Moode Audio Player for Raspberry Pi

Michelag · 2024-07-26 8:51 pm

Works now,
Changed config.txt modding/adding these lines

hdmi_group=2
hdmi_mode=87
hdmi_cvt=1024 600 60 6 0 0 0

disable_overscan=1

I don't know why, found that on another forum.
7" led screen.

I do a clean install of moode from raspberry pi imager. I follow the directions of setup using a desired name and password. Then when it starts loading on raspberry pi it stucks on raspberrypi login and do nothing. Am i missing something? Its not the first time that using it.

I faced the same problem on a pi5. I found that if I leave the pi5 without power for 24 hours then it works.
Excuse my English.

This would indicate that you expect MoOde to appear on your screen attached to the Pi on first boot ? That won't work and is the classic symptom you report.
MoOde is a headless player. You need to connect to it via another browser instance...such as from a PC or phone.
Once connected you can set the attached screen to show the MoOde GUI for subsequent boots.
Look in the system tab for options for attached screens.
Go back and re-read the set-up guide.

Hi,

moOde 9.0.6 is available in the Media Player OS section of the Raspberry Pi Imager or as a direct download at https://moodeaudio.org. Visit the Forum for more information https://moodeaudio.org/forum/showthread.php?tid=6783&pid=56618#pid56618

I encountered an issue with my Moode player on version 9.0.6, where it suddenly stopped working. The problem seems related to the code, causing the player to freeze when I open the web console, with the browser repeatedly sending requests and the code continuously throwing errors. I tried downgrading to version 9.0.5, but the issue still persists. What could be causing this, and how can I resolve it?

The browser keeps sending requests to http://192.168.0.114/engine-mpd.php?state=undefined&_=1723361033192.
Uncaught exception happened at:

Code:

playerlib.js:1057 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'indexOf')

JavaScript:

            // Cover backdrop or bgimage
            if (SESSION.json['cover_backdrop'] == 'Yes') {
                var backDropHTML = MPD.json['coverurl'].indexOf(DEFAULT_ALBUM_COVER) === -1 ? '<img class="ss-backdrop" ' + 'src="' + MPD.json['coverurl'] + '">' : '';
                $('#cover-backdrop').html(backDropHTML);
                $('#cover-backdrop').css('filter', 'blur(' + SESSION.json['cover_blur'] + ')');
                $('#cover-backdrop').css('transform', 'scale(' + SESSION.json['cover_scale'] + ')');
            } else if (SESSION.json['bgimage'] != '') {
                $('#cover-backdrop').html('<img class="ss-backdrop" ' + 'src="' + SESSION.json['bgimage'] + '">');
                $('#cover-backdrop').css('filter', 'blur(0px)');
                $('#cover-backdrop').css('transform', 'scale(1.0)');
            }

When you say "suddenly stoped working" do you mean that it was working ok up until some point and then this error started occurring?

jarnoshen · 2024-08-11 2:55 pm

Yes, it is working fine and I'm listening to tracks, until I was switching manually to another track. Then it get stuck. I rebooted the Rpi immediately.
Then, I can open the web page via browser, but the playlist is gone, and there is no album cover. I tried to Update Library, but no response. With the browser develop tool, I noticed, there is very quick repeated request between browser and Rpi. So I think that's why the web does not respond.
The CPU is also high in the Rpi in this case.

TimCurtis · 2024-08-11 4:35 pm

Very odd. Maybe something has crashed for some reason.

Try checking these two daemons

PHP:

pgrep mpd
pgrep worker.php

and also the moode log

PHP:

moodeutl -l

jarnoshen · 2024-08-12 1:16 pm

Thanks for your kind instruction, Tim.

First, it seems the daemons are not running. Are they normally running?

Bash:

pi@raspberrypi ~> pgrep mpd
pi@raspberrypi ~ [1]> pgrep worker.php
pi@raspberrypi ~ [1]>

Then this is the moode log.

Bash:

pi@raspberrypi ~ [1]> moodeutl -l

There is nothing special in mpd log, it lists the last several songs I'm playing on Aug-10.

I checked the mpd.service, it's failed indeed. And I cannot manually restart it also.

It looks like the mpd.conf file is broken.

Post the contents of the file and I'll have a look.

Code:

cat /etc/mpd.conf

I think the issue is in audio_output type "alsa", mixer_type "". If I change the mixer_type to "software" then I can start the mpd.service, but when I reboot, the mpd file will be overwritten again.

Dump the following session variable and corresponding SQL value

Code:

sudo moodeutl -d -gv mpdmixer
moodeutl -q "select value from cfg_mpd where param='mixer_type'"

If they are both blank then update the SQL table, delete mpd.conf and reboot. The mpd.conf file will be regenerated during startup.

Code:

moodeutl -q "update cfg_mpd set value='software' where param='mixer_type'"
sudo rm /etc/mpd.conf
sudo reboot

If after rebooting the SQL param 'mixer_type' is set to "" again then it's not obvious to me what set of conditions could cause that. Your best bet at that point would be to re-image with a fresh 9.0.6 release.

jarnoshen · 2024-08-12 3:39 pm

Thanks providing the SQL. I'm checking the session env too, it's indeed empty

Bash:

pi@raspberrypi ~> sudo moodeutl -d -gv mpdmixer

pi@raspberrypi ~> moodeutl -q "select value from cfg_mpd where param='mixer_type'"

pi@raspberrypi ~>

According to your method, I reset the value, remove mpd.conf and reboot, now it works ! 👍👍

Hello, I am using Moode on a Raspberry Pi 4 with the official 7" screen.

I am trying to change various audio settings using the web interface such as setting the audio output from stereo to mono from the default stereo and also trying to change the equalizer settings. However, every time I try to change a setting and save it, the setting reverts back to the default settings.

I have seen the message that says: "MPD settings cannot be saved when Audio output in Bluetooth Control is set to "Bluetooth speaker" or when Multiroom Sender or Receiver are On."

However, I think I have turned Bluetooth off and unchecked all of the Multiroom sender and receiver options.

Is there anything else that I should do to be able to make these changes?

Hi there, i want to connect a speaker in raspi jack port but no audio neither a choice. Do I need to do something else?

Reboot and then post the contents of the startup log.

The log can be viewed via the SSH command moodeutl -l or downloaded via the Logs section in System Config, or via Menu, System info from any of the Config screens. The startup log will be at the end of System info output.
