Hi Tim,
unfortunately there are many audio files in the other folders (subtitles of videos, videos in my photos folders etc.). Because this hdd is my main hdd I am constantly adding folders with audio files. Is there no way of only using/ showing predefined folders on the hdd?

Hi Tim,
Enlarging the images works okay for me. Strange.
I'm afraid that changing MUSIC to lower-case makes no difference.
Hi,
To troubleshoot, I would remove the mount point, reboot and start from scratch.
Based on \\10.0.0.239\music connect string working from Windows client, enter the same ip address (no slashes), folder name (lower case and no slashes) and same userid and password.
In addition, try adding sec=ntlm to the advanced mount flags.

Tim
No, still can't get it to work. Don't worry about it, I'll stick to USB.
Thanks for your help though.
Has anyone had any issues with '8X TDA1387 Hifi DAC' using the CM6631 USB option? I just got one and tried it last night, but ran into 2 problems. The first was that when I plugged in the USB my Ethernet port would appear to loose power. (I should mention I just got my raspberry pi 2 also). I was able to get it working eventually, but only by plugging in my DAC's USB, then doing a hard power cycle on the raspberry pi. It worked when I would restart but all I hear is loud static. I played around with the settings in the MOODE software and was able to clean it up a lot, but never got a solid signal. I am going to try a powered hub tonight and maybe the i2s port. Any other suggestions?
Hi,
Couple suggestions:
(1) Moode 2.4 does not support hot plug so must plug in USB audio device then power up, then configure. Note that Moode 2.5 (Jan 2016) supports hot plug
(2) Try the USB (UAC2) fix listed on moodeaudio.org (Player Fixes button) for the Cmedia USB issue.

Hi I ran into the same problem with my Emotiva XMC-1 which has the same CM6631 DAC chip. See my post http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/pc-based/271811-moode-audio-player-raspberry-pi-115.html#post4535722.
I tried the USB CM6631 DAC fix which Tim mentions but that didn't solve my problem. I could only use Moode with my Emotiva XMC-1 when I select resampling option 16 bits and 44.1KHz...
I went back to Rune Audio. Although Rune Audio is not that often updated as Moode, I was able to get my Raspberry Pi2 working correctly with my Emotiva. In Rune Audio it automatically recognizes the dac. It reports as XMC-1. All, two channel, audio files ranging from 16 bit 44.1 KHz to 24 bit and 192 KHz are played correctly.
The only drawback which I experience with Rune Audio is when booting. Sometimes I needed to reboot it to start up correctly. I solved this problem to leave the raspberry always on.
I use the Rune audio front-end only for configuration. From controlling music we (my wife and I) use Mupeace as client on our Android phones and tablet. I tried several front-end's but I liked that the most.
Just started using Moode and am trying to set up a static IP with the WLAN connection. It seems Moode does not support static IP over the WLAN connection, is this true?
I'm using a Chinese WM8804 add-on IIS-SPDIF card with the HifiBerry Digi+ driver going to out to a Buffalo 1 DAC. Sounds quite decent and setup was pretty simple apart from the static IP (I have a very small DHCP range on the router and prefer fixed IPs on all fixed location devices), so thanks for overall a great little piece of software!
Unfortunately I am tied down to using software volume control for now, but we'll see about that later.
Edit: Is there a way to prevent loud clicks when changing tracks? I don't know why this is (probably a result of the stream being interrupted) but there is a very unpleasant click when moving track to track. The chain has no attenuation throughout, so it is especially loud. Doesn't happen through other sources on the same set of DAC/Amp/speakers. Maybe a 'keep alive' setting?

Hi Roger,
Thanks for that but the problem is the router expects the assigned IP to be within the DHCP range.
I normally have a DHCP range from xx.xx.xx.105 to xx.xx.xx.110, with all static IPs assigned outside this range in categories - such as infrastructure and security devices up to xx.10, fixed terminals from xx.100 to xx.104 and the address for Rune for example was xx.200. Calms my OCD a bit. This way only truly mobile devices such as phones and tabs get DHCP-assigned IPs and fixed terminals operate in static mode.
I was hoping it would be possible to set the Moode IP to xx.210, but that's not possible within the Moode interface and the router can only assign to xx.110 or I have to expand the DHCP range all the way to xx.210 or more.
It's no biggie, honestly, but helpful nonetheless.

Thank you for this wonderful project. Was a Volumio user, but everything in Moode Audio exudes quality and just makes me feel warm inside. Even my HifiBerry DAC+ configuration worked first time without a hitch.
A question about the upnp renderer, though. Where can we find the upnp music sources on the network? Enabled the upnp renderer but can't for the life of me find my Synology NAS anywhere. Connecting to it using CIFS/SMB works, of course.

Hi Benjamin,
You could try creating a .mpdignore file in the dirs that you don't want indexed by MPD. I've never tried this so don't know if it works.

Hi,
Just to confirm, did you try the following patch from PLAYER FIXES on moodeaudio.org?
(3) Audio glitches with certain USB High Speed (UAC2) audio devices.
Cause: USB driver bug in Linux 3.18 and 4.1 kernels
Fix: Add dwc_otg.fiq_fsm_mask=0x3 to the beginning of line in /boot/cmdline.txt
Regards,
Tim
Raspberrypi / I2S may not be a good choice : most of the I2S DAC for raspberry are in slave mode.
good choice maybe the new hifiberry DAC which has a new DAC in master mode
Hi,
(1) Correct, UI only supports static ip address for eth0.
(2) MPD software volume control algorithm is very high quality using 32 bit float and dither.
(3) The symptoms suggest that audio device (WM8804 add-on IIS-SPDIF card) is not compatible with the HifiBerry Digi+ i2s driver.

Tim
Hi Pedro,
You would need to run a UPnP/DLNA server on your NAS and then use a UPnP Control point application like Linn Kinsky as the UI.

Hi Tim,
Is it possible for you to suggest what other driver I might try, because all others seem to be Analog converters. The only one that is digital is the Hifiberry driver.
Thanks for your help
