Trying to use moodeaudio just as I used to with no problems a few years back, that is:
- running on a raspberry 3b+, with a digi hat connected to my external dac
- sourcing the music files from an external HD, connected via usb to my home router
the router is a fritzbox 3490 and by searching the forum I have seen that others had issues. I've also seen that one of the moderators explained how he iisn't familiar with the fritzbox
However, back in 2019 or so I happily and easily used the then current moodeaudio version with the same setup and never had problems. Too bad I don't have the microSD card where it was...
Long story short, the drive attached to my fritz is called "sea2tb" (it's a 2tb seagate) and it is mounted in a 3.5" enclosure, whose firmware identifies it as "ASMT-2105-01".
The share is via SMB. The router being oldie, it is vers=1.0
From any PC or android device I can access it easily. The same goes for Volumio, which however I would rather not use.
So I would say there are no issues with the HD, nor with the fritz's NAS function
With moodeaudio, I have tried countless times and I have also tried to use different ways to identify the HD, i.e. I have set moode to look for the drive itself (name: sea2tb), or the enclosure which houses it (name: ASMT-2105-01)
I should add that the main music folder is called "p2p" and that I use the same name as alias for the library
I never succeded, and would like to post the error logs I got:
The userid XYZ and the password ABCABCABC are not the ones I actually use
As you can see, when I only identify the HD as sea2tb I get the error
"Server abruptly closed the connection"
Instead, where I use the enclosure's name ASTM I get
"bad usage"
The only conclusion I'm able to reach is that the second error is somewhat worse, in that moode fails to see the drive (understandably, I would think).
The first error log makes me thing that yes, moode manages to find the drive but there is a problem with the communication. I.E., the problem is arguably related to the SMB share.
To this regard, I should add that by default moode shows these parameters in the relevant section
To these, I have added in some cases the SMB version, so that it reads
Neither setting works. If I try and update the NAS libary from the main page, the update popup window appears for a few seconds, the "busy" icon in the top right corner spins for a few seconds, and nothing else happens. My library remains empty.
If that's relevant, the library is very large: the 2TB drive is almost full and there must be about 3000 folders (each being one album)
According to the online tutorials I've found I'm not doing anything wrong, yet evidently this is not the case.
The same settings work with Volumio, but as I said I would rather not use it.
Any suggestions on what I'm doing wrong or whether my NAS is not compatible with the current version of Moodeaudio?
Incidentally, I have found and tried to use the latest version of Moodeaudio 8, but it was still impossible to load the library
Could it be that I have to downgrade to the version of 2019-2020 (possibly version 6?), provided that it's still available somewhere?
Any help is appreciated
