Noob's question: how do you transfer files from your computer/smartphone to the USB disc connected to the Raspi (with Moode)?
Samba?

If you have a lot of stuff to go on its better to take the disc to the pc and copy it in that way. If its just a few then id use samba...if your putting 50 album on it will take all day...seems to alter the bandwidth in some way too

Ok.
I have the Raspi wired so... I hope it doesn't take too long to move a few albums.

Yes, thats how it is configured on Moode distro.

To access the USB share for example:

Windows client:
- File explorer, map z: \\moode\USB

Mac client
- Sidebar, Shared, All, dbl click into moode then USB --or--
- Finder, Go, Connect to server..., cifs://moode/USB

Linux client
- mkdir /mnt/moodeusb
- mount -t cifs //moode/USB /mnt/moodeusb
when done using the share
- umount /mnt/moodeusb
- rmdir /mnt/moodeusb

Hi,

I have lots of rechargeable AA batteries and I thought I could make a small powerbank using them to charge my phone. I know it may only charge it once per charge, since my batteries (Eneloops) are "only" 2000mAh, but... well... I like to do this things.
And so I ordered this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/111814363258


But then I also thought I could use it to power my Raspi.
Since I'm not using wireless, just 1 or 2 USB discs (both self-powered), I thought it could feed them for a good few hours, at least.

Do any of you have an idea of the Raspi 2 power consumption?
Listening to music or watching movies makes a lot of difference regarding power consumption?

Also, I'm not sure if the battery case has some type of electronics to "garantee" 5V output, but I'd say it doesn't and I could count with a clean battery power output.
What do you guys think?


Thanks,
Luis

(Dumb question again, I guess)

Is it possible to watch movies using MoOde?
