    Default Volumio 2

    Day 2... Switch on and all tabs an titles have common written in front of say the browser tab or play tab etc... Half my music is not showing. Obviously not by any means the finished article. Add to the fact mine broke lasr time very quickly it looks like this is corrupting again.
    Have to say i quite liked the interface, although picture backgrounds have also now disappeared and i just have the grey button left, so in now cannot be changed.. It also sounds pretty good, although no sampling changes are allowed.

    All in would say, not in Moodes class overall, although if they can sort out the obvious problems it could be a winner. Currently its just a weiner

    same experience here... common.tab's suddenly and not indexing all music. I also had to install it twice to get the interface working ... it's running on my elderly backup Pi. I still think Moode is much more stable. Still feels a bit "beta".. but promising.

    I can't get mine to display the album art on my files. All I get is a collage of multiple album covers displaying. Other problems are when moving through a playlist using my tablet it keeps highlighting songs and moving them around in the list instead of just letting me scroll through them. Playlists are in a different format to Volumio 1.5 and Modde so existing lists don't work with Volumio 2. It has a long way to go in my opinion.

    Haven't tried the new version yet but have been very happy with the version I have (not sure which but it's the one before 2). No crashing or any issues at all. Powers off properly too so haven't had any SD card corruption or anything like that.

    Well my trial is over. Moode reinstalled. I had tracks within albums in wrong order etc as well. Album art was there on ones i tried.
    Certainly no real competition to moode as is, and if it has taken them this long to get to wherethis is, i am not holding my breath for a fixed version

    This player has been advancing and is now out of beta with version 2.001 available to download.

    Unfortunately I cannot get it to connect to my NFS server. Everything else appears to be working.

    I get distorted sound over Airplay with Moode, same with Rune so its back to Volumio 1.55 the only version that does everything according to my needs.

    My primary computer is a Mac and until recently I had not found a reliable app to flash images to the SD cards. Last week I found a really nice App called Etcher which is super reliable and pretty fool proof. Just wanted to pass on the link in case anyone has a Mac and is looking for a good Flashing app.

    Etcher requires OS X 10.9 or later, and I'm not there yet so I've used this: http://www.tweaking4all.com/software...pple-pi-baker/
