Hello,
I am brand new to Moode Audio and very impressed so far with it. I have searched around but haven't found the different type of audio files supported. I have got it to play mp3 files with no problem, but wondering if it will also play flac files?
Thanks for the help,
Gary

The only 'file' type I've found that Moode can't play is .iso (complete CD, DVD or SACD image in a single file). Otherwise, there's no popular audio file type I've thrown at it that it can't play.
Hi Gary,
See below for the list of audio formats supported in the version of MPD that I compile for moOde. Scroll the code section sideways to see all of them 🙂
Code:
pi@rp4:~ $ mpd -V

How do I add .mod,.midi,.sap,.sid,.xm,.ym etc.?
It needs mikmod, gme, modplug, sidplay, fluidsynth to play those. Is there a way to add them?

You would need to compile MPD with the options and dev libs required to enable these audio formats. There may also be other libs and packages needed.
Compiling from source

OK that's not a problem, is the source already in a directory somewhere after the builder has finished or do I need to get that myself?
Would any changes be required to the UI for the new file types?

You will prolly want to download the manual build recipe from moodeaudio.org and then have a look at STEP 6 - Compile and install MPD.
Ah you delete the mosbuild dir when you are finished, ok. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
I was curious if I could see what the file type was before actually playing the file. Or the location of the file.
I have some instances, where tracks are listed with doubles or triples. It would be neat if I could locate those files, and fix them up.
Once the track is playing, I can look into the current song detail, it it'll show the file details, but still no path.
thanks!

If the location of the files is within your network you need to edit the audio file's metadata. Check these links for ideas: - The 5 Best Free MP3 Tag Editors - 10 Best Tools to Tag MP3s and Edit Metadata If you are 'tapping' into an outside stream find a way to save the files (don't ask) and then try to use a metadata editor/tagger.

We had a TODO list item for a "More info" button for tracks that would show the MPD metadata, file extension, etc but there was little demand for it and so it was never implemented.
The Audio info screen shows the full path to the currently playing file including the file extension.
