Upcoming moOde 9.0.0 (Bookworm)

[Tim Curtis]

Hi,
small status report, I'm trying image_2024-04-10-moode-r900~pre3-arm64-lite on a Pi4, inside the Stealth V3 enclosure, with the Waveshare 7.9 display. With the appropriate config.txt content (which I will document in a later phase, when everything works), it boots, display the console, starts the local display and even answers to the touch screen beautifully. After setting the appropriate USB output, music plays (some radio). Amazing performance !

Now on issues:

The first issue, I can't start squeezelite renderer. It says started and stopped if I toggle the switch, but there is no process running, and no player appearing in LMS. In the moode.log, I see only `20240418 212416 worker: Job slsvc` when toggling the switch. Specifying the IP of LMS on the option doesn't help. I think it doesn't want to start at all.

Other issue : the "sys-config.php" page, appears fine the first time, but then answer incorrectly, and after a save, is blank. I have to start a new private browser page to continue using it, and my changes aren't saved. I wanted to turn on debugging, but I can't

hints welcome

1. Squeezelite.

I can repro this. It's due to ancient settings in the systemd unit file having to do with scheduling priority etc.
Try "systemctl status squeezelite" and you shouldl see the errors.
I'll fix for upcoming ~pre4

2. What exactly do you mean by the symptom below and how do I reproduce it?
