Problem: Auto-Play radio stream (on weekday mornings) immediately after power on
#6
OK, so if there is no power to moOde then it can't run the script to play your radio station at 6:30.  If you are manually turning on the amp and waiting for that to boot the Pi you have two options that I can think of.

  1. In m/configure/audio set the "Autoplay after start" to ON, then you can turn the amp on, wait for moOde to boot at which point it will begin playing what ever was playing when it turned off.  Obviously that method will require you to select the correct station before you shut it down.
  2. Set your alarm clock function to about 5 minutes after you turn the amp on.  This way the amp supplies power and moOde has time to boot up, discover what time it is from the network, then run the alarm script at the right time after it has started properly.
I suspect however that the best thing to do really is simply power your moOde device from it's own supply and not turn it off.  If you are killing power to the amp to turn things off then moOde is effectively being shut down in an uncontrolled way every day, which won't be good for it.
