I re-installed moode again on my raspi, and now my moode player work (with the same ntfs partition on the same usb drive).
So it seems that the issue I met was not caused by the usb drive and the ntfs partition. Probably some corrupted database or OS (after a hard shutdown ?).
I have had such an issue (non responsive moode system that cannot read music anymore) from time to time, about every year… and I end up with re-installation. And it is a pain… (I never could pre-set wifi network so I have to enter access point mode first. And I never could restore a moode backup, neither settings nor radio, camilla DSP settings and files… so I have to setup the whole thing).
Now, once you are finished with setting everything up, do a backup and save the file for future use.
Furthermore, since the new installation requires that you create a username + password using the Raspberry Imager, there is the possibility to also setup a wireless network, so that at the first boot moOde is visible in your LAN without the need of starting the AP first.
The installation guide is your friend.
P.S.
It's weird you have to reinstall moOde about once a year... you do not regularly shut it down by just removing the power cord, do you?
Not the OP but perhaps you know the answer to my question. I have two moOde installs, on a Pi 4 and a Pi Zero W. I can't have shut either of them down via a ssh command or menu option more a handful of times; I use them both daily and also just "pull the plug" and have never had corruption. But I've recently started playing with the Pi game emulation "distro" Batocera and I noticed that if I do an rsync to the sd card, interrupt it and then restart it it always starts from the beginning, as opposed to moOde and every other linux distro I've used where rsync just seamlessly continues every time without fail. I wonder if it's because Batocera is set to always write and flush data to the device immediately and that if you interrupt it it just deletes the temp file and flushes that too. If this is some way linux (well, the file system) can be set up, and if you're concerned that this might potentially cause corruption to moOde if you're unlucky, perhaps moOde could be configured the same way?
