"Autoplay after start" broken in 7.6.1 - Busybox - 01-14-2022

I don't see a 7.6.1 support thread yet, so I'm posting this here. Feel free to move it if a 7.6.1 support thread is started.

"Autoplay after start" worked fine in 7.6.0; moode would begin playing the same radio station that was active when powered down. In 7.6.1, moode starts up playing an apparently random station in my playlist, not the station that was active before the last power down or restart.

Works fine on my end after power off/on or reboot.

Post Moode startup log and I'll have a look.

Code:
moodeutl -l


RE: "Autoplay after start" broken in 7.6.1 - Busybox - 01-15-2022

Hmm, it also works fine on two other moode systems I have. I've pasted the log from the problematic system below (I'm not sure why I can't attach a text file.) Anyway unless you have some other suggestions, I'm thinking I should just reinstall 7.6.1 from scratch and see if that fixes things.

Maybe the underpowered 1B is contributing to the issue.

It's true it's a dinosaur, but it's worked fine up until now. My other two moode systems that work are newer: not sure what versions offhand, but they at least have 40-pin IO connectors. This one has the old 26-pin connector, but the 26-pin audio card I have for it seems to work fine so I'd like to keep it running as long as possible. During normal operations its load factor ranges from 0.20 to 0.30, which I don't think is too bad. But it's slow to boot, taking about 1:20. I wonder if there might be some sort of race condition in the startup sequence that doesn't show up on faster CPUs since they run through their tasks quicker.

Anyway when I restart moode from a browser, sometimes I see a dialog that says:

MPD Error
Unexpected end of JSON input

This line in the log:

20220115 095520 worker: Auto-playing id (17)

sometimes comes up with the proper id and things work, but usually it's a random value, and occasionally it's null like this:

20220115 131825 worker: Auto-playing id ()

in the null case, moode's webpage usually shows the proper id, but auto-play doesn't start. It's as if autoplay wasn't selected.

Hope this helps,

I'd try a fresh image on a new SDCard.

RE: "Autoplay after start" broken in 7.6.1 - Busybox - 01-18-2022

After backing up moode, I flashed a new SD card with the 7.6.1 image, then did a restore. Everything seemed to restore correctly except all the radio stations in my playlist are missing: those I added from the moode collection, and those I added myself. Perhaps my station data were corrupted to begin with, which could cause all of this. Although my stations didn't restore, I still see the dialog with:

MPD Error
Unexpected end of JSON input

multiple times during the restart process. So I'm not sure if my (corrupted?) station data got "restored" and ignored, or was never restored and there's a different problem. I made a backup of the restored system, and I'll look for differences in the two backups, but is there anything else I can check? I can see that JPGs for stations I added are present in both backups, but I'm not sure how to grok the JSON files. The two JSON files are very close in size: old is 125,894 and new is 125,861.

In any case, "autoplay after start" works as expected now.

RE: "Autoplay after start" broken in 7.6.1 - TheOldPresbyope - 01-18-2022

@Busybox

Are you saying you added custom radio stations via the Library/Radio Folder and then they weren't backed up/restored? That's working for me.

OTOH, I don't think moOde yet backs up/restores custom playlists (but I've been known to be wrong before Rolleyes).

Kent

RE: "Autoplay after start" broken in 7.6.1 - Tim Curtis - 01-18-2022

Playlists are not backed up by the System Config Backup/Restore utility but they can easily be backed up by copying them from the Samba share named "Playlists".
