Sheer madness, all attempts at re-download and reflashing this card or another card, using either my MacBook Air, and also a Linux Mint box fail to yield the switch in the settings UI for the onboard WiFi and BT adapter.
All browsers on macOS (Safari, Chrome, Firefox), and also Chromium on Linux Mint simply don't show it. I reformatted the cards on the Linux box, just to be sure no remaining Boot partition was somehow fouling things up, as unfortunately the macOS Disk Utility has been steadily ruined over the years.
I'm at a loss, the only other thing I can try is Windows tomorrow at work if I have time.
I'm also beginning to wonder about this 4B board which is a 2GB model and brand new. It for whatever reason was showing up in Moode 7 as an unknown Pi model/version.

'Fraid so, the code used was not supported any more, and no alternatives were presented.

How to remove the little white animation that appears next to the currently playing track..??
I like the "white animation" but don't like the "HD" badge next to a high res track under cover art in the same screen. Can't please us all
I also like the animation, which can't be turned off at the moment. I guess if enough folk hate it it might become a candidate for an option. The HD badge is already an option though in preferences/library/show sample rate, many options for what to show.
Thanks, but that option also turns it off in the library view as well as under the cover view in the playing screen. It only happens when playing HD tracks. I have "text" set in the sample rate, but the HD badge is still showing on the playing screen when playing HD tracks. Not sure if this is a feature or bug.
I see what you mean, if one selects any of the options for sample rate, you also get the HD badge on the playback screens. I'm not sure if that is deliberate in the design either.

The playing track is highlighted in the queue by having a different colour, the activity is shown by the progress 'worm' and time count and I can hear the track being played... why would I want a bouncy row of sticks to tell me what is already patently obvious..??

It is partly an accessibility thing. For those who need a strong contrast on all the text, the highlight colour of the now playing track can be difficult to see. The other cues tell you something is playing, but the animation points at which track in the list is playing.

That last sentence clarifies why the wifi button isn't shown. moOde only shows the wifi button for supported Pi models.
So the problem is why is your Pi not identified ? Something wrong with the Pi or does the detection fails ?
Can you run the following command from a terminal (system config > Open Web SSH Terminal) and show us the output:
Code: vcgencmd otp_dump | awk -F: '/^30:/{print substr($2,5)}'

I agree. Banish the bouncy sticks!

Argh! The RPF keeps slipping in more revision codes without a lot of fanfare.
