It occurs to me that my "Copy it to the SDCARD" might have been too cryptic.

To be scanned by MPD, music files must be in the /mnt/SDCARD directory. How you get them there depends on the method of transfer you are using.

1) easy way: when moOde is up and running it exposes all of MPD's music directories via Samba (SMB) shares: NAS, Playlists, Radio, SDCard. You can access these shares from a Windows, MacOS, or Linux host via your LAN. For example, I'm using the Caja file manager on my Linux host. If I look for shares on my Network I see my moOde host. I drill down through it to SDCard (note, you'll get a prompt for the moOde login credentials) and create subdirectories, copy over music files, etc.

2) almost easy way: when an SDCard with moOde installed on it is plugged into another computer it will show up as a drive with file systems in two different partitions: boot and rootfs. The /mnt/SDCARD directory is in the rootfs file system. You can manipulate subdirectories and files directly. I have done this only on Linux hosts so can't comment about using other OSes.

3) more techie way: when moOde is up and running one can copy files directly over the LAN using scp on another host. Because of the permissions system on moOde, I find it easiest to copy them as user pi to user pi's home directory and then ssh to moOde so I can move them to the /mnt/SDCARD directory as superuser. If you know what this means, then you know how. If you don't then stick to 1) or 2).

I tried 3 first but gave up quickly on the permission, but 1 was easy through Mac or Windows.

Anyway. I still could not hear the 2nd time code. I do not know why it does not work.

Finally, I tried Foobar2000 on the Mac and the Windows machine. Playing the sweep to the moOde upnp and that worked, so I got the sweep measurement imported into the rew. I am working on testing different filters now for my room.

Thanks for helping out. I do not know why I could not get it to work the other way. Moving on to listening music.
