Official moOde 8 support thread

[Tim Curtis]

Hello Tim,
Try to install new 8.0.1 version tonight but commands :

Code:

gpio readall

is not found anymore. Is it a normal behavior or a regression ?
It use to work before, so now stuck with my little scripts.
What need to be install ? WiringPi seems not to be supported anymore (wrong?).
I also have samba problems and cannot mount my music sources (error 115). I haven't found any solution to this for now.
Any clue ?
Tank you for support

Right, WiringPi is a long since deprecated project and so not supported anymore in moOde.
http://wiringpi.com/wiringpi-deprecated/

The new Linux kernels don't support NTLM for Samba mounts due to security issues. I don't know if this is what is causing your issue though.

Thk, so what should be the best solution to replace my little script command with gpio commands :

Code:

gpio -g mode 04 out
gpio -g write 04 0
gpio -g mode 17 in
gpio -g write 17 0
gpio -g mode 22 out
gpio -g write 22 1

while [ 1 ]; do
 if [ "$(gpio -g read 17)" = "1" ]; then
       echo "Setting pin GPIO4 High"
       gpio mode 7 out
       gpio write 7 1
       /bin/sleep 1
       echo "Setting pin GPIO4 Low"
       gpio write 7 0
       echo "RaspberryPi shutdown"
       mpc stop
       systemctl stop nginx
       poweroff
       break
 fi
 /bin/sleep 0.25
done

exit 0

You will prolly need to rewrite the script in Python.

moOde includes RPi.GPIO version 0.70

Hi!

In the new 8.0 and 8.01 Moode OS versions,  I have persistent problems with DSD files either in the default or the direct output mode position.
In my PS Loxje D50 (DSD Dac) reading DSD produces a strong white noise with the signal at a much lower level while in an other dac. In the PS Audio Dig. Link III (not a DSD Dac), there is an erratic behaviour. Sometimes succeeds the conversion but some other times there are the same symptoms as with Loxje Dac. I should add that both dacs are recognised and behave excellently with all the rest of the content either in flac or mp3.
Please note that I did not have any of these problems with the 7.x versions.

Does anyone else experience similar issues with DSD in the new OS?

Is it something that can be addressed in future updates?

with my acknowledgements for your brilliant work,

I ran a quick test with some DSF files at DSD64, 128 and 256 rates and no issues playing to USB connected Allo Revolution DAC. MPD set to Native DSD or DoP, ALSA output mode plughw or hw.

IIRC white noise when playing DSD is caused by having MPD set to DoP but the audio device not supporting DoP.

No problems on my end with DSD64/128 on a Topping D30 Pro with Native DSD (Default) setting in MPD.

Pi with the HifiBerry HD DAC.  Everything worked perfectly under M7 using Tim’s overlay fix.  But using same overlay and config in v8 gives me an ALSA error:

Failed to open "ALSA Default" (alsa); Failed to open ALSA device "_audioout": No such file or directory

Which log should I be looking into for clues?

I don’t know if this is relevant or not, but I swear v7 did not call the HD DAC an I2S dac, but v8 seems to automatically select that when I select the proper overlay. 

Thanks,
Mike

Version 8.0.0 or 8.0.1 ?

Anyone tried Bluetooth functionality. Running 8.01 on RPI3B+ and getting following screen after scan. Same behaviour from terminal. Not the same behaviour that I had with 7.6.1 which worked as expected.

Version 8.0.0 or 8.0.1 ?

Works here with the version 8.0.1, but need one change in config.txt

Disable the onboard EEPROM by adding

force_eeprom_read=0

to your boot/config.txt file.

Hi all,

I am having problems generating my library. It takes quite some minutes for the busy indicator to stop but there is still no music in the library. The thumbnail generation process seems to be working because I can see what it is doing using the View Status button. That also means it is not the NAS, which I also confirmed by going to the mount point on the pi.

If I use the update library command, I can see empty album folders appearing in the folder view but with no files in them.

Looking in the MPD log, I see file not found messages but the file is there in the mount folder. I can post logs this evening.

This may have been occurring before I updated to moode 8.0.1. It was my reason for updating but I didn't check it so extensively before the update.


The test sound file works.

Could you please advise how to troubleshoot this and which logs I should post?

Best wishes
Sean
