Moode Audio Player for Raspberry Pi

Change moode realease in .properties file to beta9.
beta8 is not yet available.

you can look at log file in the directory but i guess you will see an error 404 😉

That's what I'm trying to do too. But before downloading the beta9 he aunt to download and decomprés raspbian. this is where there is an error:

Code:
volumio@volumio:~/moOde/usb$ sudo ./install_moOde.sh 2>&1 | sudo tee prep_moOde_log.txt

Hi Tim et al,
Because I don't want to spend hours building, I have (temporarily?) switched to volumio.
The current version of volumio has a great feature, where you can select and control all devices from the same page.
Is that feature in 4.0 as well, or will it be added soon?
I don't see this feature listed for moode 4.0, but on your website it says 'highlights', so you could have added it anyway...

Hi,

I don't understand what u mean by "...control all devices from the same page"

Tim, another tweak to the new local display would be to add a turn off display option on the screen where you can choose to reboot or turn off the display. That way a person could leave their display on all the time but manually turn it off if required.

I think this is more a feature for a touchscreen where the display would come back on again if touched.

Hi,

Are u referring to a screen blank timeout or some sort of button "Turn off display"?

If its a button, do you know what cmd turns off display?

-Tim
 
I did all steps of recipe 1.9 until step 8 included without errors.
Now at every reboot I loose ssh access.
The files /etc/init.d/S01ssh is there, but apparently the sshd does not start automatically.
The only way I found is to "recreate" the ssh empty file under boot in the SD, but it is annoying. Any suggestion on how to debug?
Thanks

Hi Tim, sometimes typing one finger on an iphone means I find it hard to be coherent.

What I had in mind is an option to force the screen off. This could be envoked if the screen is set to not turn off, or even if it was on a timeout but you wanted the screen to go off straight away.

I think a good place to have it would be on the Restart menu so it is called by going:

Beta -> Restart -> Display Off

The menu would only be relevant if the local display option was turned on in the settings.

I can't check the display off command at the moment but I think it is:

xset dpms force off

To get the screen to turn back on (assuming it is a touchscreen) you can just touch the display.

Hi,

Great idea, I can test w/HDMI display and Kbd today 🙂

Hi,

Is there any reason not to install upmpdcli using apt after having set up the repositories and then just finishing up with the last five lines of paragraph 4.?

Thanks

@hui13

Don't see anything in the Raspbian repo. Are you referring to using the PPA from the upmpdcli developer Jean-Francois Dockes? It never occurred to me that he builds for arm until I looked at his launchpad site.

You need to create a sources file refering to the stretch repositories on JF's website. You need to install his public keys.

The instructions are on his website, I also published some instructions a while back but all references to wheezy need to be changed to stretch.

Is this what you mean by PPA, bit Linux light in knowledge

Hi,

The playback tab shows buttons for all volumio instances on your network.
So, if you have player1 and player2, you could go to Nymeria and push the player2 button. Then you can control player2 (i think all tabs then use player2 info.)

Hi,

Pretty easy to implement using avahi (mDNS) but whats the usage scenario for this feature?

Typically multiple players would be open in Browser tabs, or is it just more convenient to be able to switch to different player from within the player itself?

Will dig up the information when I am no longer Tapatalk bound.

No need to do that on my account. I'm über-familiar with the use of PPA (Personal Package Archive) mechanics. I just wanted to confirm the repo.

PS - Having to look at launchpad.net got me to thinking: could we somehow put it to use to build and publish .deb files for moOde? Hmmm.

Hi, Tim.

That was my first thought too, but on second thought, if one is using a touchscreen then clicking a choice rather than typing a URL is the stronger option.
