Hi Grant,
Turning on Airplay starts the Airplay receiver on Moode. This allows you to stream audio from any app that supports Airplay to Moode.

Airplay is great for listening to Spotify or the likes from your iPad via moode on your pi.
Mystery Solved!
It turns out I had to name the router in the Source field. Previously (with Volumio) I used whatever I wanted in that field. My router is named Red-State (no offense to anyone intended)... I entered that - entered in all the rest including name and password and I'm in!
Really like the sound improvement with the driver made for my DAC.
Now I'm ready to try to set up the unit a built for a friend. He has a different brand of router . so this should be fun LOL.
Hi George,
I'm glad its working :-) but there definitely is no relationship whatsoever between what is entered in the Source field and what a particular Router might be named. The entry in the Source field is simply used as the folder name that is created under /mnt/NAS to serve as the mount point. This name shows up under the NAS folder in the Browse panel.
The source names that I use most often are Music and Test.
I'm not sure why the NAS mounts were failing for you, but if it happens again send email to me and I'll help troubleshoot.

Hi, The Airplay service is a separate service and shouldn't influence the SMB services at all... but you never know... ;)

Hi,
Several confirmations have been received that BBC 320K HLS streams are working in Moode 2.6 TR3 :-)

Is 90 still the software v/c level recommended?
Hi Grant,
If u are referring to the Hifiberry;s clipping at > 81 ALSA volume then answer to your question is no, that issue has been fixed in Linux kernel and Hifiberry drivers included in Moode 2.6. ALSA 100 now = 0dB for Hifiberry's. I'm planning to remove the Hifiberry volume config from PLAYER FIXES on moodeaudio.org when 2.6 is released.
-Tim
Hi mine is an audiophonics Tim. Seem to have it in my mind it was 90 alsa software in 2.5. On 2.6 either first or second release. Seems good so far although not tried out anything fancy. Just not seen anything in the set up to say where's the sweet spot was. Mine is at 90 currently

I've had a couple of times when the software locked up and I had to un plug then plug back in. Both times were when I was using Tidal. First time I was downloading - second time I just wanted to play. The AirPlay showed that it was connected to Moode and Moode play screen showed AirPlay but there was no sound. I tried to reboot and it "couldn't find the file."
Any ideas?
This is strange - the tidal works on the iPhone just not on the iPad. Easy enough to work around.
Just hit a snag on my moode 2.6 version test. Either 1 or 2.. Forgot now but went to send a ripped disc via samba share as per usual and i got a message saying insufficient space on usb... Tried it a few times and reset things etc but same problem. I put my copy of 2.5 in again and it went no problem.
Is this just a flaw on my program or is it/was it a flaw in 2.6 test code?

Just curious - is there a way to upgrade with the flash card in the pi through the gui?
maybe from within SSHCode:sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
I just tried getting moOde to work as a file player for my RPi 2B.
Most things seems to work, i have been able to get WLAN working and it has indexed my 2Tb externally powered USB disk.
I have access to the interface via it's IP Adress and all.
Audio output is over USB into an S.M.S.L M8 DAC...
The problem is, all i get out is a horribly distorted sound with the intended music way back in the noise...
The audio info screen looks like this during playback:http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...49a9a973af.jpg
The I2S is set to Off, and under MPD settings everything is set properly (to these eyes), with USB Audio.
Any ideas?
Great Tim, that worked just fine! Appreciated!
Now playing some HiRez music:
http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...69183fe6be.jpg
Sorry to harass you guys that have been using moOde for a while now!
But, im not pleased with the way the library view works and i have two main gripes:
1. If you sort on Artist-tag, dont include "the", "a" etc in the sort order (See piccie)
2. There need to be some sort of indexing, i dont know how many 'swipes' i had to spend to scroll down to this part of the Artist-list! (library disc has got some 50.000 songs, by various performers)
http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...010f21427f.jpg
Can something be done about this? On the Browse view, i have better control as the harddrive is organised into indexed folders, sorted by Album Artist which is hard tagged to, say "Beach Boys, The"
You can see the library structure on the bottom part of this screen:
http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...6916f3b240.jpg
I use the browse tab personally. Probably coz i always found it easier to find stuff...some folk find the library view good so guess its horses for courses
The way I use it for 16000+ tracks is hit the little drop down arrow and start typing who I'm looking for and it starts listing albums/artists right away, no need to scroll
:lol:
Thats a proper search!
Maybe you should pay her more 😉Quote:

I again tried 2.6 this time test release 4.. The problem adding via samba to my hdd is still there. Just comes up no space on disc although there is in fact plenty. I returned to 2.5 and it accepts new music..
Obviously i seem to be the only person to have encountered this but as its happened on 2 different releases i cant really blame my set up now.
So i will have to stick with 2.5

Hi Tim,
Hope you are well :)
Moode is great, but one thing that annoys me is when you type the name of an artist/group into the search box, and all that comes back are individual tracks from the artist/group searched on, not albums, which is quite frustrating, especially if there happens to be 20-odd relevant albums stored on your hard drive(s), and so often 100s of tracks pop up, but with no immediate access to the albums which the tracks come from.
Is there any way you could alter the software so that albums, not tracks from albums, appear when the search box is used? :)
Marco.
Ah, that's better! I've never even seen that before... I was just using the little search box :doh:
Excellent :thumbsup:
I'd disable that other box, Tim, as it's distracting and now seems pointless.
Marco.

Ooo, now that has me interested, scrobbling to Last.fm, nice one Tim :)

Hi all ,
I tried plugging a USB drive (my passport ) into the pi and updated the mpd but after updating for quite a while I can't see any music on the drive. Is there a trick to this?
Hi George,
Which version of Moode?
Try turning on "Max USB current 2X" in System config.
-Tim
Hi Tim,
Glad to say I've got TR7 up and running fine but one thing I have noticed from TR5 onwards is that when you apply an MPD config it fails to connect but after refreshing the page all is ok on Chrome, with Firefox it asks you to reconnect which sometimes works and sometimes shows page unavailable requiring a refresh which then shows the changes as completed.
Running on a Pi2 with the Hifiberry Dac+
Cheers,
Alistair
Hello,
I've got my third build up and running with the DAC listed above. I was wondering if there was any way to use the headphone out on the pi or if it is permanently disabled when I installed the Hifiberry
Right now there is no sound available at that output.
Thanks for your help.
George
Hi George,
Can't have both the Pi audio out and DAC audio out active at same time. Options are to use IQaudioIO Pi-DAC+ which has integrated headphone port or use a USB DAC that has headphone out.
Btw, the audio out on the Pi is really poor quality anyway.
-Tim

Great work, Tim! I shall try 2.6 out very soon.
A suggestion for a next version: would it be possible to add the ability to record from radio streams? This would, of course, also need a way of scheduling specific programmes, for example to record BBC Proms concerts from the 320k stream. I already do this using Node.js and VLC (via its command line interface) on a Mac, but having it built into Moode would be very cool. Not sure if it would be do-able?
