Upcoming moOde 9.0.0 (Bookworm)

[Tim Curtis]

Hi,

This is a status thread for upcoming moOde 9.0.0 (Bookworm) release (Q2 2024)

   

- Releases for moOde 9 series will be 64-bit only
- New image only, there is no in-place update from 8 to 9
- There may be a public beta at some point to help with QA testing

Some initial Pi-5 observations are that performance is super fast including boot time, localUI startup, WebUI  and so on. Below are some screen shots showing Pi-5 HDMI out playing 6-channel FLAC to an AVR connected to a Samsung 7 series TV displaying the LocalUI (no screen shot).

               

Here's some perf numbers with the animated now-playing EQ icon. With just the static now-playing icon load is 1%.

Code:

pi@moode-test1:~ $ moodeutl -m
CPU: 1.7 GHz | Load: 12% / 50C | Memory: 10% used | Disk: 13% used / 24G free | PHP: 11 workers
