Hi,

Ah, never thought of that, its too early lol.

Glad you've sorted it, I'll wait and see what you think of 2.4 before I try it [emoji6]

Mike.

Also problematic in Chrome on Mac. I had to use Safari to get the download link.

Happy to report that v2.4 works a treat. Nice work, Tim!

Adding a Spotify client would make it even better! :-)

Rob

Not carded it up yet but will do so soon .wasat a preview of my daughters halloween party... Looking really spooky in daytime. Lol

Hi Tim

Sadly the BBC_HD_Stations.m3u test didn't work. The MPD load command caused the stations to appear in the playlist, but none of them played (this was using your latest 2.4 release)

Hi Rob,

Thanks for the feedback :-)

You can always use Airplay receiver on Moode to play streaming music services. This way you get all the nice features of the music services native UI plus if you have multiple Pi's u get synchronized multi-room audio !

If you get a few moments, try the BBC test in my earlier post. I think I can get the BBC HLS streams supported in Moode if I can figure out whats going on with the "official" m3u8 links.

Btw, it might be stale Browser cache thats causing issue with the updated moodeaudio.org. After I upload the new pages, I always have to refresh Browser to get the new pages and popups to show.

Regards,
Tim

Hi Rob,

Very odd. I'll investigate.

Are there any more of the PLS links for BBC?

Tim

Understood that I could use Airplay. However, doesn't Airplay package up things as an Apple Lossless 44.1/16 format? I'd rather have the raw 320k stream direct from Spotify

Hi Rob,

Yes, Airplay resamples to 16/44.1 if necessary and uses Apple Lossless (ALAC) container format. The transport protocol is RAOP which is Apple's version of standard RTSP. Apple added device authentication and AES stream encryption.

Compressed audio formats are decoded to 16/44.1 anyway so as long as no resampling is being done in the audio pipeline ahead of Airplay it will just use the 16/44.1 samples coming out of the codec.

Regards,
Tim

Moode 2.4 now running fine..excellent in fact ... Think it may just be foo but it sounds better than the 2.2 issue i was running in this pi... Only issue was getting it to findcand read the hdd. Had to switch it off then back on for some reason..

Thanks Tim for another top job

Thanks Tim - I was wondering if I was fretting over nothing :-)

BTW Grant - I had delivery of one of those Anker power supplies and am now powering the Pi with it, and using my lashed together 8XAA battery supply to power the Caiman II. Had the house to myself earlier and able to crank the sound up to nice levels. My system is sounding phenomenal now - incredible clean sound and detail that I've not heard before on tracks I've known for years :-)
