Official moOde 8 support thread

[pimvd]

For me, the 'Audio Info' button from the menu doesn't work anymore.

Also, if I click on the trackinfo below the cover art, a windows opens with "Audio Information". Here the TRACK button works but the PLYABACK button doesn't do anything.

My workaround would be to use a Raspberry Pi running OpenMediaVault instead of the router as your NAS. Really easy to set up.

Cheers,

Phil

Would that entail running a separate RPi with a screen?

I used to use Router as file server but for quite some time now I use a Pi headless running moOde with music on a USB drive. The Samba share is automatically created when the USB drive is plugged in and it shows up just fine in a SCAN.

The share name is whatever label was assigned to the USB drive. In my case I assigned it the label "VFAT256" indicating it was formatted as VFAT (Fat32) and is 256GB in size. I created a folder named FLAC on the drive and copied one of my collections to it.

When creating a Music Source in Library Config it's listed as HOST/VFAT256 in a SCAN. Then add the folder name FLAC to the Path make a complete Path of HOST/VFAT256/FLAC

I also use the Pi as a Multiroom Sender :-)

Once again Tim beat me to a reply by minutes. I think his coffee must be stronger than mine.

I have been running OpenMediaVault on a headless Odroid HC1 24/7 for years, chosen because it comes packaged in a tray which holds my SSD securely. OMV can be spun up on many different devices and is convenient because it integrates so many typical NAS functions along with a nice GUI-based manager. You wouldn't be far wrong to think of it as a poor-man's version of Synology DSM. There are other open-source possibilities as well; packages currently known as TrueNAS Core and XigmaNAS come to mind.

As Tim says though, every moOde player has an Samba server built in and that's hard to beat for convenience. LIkewise, spinning up a Samba server or an FTP server is dead easy on any Linux host.

And then there's Window file sharing. I run Windows only on virtual machines and only for certain programs which won't run in Wine so I won't comment on my successes and failures in cross-platform file sharing.

Hello , I think I have a bug to report . I have two Raspberry zero w with Moode . Version 7.6.1 was previously running on both of them. Have now written the one with the latest version. The Zero w also starts in AP mode , but can not longer find my router during the scan. However, routers in my neighborhood are found. The SSID of my Router is "TP-LINK_2B91 " .
My location is germany .

I have a Zero W. 
I'll test later this morning to see what the scan reports in AP mode and whether it finds my Router.

No problem on Zero W listing my 2GHz SSID after a scan. 

On a 3B+ the scan lists both my 2GHz SSID and 5GHz SSID.

Problem solved ! It was actually my router. Since here in Germany the wifi networks are jostling in the lower channels, I switched to channel 12 and had it to myself. This setting worked fine in previous versions of Moode as well. I am currently using channel 8 and my router is found by Moode 8.0.0. I assume that it is due to the new operating system substructure (→ Raspberry Pi OS Lite 11.2).

Thanks, that helped. It's working now.

And thanks for this wonderful piece of software. I use it everyday. I made a donation, what i always do after a major update.

Ugh, It's hard to test for this kind of regression before release. That's why n.0 versions are so often immediately followed by an point release
