Hi all,
I've been using moOde since version 6 and now am using the updated version 8.3.7- it's an absolutely fantastic application.
To carry out an audio test I tried to install a new 64 bit version on an RP 4 using a new SD card identical to the one I normally use and which works (Sandisk Ultra A1 128 GB) but when I connect MoOde it is very slow and after a while it displays a "system busy" message.
I tried with two different SD cards, a new one, I installed moode using Raspberry pi imager in windows 10 by setting the wifi data or not, I connected with an ethernet cable but nothing to do.
Please could you give me some advice to solve my problem?
Thank you so much

TTYTT we already do not know what else should be done in order to have people read the setup guide instead of doing on their own, and then coming over flooding the threads and wasting a couple of days...
You are just one more drop to the vase; and there will be others...

Dear Notul,
I don't want to cause controversy but perhaps you didn't read my answer carefully - I read and reread the documentation but nowhere did I read that it was necessary to set the parameters in the Pi Imager app as I wrote in my post so it's possible to make a mistake - also as I wrote I had never used Pi Imager but for version 8 Balena etcher.
I don't expect the documentation to be so detailed and once again I thank Tim for his commitment.
For the rest I just hope that my experience and the information I have indicated in my post can be useful to other users - after all, this is what the forum is for.
Cheers.

Adding the note will do no harm but the important thing here is that Imager has to be set to enable SSH in the flashed image.
Either password authentication or public key authentication work fine. HOWEVER I'm bewildered why someone would choose the latter if they don't understand what it means and how it works. Balena Etcher has no facility for setting any of this so it's not like there's learned behavior to unlearn.
In my case, just flashed a fresh Bookworm Lite with "public key authentication only" selected. This in Imager 1.8.5 on my Linux Mint laptop. Once "Run SSH-KEYGEN" completed for the first time it wrote the appropriate keys for user "pi" (I kept the traditional username) into the Bookworm image AND ALSO into the .ssh keystore in my account on the laptop. Booted the image on a RPi4B. Now I can ssh to it as user pi from my account on my laptop without entering a password. Just as advertised. Repeated the exercise using moOde 8.3.7 instead of vanilla Bookworm Lite. Again, success.
Of course, once this is enabled the idea of setting a new password in moOde is useless.
Just my two cents worth.
Regards,
Kent
