Official moOde 8 support thread

[Keso-moode]

Successfully upgraded to 8.0.0

Small glitches with backup/restore:
- Search site in Preferences is not preserved
- Sorting and grouping of radio stations is not preserved

Rest so far so good on RPi connected to dac8 Stereo from okto research

[philrandal]

User added stations are given id's > 499 and thats what distinguishes them from the moOde built in stations but it only works if that 499 row is in cfg_radio table.

I'll try to get an in-place update made this week to fix this.

Ah, I understand now. 

These are just minor niggles. Looks good so far.

ok there is a problem. with camilladsp turned on
when the song ends it's a new song with no sound
or the music plays for 3 seconds and then silence

I just did a quick test setting Camilla to "Flat" and songs played in succession without any issues.

Whats your configuration like?

[Mr.R0b0t]

I had the same settings as in version 7. Generally, each settings cause that there is no sound after 3 seconds or a new song

Can you share the best settings?

Hi, 
I don't know if it's a Moode related bug, but my raspberry pi 3 internal wifi nic can't connect with ap on channel 11
Country settings is Italy and version 7.6 was fine

[DRONE7]

Today I tried to upgrade from moOde 7.6.1 to 8.0.0.
Burned an image with Etcher. And selected the Allo Piano 2.1 dac. Tested for sound and it worked. Because I have an Allo Kali Reclocker I selected under driver options --> glb-mclk Enabled. After reboot no more sound. Reverting to Disabled did not solve the problem. Several restarts of my Raspberry Pi 3B+ still no sound to be heard.
Apparently it should work as the timer on the mainscreen progresses. I've tried all kind of settings, including volume settings (software, hardware etc), but no sound to be heared. Also reburning the image on the same SD did not work. Using a new SD did resolve the problem shortly, but altering the setting under driver options seems to destroy something.
below a moodeutl -l log just after changing the setting from Disabled to enabled.

I don't have a Piano or Kali anymore and so will not be able to try and debug but in the log the record below is suspicious since IIRC the Piano 2.1 does support hardware volume.

Code:

20220314 081321 worker: Hdwr volume controller not detected

To troubleshoot try the following:

1. Fresh image
2. No Kali, just the Piano
3. Verify that moOde log shows "Hardware volume controller detected"

4. Repeat 2 and 3 but with the Kali

5. In Audio Config set "glb-mclk Enabled"

6. Verify /boot/config.txt has the line below

Code:

dtoverlay=allo-piano-dac-plus-pcm512x-audio,glb_mclk

7. Reboot

8. Examine moOde log for "Hardware volume controller not detected" and if present then it would suggest some sort of issue with the Piano plus driver in kernel 5.15.y.

9. To revert set Named I2S device to "None" in Audio Config.

I can confirm some oddity with setting the volume control preference. I can set Fixed/Hardware/Software.
Fixed and Software behave as expected but Hardware has no control and outputs  as Fixed (0dB output)
Is the Piano Hardware controller exposed when used with Kali ??

Other settings to note... the Kali 24 bit bug remains so O/P has to set Sox resampling to 32 bit.
I changed the output mode from plug:hw to Direct (hw)

All 3 volume controls give output.

From the O/P logs

Code:

20220314 081318 worker: MPD config: (0:Allo Piano 2.1 Hi-Fi DAC | mixer:(HDMI) | card:0)

mixer is HDMI...odd if the Pi restarted after the Piano was selected in hardware.

Just checked the dip-switches on the piano 2.1 and I have both set to OFF.

it seems that kernel 5.15 does not support SMB1 - ntlm anymore !?

Try adding

sec=ntlm, vers=1.0

to the mount parameters.

A log message like

Code:

CIFS: VFS: Use of the less secure dialect vers=1.0 is not recommended unless required for access to very old servers

is informational and not a statment of error.

From the IP address it appears you are using a file-sharing function on your router as your NAS. What is the router? How have you made sure the share name is "CD"? How have you inferred that "ntlm" is in play and the protocol level version is "1.0"?

As Phil has said, you can force these parameters in the Advanced flags settings in the Music Source screen but they have to be correct for the source.

ETA - and as Tim has said, the SCAN function does a good job of figuring out the protocol level version in play.
