Hi,

moOde 8.3.0 is available for download at moodeaudio.org :-)

[Image: attachment.php?thumbnail=2728]    

This release is based on RaspiOS Bullseye Lite most recent packages as of 2023-03-14, Linux kernel 5.15.84, our suite of custom drivers and patches, and important updates and bug fixes as listed below.

New Features
  • Volume type "CamillaDSP" software volume (64-bit with dither)
  • CamillaDSP Loudness, Volume Control and Polarity Inversion configs
  • Use ALSA instead of MPD to control Hardware volume
  • Monitor in-place update via WebUI Status screen instead of SSH
Audio devices
  • ProtoDAC TDA1387 X8 (I2S)
Security (new image only)

The ISO image does not contain the userid pi, SSH service, WiFi SSID or
Access Point password. Refer to the moOde Setup Guide for details on how
to set these up.

NOTE: Until the next release always set the userid to pi otherwise some services
won't start for example xserver that the Local Display function depends on.

Updates (highlights)
  • Bump to MPD 0.23.12
  • Bump to bluez-alsa 4.0.0
  • Add ALSA buffer_time option to MPD Config
  • Add WPA3-Personal Transition Mode to Network Config
  • Improve WiFi section in startup (faster AP mode activation)
Bug fixes (highlights)
  • Mapped ALSA volume not being used to set ALSA volume max
  • Allo Piano 2.1 mixer name "Digital" no longer used by driver
  • Audioinfo does not report renderer info
  • Error not logged when source mount fails
  • Wrong PSK used in saved SSID's
In-place update

There is an in-place update available via the "CHECK for software update" button in System Config. Click the "VIEW" button to read about the contents of the update package and the instructions regarding backing up the system before applying the update and monitoring the progress of the update via the command moodeutl -t

NOTE: After the update completes and a Restart is initiated, close the Browser tab. This will avoid a situation where the System Config screen submits a second update request when it auto-refreshes. It's harmless but does cause additional time before the system becomes ready. This will not be an issue in 8.3.0 and later releases.
