I just made a fresh install of Moode 7.1.0 which I discover coming from 6.7.1. Thank you for the updates regarding the album/tag views which are better suited for a classical audio collection.

There is still/yet an issue with the thumbnail resolution in preferences/library/ : the "auto" setting still does not seem to work as intended and lower resolution (200px and 300px) are unfortunately no more available.

My screen is a full HD 13,3" (notebook). All the art covers are 500p x 500 px. The "auto" mode generates 100px thumbnails. In  the standard Album view (6 columns) these thumnbnails are scaled up by Firefox in full screen mode to 180 px which leads to blurry thumbail covers. The auto mode behavior has not changed from 6.7.1 (I did not use it) but it is now impossible to force the resolution to 200px thumbnails which is the best (slight downscaling).

200px is reported by Firefox to be the resolution of radio icons which are displayed as 180px.

There is yet no other choice in Album mode but to use of resolution of 400 px which is far too much and makes the UI  not as snappy as before.

Q1 : is it possible to restore the lower resolutions  (including 200px) ?

The system info tab shows two parameters : cover blur (=20px) and cover scale (1.25).

Q2 : What are these settings, are they linked with the "auto" issue and where can they be set ?

Thank you for you help.

Regards.

Philippe

Q1 : is it possible to restore the lower resolutions (including 200px) ?
A: I'm not sure I understand whats causing your performance issue. Any modern Laptop should easily and quickly render 400px images. My old iPad mini has no problem quickly rendering 600px cover images. Safari Browser.

A; Those settings control how the full screen cover backdrop appears. They have nothing to do with cover thumbnails.

I'll try to test later today or tomorrow.

That would be best, but just so you know: 

With swap enabled, an RPi ZeroW updates from 7.0.1 to 7.1.0 in 87 minutes using the stock update procedure including 'make -j4'.

I just finished testing a version of the update that includes the upnp build output (thx to @bitlab) and does simple copying to the target dirs rather than compiles. It seems to work and but needs additional testing. I'll post instructions to Test Team.

Total time < 10 mins.

Just noticed when playing using airplay it no longer displays a disconnect message like before but let's you access all the normal menus, 

if you try to play anything from  moode it displays a message that MPD is in use, if you pause playing on the airplay player after a few moments you can start playing from moode again!

I've tried but it didn't help   Huh
And I've also tried with another browser. Same result.

Works fine here, have you tried clearing your browser cache?

Thumbnails resolution

Hi Tim,

Thank you for your answer.

Quote:Q1 : is it possible to restore the lower resolutions (including 200px) ?

A: I'm not sure I understand whats causing your performance issue. Any modern Laptop should easily and quickly render 400px images. My old iPad mini has no problem quickly rendering 600px cover images. Safari Browser.

400px thumbnails (the minimal enforceable resolution) are obviously overkill for a full HD screen displaying the standard album view (6 columns + spacing), but we can live with it since they are cached by the browser. I personnaly sticked to the info related to this item in 6.7.1 advising not to use unnecessary high resolutions.

You might have a look on the "auto" mode which as previously mentionned does not deliver any kind of optimal resolution (100px instead of 200 in present case for the browser to downscale to 180 in full screen mode), but I suspect there are other priorities !

Thank you again for Moode and your attention.

Philippe

My personal advice, from my experience of the administration of hundreds of Windows servers and dozens of Linux servers, is to never disable swap.

Normally it won't be used, but in the rare cases that it is needed, it's better than no swap.

Cheers,

Phil
