Control Moode from Android - Black_Jack - 10-31-2018

Hello
Could you advice Android software for remote control of RPI with Moode Audio Player, please.
Rune and Volumio have a application on Google Play...
I`m sorry for trivial question, I`m newbie in that

Just enter the IP address of your Moode Player into the Chrome browser. If you then add that page to your home screen it will function like an app.

It has its own Web GUI so you can access from any web browser. You can also use applications such as BubbleUPnP to send streams from Tidal/Qobuz/GoogleMusic etc


RE: Control Moode from Android - Black_Jack - 10-31-2018

I know about Web GUI.
I would like to use other way....
I think I need MPD Client like MPDroid or M.A.L.P. for control Moode without WEB GUI.

Volumio or RuneAudio apps are nothing else then just an web gui pages in app case Wink

There is an app for pi/mpd control.... tested and works with moode.
EDIT... now not working with latest release...sent the developer an alert.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.trans_code.music314.paid&hl=en

as rikardo1979 notes these apps are wrappers for the web gui

Why would anyone pay $$ for an app that just does "Add to home screen" which is already a built in feature in IOS and Android.

Well, back in the day as a newbie linux user it had 2 things that made using MoOde more pleasant...

...network auto-discovery.... (from an Android device... that still does not do dns resolution...Wink
...the entire screen available to the web application...more real-estate and less distraction...

Adding the moOde page to the home screen satisfies your second point. 

Both points were addressed in my Guide http://moodeaudio.org/forum/showthread.php?tid=179
(sorry about the missing images; I need to find an alternative hosting service). 

One downloads an general-purpose app and uses it to discover the moOde player. From it, one opens the moOde UI in a web browser, and then saves it to the home screen. Easy peasy no-cost solution that IMHO replicates the functionality of the Pi Music app already mentioned.

The real question is, what does the OP want that isn't met with either the moOde UI or existing third-party apps which drive one of the renderers baked into moOde?
