Hi Wayne,

For Moode 2.5 I was able to automate ALSA volume configuration based on MPD volume settings and presence or absence of hardware (ALSA) volume controller. This is a long overdue feature that should eliminate the "no volume" issue and make setup easier :-)

Tim

Tim,

That sounds great
I've been off the forum for a while.
When is 2.5 due?

Cheers

Hi Wayne,

Final release in Jan 2016 but there will be a test release in Dec 2015.

Moode 2.5 is a pre-3.0 complete rewrite of the 2.x code base, everything! The bulk of the work is done including a new sql / session interface. Performance in all areas of the application has been substantially improved. This plus the usb new hot plug capability is going to make the player easy to setup and use :-)

Hi Tim,

If im sending music from my ipad to the pi via airplay (apple music)
and I have upsampling enabled in moode, will that stream be upsampled? Or does upsampling only effect file based streams?

Many thanks Wayne

Hi Wayne,

MPD resampling only affects song files or radio stations. Shairport-sync (Airplay receiver) resamples rates other than 16/44.1 to 16/44.1 using its own builtin resampler. It can also use SoX resampler if configured to do so.

Hi Tim,
I'm have running Moode 2.4 since it's release with no problems (great stuff - thank you!!)

Until ... I upgraded my Mac Mini 2010 to El Capitan last week. Since then I have been unable to play via Airplay from my iPhone 5C and if I attempt to upload via my Mac desktop finder the Pi crashes requiring a hard boot to restore communication. Is this a know issue with El Capitan or am I alone?
cheers,
Mike

Hi Mike,

I do all the dev on Macbook Air running Yos and don't have any experience yet with ElCap.

I seem to recall that one of the other forum users, RobTweed I think, did an ElCap upgrade and had some issues.
