Keep Moode playlists when updating to latest release! - bmanone - 09-30-2018
This is how I solved the problem of Window7 not seeing a linux partition and my SSH - FTP client not having permission having permission to write files on the RaspberryPi. I hope this will help some of you that want to keep your playlist with each new MoOde update: Here's link to the write up with screen shots - Moode Playlist Save
1. Using SSH Client - FTP into your MoOde player and copy the Play list folder here:
/var/lib/mpd/playlists/
2. Copy the folder to your desktop hard drive.
3. Install the latest moOde release onto your SD card.
4. Open SD card on you Windows 7 computer. Copy your playlist to the top directory of the SD card (windows 7 can't see the Linux partition on the SD card):
5. Boot you Raspberry Pi with the newly installed Moode player.
6. SSH into your moode player, open a cmd window if one is not already open.
7. Type: Cd /
8. Type: ls
9. type: sudo fdisk -l
10. Linux can't yet access the dos partition Type:
sudo mkdir /mnt/sdcard2/
sudo mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /mnt/sdcard2/
cd /mnt/sdcard2/
cd playlists/
Ls
11. Copy the playlist files to the moOde playlist folder, type:
sudo cp -v *.m3u /var/lib/mpd/playlists/
12. Check your work, type:
cd /var/lib/mpd/playlists/
Ls
13. Unmount the dos partition, type: sudo umount /mnt/sdcard2
14. Good work - All done, now it's time to set you your new player!
