Code:- NEW: Option to wake the display when audio starts playing
Tim - how has this been implemented? Is it a watch script for the mpd status changing or something being added when play is clicked etc?
If it's a watch script I could move my amp control script from 'external' and bolt it on to the internal moode one. Rather than running two.
Tristan
Answering my own question I see it's a watch script monitoring the hw_params file. So this should work with AirPlay.
How about adding a GPIO input field and toggling the GPIO value along in a similar manner to the display? Call it "Amp control" or "Relay Control" with its own selector, just like the wake display option?
Although I see an issue with this - the "sleep 6" means your amp would switch off after ~6 seconds on hitting pause - which wouldn't be ideal and changing 6 to 120 would impact on the rest of moode. Hmm. Hopefully two processes reading the hw_params file won't impact anything.

It's implemented in watchdog.sh within its 6 second polling loop. It's checking ALSA hw_params.

RE: Upcoming moOde 6.4.0 update - Zigzag - 11-17-2019
Really looking forward to this release. I was wondering if there was any chance of it also including the latest version of Upmpdcli, which I think is 1.4.5
RE: Upcoming moOde 6.4.0 update - Tim Curtis - 11-17-2019
What are its advantages over the version () that currently ships with moOde?
pi@rp2:~ $ upmpdcli -v
Upmpdcli 1.2.16 libupnpp 0.16.0

Many thanks for getting back to me Tim. A number of refinements have been to Upmpdcli since 1.2.16 came out, including a fix to make it possible to remove tracks from playlists – something I particularly value.
A summary of all the key changes that have made to Upmpdcli and libupnpp, which is now apparently @ version 0.17.0, is available here: https://www.lesbonscomptes.com/upmpdcli/releases.html
RE: Upcoming moOde 6.4.0 update - TheOldPresbyope - 11-18-2019
I looked over the release notes yesterday.
Perhaps the best news from a software maintainer's standpoint is the move to Python 3 in upmpdcli 1.3.
It's not clear whether it and the upgraded libupnp 0.17 required for upmpdcli 1.4 are simply a drop-in replacement although I confess haven't tried. One can hope.
From a music standpoint, Spotify Premium is accommodated with a new upmpcli music server and improvements apparently have been made in other servers like the one for Qobuz. Apparently some OpenHome features have been added/cleared up and apparently some more mobile clients now work (or work better).
I subscribe to Tidal and Spotify and can test newer upmpdcli releases against them. Mañana
Regards,
Kent
