, which used to make transferring files reasonably fast also can't/don't really use the built in card from rp3 as the system is in a metal case .
Any soft of help greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Re #1 - what os are you on? In Win7 it should show up in Explorer as \\Moode\usb\mydrive\
Where mydrive is the name of your USB drive
Although I *would* like to know if there's a way to ftp to the drive
Or in WinSCP I can SEE the drives /root/media/mydrive - but can't copy to it.
