Hi,
moOde 8.2.0 is available for download at https://moodeaudio.org :-)
This release is based on RaspiOS Bullseye Lite (2022-09-06) and Linux kernel 5.15 and includes important new features, updates and bug fixes. Starting with this release all subsequent in-place updates will update any >= 8.2.0 release to the latest release.
New features
* File sharing via NFS server or SMB server
This feature enables moOde to function as an NFS server and/or SMB server.
* Access Point (AP) Router mode
This feature provides forwarding between moOde's built in Access Point and an Ethernet connection.
* CoverView clock mode and wide layout
This feature provides an option for displaying a digital clock instead of cover art and a second option for specifying whether to use the default layout where the cover art is centered with metadata below it or a wide layout where cover art is on the left and metadata is on the right.
* Automatic check for available software update
This option when turned on will automatically display a notification when a software update is available. The option is off by default.
Update and bug fix summary (refer to the release notes for the complete list)
- Bump to Linux kernel 5.15.61 build #1579 (new image only)
- Bump to librespot 0.4.2

- Fix SSID's from scan list not being escaped in Network Config
- Fix System Config WiFi/BT On/Off buttons not showing for Zero 2 W
- Fix Alsa-cdsp XRUNS in certain usage scenarios affecting CamillaDSP
- Fix Save queue to playlist overwrites first two items with EXT tags
In-place update
