[How To] CD playback

Oh, dear, those weird filenames suggest to me that the moOdeCDPlay-master.zip file was unzipped on some other host running a different O/S and then its contents copied over to the moOde player (or the github repo was cloned to the other host and then the individual files were copied over).

Based on their sizes and locations, they appear to be the correct files, just with corrupted filenames (so, for example, your 'addaudiocd.service'&'\r' file is my addaudiocd.service file).

I overlooked another critical file which gets copied over to its proper directory by the install script

Code:

pi@m82x64b:~ $ ls -l /etc/udev/rules.d/*srX.rules
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 259 Oct 18 12:38 /etc/udev/rules.d/99-srX.rules

My guess is that on your system this file too has a weird name along the lines of '99-srX.rules'&'\r'

If it weren't for the file renaming, I think you'd be playing tracks.

So, what to do? The cleanest approach would be to delete all the offending files, reboot, and repeat the install instructions in the GitHub repo README. This includes downloading a fresh copy of the zip file and unzipping it directly on the moOde player.

The following commands should succeed in removing all the weirdly named files. These are to be entered from the command line of the moOde player and the asterisks are required. 

Code:

sudo rm /etc/systemd/system/*audiocd.service*
sudo rm /usr/local/bin/*audiocd.sh*
sudo rm /etc/udev/rules.d/*99-srX.rules*

 
NOTE: I have (finally!) updated the github repo to fix the install script so commenting out the lines containing the if statement is not required to install to a moOde 8.x player. As well, the update has fixed the harmless 'unknown' UNIT section message logged to syslog. Hence, I recommend downloading the moOdeCDPlay-master.zip file again.

PS - a knowledgeable Linux user likely would just rename the offending files. Safer to assume the files are in fact not to be trusted.
