Hi all,

confirm what Alaini93 is seeing.

I do have a similar configuration: RPi 3B+, Iqaudio DigiAMP+ and local 7" touch connected through DSI, LAN connection.
The issue is reproducable and occurs in my setup after 2 hours when mpc is in status "paused". This is the standard status when I set the radio into standby mode late evening through IR remote lirc that disables the LCD backlight and execuctes "mpc toggle" command.
I observed the supply voltage with the oscilloscope (no anomalies).

Tried the following tests in order to further isolate the problem:
  • moode 7.1.0
  • moode 7.2.0
  • enabled HDMI-I/F in addition to local DSI
  • replaced the "mpc toggle" command by "http://<Moode-Host-Name>/command/?cmd=pause"
  • various tests with chromium parameters: Adding "--single-process" or "no-zygote --no-sandbox --single-process"
    btw: By comparing the .xinitrc file from moode 6.x with 7.x there is a small typo in the parameter setting in the current .xinitrc file. The enable-features option is missing a "-". It currently reads "-enable-features=OverlayScrollbar". But even correcting this to "--..." didn't make it running
After 2 hours of player inactivity, the memory gets swallowed by serveral chromium processes and the green RPi activity LED is continuously illuminated.
htop is indicating that the system is dead. I know that the meaning of process status "D" is different to dead, but I use it as an indication that the system is screwed. Chromium is consuming ~98% of the available memory.



I don't believe this is a moode problem, but more a chromium issue in combination with pi-OS. Nevertheless, I wanna have a radio that continues to play songs even the radio was in pause mode over night. I already did 2 other radios in the past with moode 6.x versions and they are working just great.
So, I most probably going to revert back to 6.4.2 as I promised a friend a moode music network player e/o next month.
